Rolex Air King Service

[AddledDad]

Goldsmiths want £455 to service my 12 year old Air King. Can this be right? Seems a bit punchy so thought I would consult the wise. Thanks in advance.

A good independent watchmaker using parts from Rolex UK, should be nearer £300 for a full service.

Sounds more like it. I paid £320 4 years ago and that was Garard's. Goldsmith's said that because the watch is more than 10 years old it is classified as 'vintage' and, therefore, the servicing cost increases.
