They give the impression they have a "service department" stuffed with watchmakers but they don't service the expensive watches they sell, and even offer watch servicing to the public.
Modern oils really don’t dry out and if the watch runs fine it doesn’t need a service. That’s why they give two years warranty on second hand goods.
I have some Rolex watches running more than two decades without service and zero issues. That is quite common.

Their warranty is as good as any other including the one from the RSC. If it doesn’t work they will fix it. Why is that worthless ?
