RSC will replace it when you send it for service.

Another question come to my mind,  anyone service their daily watch every other ten yrs? Or more or less? My pam last abt ten yrs then it stops.  :'(

The gasket life interval is shorter than 5 years. We should check the gasket before the service interval isn’t it?

I have to share some information here:

govbergwatches.com/blog/water-resistance-damage/ (http://govbergwatches.com/blog/water-resistance-damage/)

prestigetime.com/page.php?waterresistance (http://prestigetime.com/page.php?waterresistance)

According to both of the articles, we should have water resistance check annually. So, shall we check the watch annually? Or is it fine to just ignore it?
