Have anyone serviced their AP before?

What is the estimated service cost? Just found out that my AP ROO does not move anymore despite it has been in the winder.

Its on their website, likely one thousand-ish for typical 3-hand service. Restoring the Octogonal multi- facets of the bezel and case requires more work than say a rolex, at least. Refinishing costs are separate.

How much for a Rolex sub full service.. almost 1k right.

For the price difference between an AP and Rolex, its reasonable. The AP costing a lot more to service misconception is still doing its rounds on the internet. Of course if you buy a 2nd piece with no knowledge of its history and get a few k bill for service, that's asking for trouble. Same goes with any watch that needs major parts replacements.

My experience with AP is not good too.. Lucky got ride of it within warranty period.. Likely I got a lemon pc.

So far from my knowing and oversea forums is that mostly problematic models included ROO and the legendary 15202st..so far didn't see any one having problem with 15300 and 15400ST..think both are quite robust movements..

I too have read that the 2121 movement in the 15202 may have some issues (JLC movement if I remember)

The 3120 movement in 15400 is quite ok.

AP servicing costs are known to be one of the highest.

Is the 15400ST movement in-house?
