[QUOTE="CC379, post: 3803238, member: 25394"] watched this rolex repair video a few weeks ago, lots of interesting tools, screws so tiny you would probably need a magnifying glass to see. [MEDIA=youtube]xasm3GFL7mM[/MEDIA] cool spring winder at about 25:00 interesting comments on rolex at 29:00 back in the early 70's my dad was sold a used rolex by a local jeweler after he had broken several wrist watches, the jeweler told him he would never break a rolex, he never broke the watch, but he did break the crystal I think twice and a third time he melted or smeared the crystal while cutting steel with a torch, back then I think it was about $150 to replace the crystal, so he put the rolex away and went back to wearing cheap watches the last time I mentioned a broken crystal on a rolex 2 members on this forum questioned if it was even possible to break a rolex crystal, the thread was locked before I could reply. if it is impossible to break a rolex crystal i am not sure why rolex sells replacement crystals and has instructions on how to replace a broken crystal?
