The AWCI is America's professional organization for the horological industry. The institute was founded in 1960 when regional watchmaking guilds found it in their best interest to organize on a nationwide basis.

Rolex service question / advice
Hi guys,Sorry if this has been covered before.I have asked the RSC in Melbourne to quote a service on my 25 year old datejust. They want to replace the dial and hands stating that the lume has started to crack and may then interfere with the operational parts down the track. Question, I asked to have these parts returned but they refuse to do so. I know it's not a collectible or valuable piece, but is it better to try and keep it as original as possible or freshen it up?Any advise would be appreciated.
