A service is a check up. Regulate, maybe oil the rotor. Check if the watch is okay inside. maybe replace gaskets.

A revision is a full taking apart of the movement. Deep clean. Replace parts.
Well not according to my watch smith. Full service to him means a total disassembly of the movement, cleaning, lubricating and re-assembly. And according to him it's totally not necessary for a newly purchased rep.

But if you want to split hairs with the definition/semantics of one and the other, knock yourself out.

Matter of fact, that's how Rolex does a full service when you send in your watch for a "full service". Total disassembly, cleaning, lubricating, re-assembly and replace any worn parts if needed. That's what they did with my 16710 Pepsi.

LOL! Not according to Rolex.

Look... this is stupid. You want to say it's a revision and that's fine. Rolex and many other watch makers I've dealt with call it a service. I'm not going to argue with you over something stupid like this.

Rolex. In french and German. The official languages of Switzerland. in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, Italy.
Call a small service with a polishing and replacing gaskets a service.

A taking apart and cleaning and putting back together of the movement. Is called a revision.

I really do not care what Americans call it, they call a game where they hold a ball in their hands "foot"ball.

From the Rolex service page link I provided:

"Upon receiving your watch, a member of staff notes any requests you may have. The watch is then sent to a watchmaker.

The movement, still fitted with its dial and hands, is removed from the case – from which the bracelet has already been detached. The movement, case and bracelet will follow separate paths during servicing before being reassembled at the end of the process.

The movement is entirely dismantled and all the parts are carefully examined. Those that no longer meet Rolex requirements are systematically replaced.

Each component is cleaned in an ultrasonic bath to remove all traces of impurities

The cleaned components are dried, after which the movement is entirely reassembled and lubricated. The watchmaker makes the first adjustments to the precision of the movement according to the brand’s accuracy criteria."

Either you comprehend what was published by Rolex or you don't. And if you don't, allora sei veramente una mod edit. Fidati.

How does the new CF compare to the old V4 Noob version? I have the Noob version of this watch and I think it looks really good, but am wondering if CF is a better and worth the upgrade?

Same here. As someone with a Noob I still dont know if it's worth upgrading. I do see big changes in case shape, I think it comes down to dial.

Sure thing ricchione, as said, English speaking people will never know the fine feeling of having specific meanings to certain words.

Like mod edit


Or for example
mod edit

But we can keep it in English and just say this:

Keep it respectful because I'm European and I actually speak the language you pretend to speak, Joey.

Fidati.


Edit: i was a bit too disrespectful, I edited it. Because I used words you probably haven't heard for three generations mister hey I eat pizza I'm an Italian guy.
