Thread: Am I out of touch with reality?

  1. #11
    In 2015 Rado (Swatch) Canada charged me $300 CAD, less than $250 USD, to put a new and freshly serviced 2836-2 chronometer into a Diastar, polish the bracelet and ship it halfway across Canada. That price included the 2836-2 Rado marked chronometer movement. So I personally think that's too much.

    Does one exclude the other?

    No, that's way too much for servicing a generic movement.
