Why should I have my Rolex serviced?
Rolex recommends having your watch serviced (or overhauled) every 3 to 5 years. A Rolex watch consists of over 200 parts working together, within tolerances measured in microns (thousandths of a millimeter). The day to day movement of these parts causes friction -- whether it be the metal to metal or even metal to jewel (ruby) contact -- and requires proper lubrication to avoid failure.
Over time, the oils and greases used for this lubrication can break down, or dry up. This can result in coagulation (or hardening), which can affect the accuracy of your watch, and even cause subsequent damage to the movement's tiny parts.

Furthermore, dried-out seals and gaskets can become hard and cracked, and thus result in a loss of the watch's water resistance. If this happens, and water enters the watch and starts to rust, the movement could become unserviceable and result in a complete loss. At this point the watch has to go back to Rolex for a complete movement replacement. We see this about once a year, and the typical bill will run around $1,200 to $1,800.
Unfortunately, most people are under the misconseption "if it ain't broke don't fix it." This can be a very costly mistake, as some people wear their watches for years without having them serviced. Apparently, they feel that just because it's a high-quality watch for some reason it doesn't need to be serviced.
Would you drive your car for 5 to 10 years without having it serviced, or even having the oil changed? Of course you wouldn't, and it doesn't matter if it's a Chevy or a BMW. The fact is, mechanical devices (regardless of price) require regular servicing in order to stay in working order. If you don't have this service done it will likely result in a very costly service bill down the road -- pay now or pay (more) later.
