I thought that you made a joke!

Because supporting vendor (gen rolex parts and so on...) alberto.86 on RG sold these for ~$150...

:unsure:

GBP 20 sounds great, I´ve seen them for sale on rep-forums for much more as well. Sounds like a good deal (and def. an argument pro-gen Tudor), but pls. report back once You´ve exchanged and paid for it, the Lady on the phone could´ve made a mistake.

That's no the first time I hear something like this.
I know someone who broke the crystal on his AP Diver, paid $50 to replace it at the Florida service center!!!

20$ the bezel included changing it sound quite strange....
or is it just 20$ for the work since it's easy...?

I vaguely remember looking at my receipts and other TRF posted service receipts from ADs or RSCs that it seems that replacement parts were also quite reasonable and nowhere near what they sell for on the open market, but the old parts must be sent back in exchange. Maybe prices of parts bought outright are high since these manufacturers have a policy of exchange only. Can anyone with some insight enlighten us?

And you have to turn the watch in. If you lost the bezel or made some deep scratchas they will also see if a service is needed because of the impact that probably resulted in the bezel problem. So without a gen watch its not possible to get a bezel insert beside if you search eBay or different forums. Then you can also ad a 0 on the end to the price.
