Nothing wrong with opening the case - it's designed to be opened and resealed without any issue

Anyway, if you bring to Top Hour, he can even tell you if it's been opened before or not hahah

Rolex service centre scratches watches too. Every piece (of mine) that has gone through them had new scratches around the lug area. But I'm not bothered by it.

If you ever tried to change out the Rolex bracelet yourself, you'd know it's inevitable. Coming back from there with zero scratches means luck is on your side, or you simply didn't look close enough.

Many considerate watchmakers will paste sticker tape on lugs first before removing spring bar.... Not just for Rolex but every watch....

It's a matter of respecting their clients who chose them to do their precious watch.

Sadly such etiquette is missing these days. Maybe it's just Singapore, I dunno.

Yeah i don’t really mind...because that’s the only way to ensure authenticity. But i guess bro Gazar’s concern is he’s worried that the waterproof is not up there once the case back is opened.

Haha solid ah the technician, really experienced 👍

Congrats

I am still shopping around for mine

Thinking of waiting for the latest release with the 70-hour reserve but suspect will have to pay through my nose :(

I was thinking whether i should wait for the 3235 movement too. But my concern is they might not release the original hulk with the 3235. Maybe gold hulk or half gold, so i’ve decided to grab it now. Anw it’s all about speculation lol


Haha bro...work harder can liao. No need to pay through your nose 😁

I am not too concerned cos the watch is over-engineered to remain water proof hahah

But yes, Mr Lim is very experienced hahah

Well, if not, I can still go look for the current model

Paying through my nose due to the mark up - will feel a bit "beh song" :s13:

Yep this 116000 is the sweet spot for me especially at the size and price. Hidden gem in the Rolex lineup imo.
