sprite Report post Posted August 15, 2011 Don't have a real good before picture but this should give you some idea (first picture, actually a year old so add another year of wear to it): The case was scratched to hell from wearing it almost daily for 5 years. The crystal was scratched, the strap was worn out. Picked the watch up today after a complete service: New crystal, all scratches removed, new band, all gaskets/seals replaced as well as a complete overhaul. Watch came back looking like it had never been worn before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprite Report post Posted August 15, 2011 How much is that restoration? It came out to $2,100 with taxes, but the watch came back looking like it has never been worn before, was even wrapped like a new watch. I've seen BMWRACER mention slow turnaround at the AP service center, my watch was only there for 2 months though. I was expecting a longer wait.

Chipster Report post Posted August 16, 2011 Very nice! After all my talk about never spending that kind of money for a new AP I find myself really wanting one lately. Someday! They did an amazing job! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFilipinoStig Report post Posted August 26, 2011 I haven't had one noticeable scratch on my crystal sapphire on my Tag, yet. And the SS surround is still brand-new looking. Daily watch. You must have beat the HELL out of your AP to get the face that bad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpohl402 Report post Posted January 29, 2012 ^^ Is that not allowed ? Haven't been on here much recently due to birth of little one, and also starting to become increasingly interested in high-end watches.... any skin off your back for me to post ?

vyce77 Report post Posted January 29, 2012 .... any skin off your back for me to post ? Would you like me to replace the front page of your newspaper with a six month old story you already read for no reason, other than the fact I would like you to know I just read it?

jpohl402 Report post Posted January 29, 2012 ^ Alright, understandable. I will pay closer attention to the dates, and not make posts unless they are more contributing that a simple, basic comment - i.e. if something more to offer that is credible. Sorry to bother you, and thanks for enlightening me. Regards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
