1) the neighbourhood watch can assist you in resizing your bracelet if they have the experience and the right tools.
2) you can visit any local AD to seek assist. they will not charge you.
3) you can bring the watch itself only to RSC without box, papers/warranty card. they can do it for you.
4) you can do it on your own. why not?

You can always get one from the Rolex Garage thread in the forum. The prices are quite attractive. Go look around. =)

Alternatively, I am now contemplating to sell it off and get a DSSD. So If you are really interested, we can work out a fair price.

Yeah, understand, but I only can afford one watch, so have to offload my 16570 first, before going to the next logical upgrade, with topup of course.

I also want !!! How much did you pay for it ?

Thought its UV that is no good, not LED light

i think you might be right cos older light cure machines might have uv.

i dont know how true this is but i read watchwerkz posts that charging using led is not the right way.

one of the reasons i can think of is led is used as a light cure device in dentistry work. this is used to dry up the dental fillings they place in your teeth. it is also used in nail salons to dry nail polish. based on this i would think that high exposure to led might age the lume markers prematurely.

not sure if the lubricant in the watch will be affected too.

LED should not be confused with THE HARMFUL UV Light ( Ultra Violet ). same ones that make your white shirt glow in the night clubs.

Beautiful ilum shot! Remember never to charge the indices using led light. It's actually harmful to the watch.

Really ?

Why is this so?

Hi guys, can anyone confirm the latest servicing cost at Rolex for the previous explorer II (16750)? Someone posted in the servicing thread tt Rolex has increased the cost from $790 to $920 for his sub! Urggg!!!

i heard it has increased. why don't you give a call to RSC to get an indication on where the price will start from.
