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 :)

its probably a good move for Rolex...

we seldom hear Rolex have problems in 5 years

i think this will attract more buyers

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

rolex vs omega

its decade war....

omega raised standard on all their in house in recent years
accuracy, reliability...

hence rolex is responding on warranty period

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.
