What movement is that? Is that a bartery there? Comes original with see through back? Never seen a see through back on a rolex before. Great piece btw. Very unique.

i dont think thats a see through backcase.probably the OP removed the backcase to show the nice movement inside. ;)

Nice! :thumbsup: Don't see many quartz Rolex in forums. Does RSC still service the watch if it's modified with a see-thru back? I suppose they will not give warranty on WR even if they do service.

Generally, RSC will refuse to carry out servicing on modified watches, unless the 'offending' parts is replaced by them with a correct part.

What they'll do is, they will replace & charge you for the correct caseback and send the see through one back to you.

If you refuse to accept, then they refuse to service.

This is what my friend experienced in the past.
