Omega has upped their Co-axial to 4 years and rolex figured it has to do something. the catch probably you what the their customers already paid, year to year price increment :)

I inherited 1970s rolex 6694 from my father and it still works well without any problem!

Agree.... Having said that, i would be much more comfortable placing my money with rolex compared to omega..... I would never buy new omega but certainly do not mind buying used, usually with a large haircut depending on the model.....

Good news...
But Rolex that is well known for their bulletproof-ness so to speak...
Rolex giving out 5 year warranties is like Toyota giving out 5 year warranties... redundant... hahaha...
but welcomed nonetheless...

On top of the extended warranty, they also lengthened the service interval recommendation from 3 to 10 years.

10 years!  :thumbsup:

Sounds like you quite a frequent caller to rsc. Lol. If you make any call again, can help ask how long the warranty will be after serviced by rsc? Hehe.
