Had another place check it out, and they sent it to the main Rolex hub for a better look. The case had been tweaked a bit and needed to be replaced. They obviously did a great job, the watch looked better than new when we got it back, had all new paperwork due to the new serial# etc. but it took around 4 months and cost upwards of 4K, for what should have been a simple service.
this is just wrong. even rolex doesnt recommend servicing in this short of intervals.

ive serviced thousands of watches and most quality watches serviced with the proper oils and greases dont notice any timing changes in 5+ years.
