Do we need to send our Rolex Submarine for water proof testing every 2 or 3 years?

Erm is there such a need or service provided by RSC for water proof test ?

Thanks.

Are you planning to dive with it?

Was hoping i could but not deep sea diving ...
As other watches like AP advise you to conduct a water proof test every 2 years..

RSC service isn't exactly cheap. If you do not plan to subject your Sub to test its watertightness at depth, and like most people who will just wear the watch as a daily beater, I don't see the Sub being any different than say a Datejust.

singapore RSC does not provide re-seal only service. you have to do a full overhaul.

Est damage for overhaul?

[seizure]

i think 1.25k for sub!

if you use your submariner as a diving watch, would be good to do a leakage check every year and to replace the gaskets if necessary

Hi! I personally dont swim with any of my watches except for my vintage GMT 1675 which went thru an overhaul/service job by Rolex Centre last Jan 2012 and thereafter I dare to take a dip with it in the hotpool during my recent holiday trip to Korea.
But I wont dare with the rest of my other watches. I dont think there is a need to do it unless like what some of our bro here said - you intend to swim or dive with it. Keep the money for better use....hee,hee...
