only royal oak.

if you buy ROO, shldn't be an issue if you got it at a good price.

servicing is very expensive for ROO

Ive had the Seiko SKX009 for years and love the size of it. Been thinking of saving towards a speedmaster pro or a black bay. They're both sized similar to the SKX009?

Speedmaster there are 42mm and 44mm, blackbay is 41mm.

Basic royal oak full servicing is $1.3k + gst.

ROO is more.

but such watches best is send back to AD to service.

My wife royal oak sent to a shop at lucky plaza for full service + polish - they polished down the bezel , didn't really fix the watch (was running slow), likely didn't install the gasket properly ended up inside face started to tarnish after a few years, ... haizz.

expensive lesson learnt.

Now at AP to replace the parts, get new bezel, get new faceplate, full overhaul, etc.. $5k damage.
