  • Hey, no judgment, man. But you can only refinish a case a couple of times as often quite a lot of metal is removed.

    the rule of common sense is only do what is necessary for the piece to function as you want it to.

    So the point of my comment to @bobble was that a service carried out by Rolex or Omega will, as a matter of course, include a case refinish whether the watch requires it or not. This is for exactly the reason you state, as well as because customers want to feel like they have a “new” watch again.

  • @freddo Robert Reeves said, included in the full service charge are the steel screw down winder, case tube, mainspring, plexy glass, case seals, refurbish case/ bracelet and that gets a 2 year guarantee. If I go with him, I'll speak about the refurbishment and see if it is necessary

  • I've used Robert Reeves five or six times for a service and he has always been happy to not polish if requested.
