GMT Master II Freshly Serviced from RSC
Turned it in for service on 4 Dec 23, got it back today. It’s a 2008 (M Serial) and has never been serviced before. Had a complete overhaul, new crystal and crown tube, NO polish. Cost $1047.00.

That’s a quick turnaround !
Well worth the price of service
Was it acting up on you or did you just feel it was time
I can never understand the costs of servicing. The watches you can buy for $1047.00 are excellent. Not sure of the retail of the watch in 2008 but imagine that's a big % of what it cost.
Nice!
One of the best rolexes, this one genuinely tempts me, nice- very nice m8.

The hour hand no longer tracked with the GMT hand. Watchmaker said it’s a common problem with older 3186 movements, he replaced the broken part with an upgraded version.

I know! RSC told me since I didn’t get it polished, I saved 3-4 weeks of time.

You are correct, most people never factor in the cost of service. I think this model was around $8K when new. Service is about 13% of the retail price, that’s crazy high.

Thank you! It is truly one of the most versatile models Rolex has ever made, you will not regret the decision.
Rolex servicing is unmatched 👌
