If the best "replica" version costs $1500 USD, and a Breguet overcoil costs $2000, a parachrom hairsping costs $1,000, a cerachrom bezel $1,500, gold indicies and hands $300-500, genuine box $450 and a cleaning and service of a rolex chronograph is $2000 to remove the dirt and debris from the replica. You end up with a grand total of $8,950. to bring a replica to below basic level Rolex specs without the quality machined parts and warranty. The replica price point is actually a confirmation of the retail rolex price point of $16,900 USD. $8,950. gets you the Best "franken" available but an additional $7,950. gets you the "brand promise" of authenticity, proprietary machined parts assembled by Rolex trained watchmakers, increasing resale value and a lifetime warranty. The "true" price of a modern Rolex is probably around $8000-$9000 USD.

i think you may have found your own niche in the watch category, full servicing of replicas, treated with the same respect given to a genuine.. this vid was actually needed

If that’s a fake, then Rolex needs to hire the crew that manufactured it.

That is incredibly good for a fake, incredibly good. Like where on earth is the rest of the money going in the original?

Like listening to Kenneth Branagh playing Henry V performing a watch service - brilliant. 😀
