What's up fellas I've always lurked this thread, but now I'm actively shopping for a pre-owned Rolex. Found a listing on Rolex forums that I'm going to check out this weekend. Watch is from 2015 comes with box and warranty card, but no service history. I plan to daily it (work, workout, swim, bike, literally everything). For a watch that will end up taking a beating, is no service an issue or should I just send it out as soon as I buy which changes my out of pocket, and delays when I can get it on wrist. Any insight on pre-owned purchase is appreciated

rolex service interval is now 10 years so if everything is fine and working by cosc standard then you're good to go

hell even if its older than 10 years old id only get it serviced if there's a problem

with that said since you said you might swim with it, id just get the gaskets and seals and makes sure those are good

If it’s keeping good time then no need to service

that and as long as the gears sound good when you manually wind it, you're straight

I like the idea. Really can’t relax till I get something locked. What’d you do summer after jr. year?

Can anyone help me determine the value of this watch? It’s a new citizen eco drive watch looks just like a two tone Rolex with stones in face. Thanks

Put the rubber on and hated it at first. It’s grown on me since then though.
