Wristwatch Collectors out there...?

I am very disappointed with Rolex here in the Philippines. Their attitude is way different than those in Hongkong or Singapore. The Service people here at RSC Makati exhibit contempt at the costumer seeking service for their watches, and they charge exorbitant rates because according to them, you own such a watch, therefore, service cost should also match. Ridiculous rhyme..

When I was in France, when I told them a story about my watch, they even offered free service.

well... it is more fun in the Philippines.

That is the problem with monopoly. They are the only RSC in Philippines and they think there is nowhere for us to run to.
As i said dili ko kaayo kuntento sa service nila. When i got the watch back, the bezel was black bezel. I have to wait another hour for the correct bezel!
Wala koy plano pailisan ang dial kay ganahan kog orig.
Dili daw sila muservice if dili pailisan ang dial kay basig matangtang daw ang mga luminous dots ug muadto sa sulod maguba noon ang relo. Such stupid fake concern.
Wala koy choice kay buak man pud ang iya flexi glass so i need to have it serviced gyud otherwise the watch will be useless.
Most accessible oversea RSC would be Hongkong or Singapore unya balikan nalang 1 month after.
So i decided not to have my other watch serviced.

Very well said sir... I agree with you on the monopoly thing.

taympa sir.. what do you mean nabuak ang plexiglas? Sapphire crystal na ang gigamit sa orig nga rolex, I think dili na plexiglass.. or basin sayop ko sir.

Nope. The 16750's are flexiglass (acrylic crystal) not sapphire glass
The sapphire are on caliber 3085 year 1985.
