Dear Bro,
I just came from a pre owned watch dealer yesterday in Chinatown.
I saw 2 pre own boy size watches. But weren't sure the condition except guessing that its okay condition though they have a 1 yr guarantee period.
Kindly advice your thoughts on 2 issues
1) The dial has some not visible via naked eye except for close up using the magnifying glass some very very small fine speck of white smudges. I guess it must the humidity and condensation from cold air on the dial from the previous owner. Is it normal to find that on a dial? If so, can i get the pre owned dealer to clear the dial? The pre-owned dealer says cannot clear the dial. NOt sure if thats sure. By right if you buy from pre-owned, would they do a full servicing including cleaning the dial right?
I not sure should I get this watch becos the the dial having some fine smudges. If its a common sign for most pre-owned watches due to condensation of cold air, then I am not so concern. Pls advice...
2) Saw another pre owned watch. It comes with a Rolex SERVICE certification cert that states the word " OVERHAUL" . The dealer is pretty honest and also told me there is a slight chip on the sapphire glass. I am doubtful if the previous owner has taken care given the impact to cause a chip on the sapphire glass. Also not sure if the word "overhaul" means a total change of ALL parts becos the previous owner did not take care.
Or is it just adding oil or lubricant in all the parts which is typical of servcing in the RSC. hENCE their service certificaiton cert will ALWAYS shows "overhaul" this word. Has anyone send your rolex for regular svcing and kindly check for me if yr svcg cert has a word which says "OVERHAUL" .
Would anyone advice on taking the second option if the svc cert says overhaul and there is a chip in the sapphire glass?
Or is it a normal procedure that RSC will always use the word "OVERHAUL" for all the the service cert issued?
3) Lastly, if I don't trust the pre-owned dealer svcg and wanted to make sure some of the parts are changed using after market parts for replacement purposes. Hence wanted to do a servicing again at RSC, how much would that cost? I know 75 dollar is just for authentication purpose? Wat about doing a svcg in RSC?
Tks
