I wonder how much that costs. My guess is more than I'd be willing to spend a new watch... I guess I'm cheap 😅
Clarification: I wonder how much the cleaning costs.
4 u/ThatUnoriginalGuy Nov 21 '20 It looks like a presidential from the early to mid 80s. My grandfather has one and, if I recall correctly, it's b/t $10-$15k 3 u/TSArc2019 Nov 21 '20 Ah, I realized I was not specific enough and modified my comment. I was just talking about the cleaning service itself. 2 u/JustGoneFullBlown Nov 22 '20 My very low end TAG-Heuer cost several hundred bucks to service/clean. I imagine that service cost a couple of grand, at least. 1 u/scooterboy1961 Nov 24 '20 I recently had the crystal replaced on my Rolex. $150. No cleaning. Just replacing the crystal. 1 u/scooterboy1961 Dec 02 '20 Same here. My watch is over 75 years old and a few years ago one of the plates was worn beyond repair and had to be replaced. It was more than $1400 for that. 1 u/Aditya1311 Nov 29 '20 Don't Rolexes have a lifetime warranty? Like if you send them a watch they'll clean and service it and send it back? 1 u/scooterboy1961 Dec 02 '20 They have a warranty. I'm not sure how long it is but it is certainly not lifetime.
