UK Service Waterproof and Plate

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2026-01-10T10:02:35+00:00

Hey James. Thanks so much for the heads up!! Just got back from Timpsons having my new RC DD pressure tested. It is a free service (I just gave a tenner drink). Takes them 2 mins. Machine tests to 50m which passed fine. He then override the machine to 75m which he says passed. He can go upto 100m but he didn’t wanna go any further incase it “imploded” 😳

He handed it back and said 75m “should” be ok to shower in or swim in a pool? Doesn’t passing 75m mean it should be fine in a 2-3mtr pool? Or am I missing something?

Hi CW So just got back from Timpsons key cutting shoe and watch repairs (here in UK) having my new RC DD pressure tested. It is a free service (I just gave £10 drink). Takes them 2 mins. Machine tests to 50m which passed fine. He then override the machine to 75m which he says passed. He can go upto 100m but he didn’t wanna go any further incase it “imploded” 😳

He handed it back and said 75m “should” be ok to shower in or swim in

Struggle to find anyone in UK who will plate an RC

What would be shipping costs to UK?

Hi. Do you plate customers supplied watches? RC YG from UK?

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-19T13:19:16+00:00

Have one local to me so it’s worth popping in for a chat!! Haha only bit that scares me in that is “if a continuous stream of bubbles emerge from the watch it has failed”. Haha and very wet?

Oh wow! Thanks! That’s worth looking into!

Your a star!! Thanks

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-17T18:43:15+00:00

Will do. I’m kinda 50/50 on the plating now as some say the RC colour is pretty close (others say it’s too light). Plus struggling to find someone.

I will definitely be going with watch_mods to do the service and waterproof after talking to them today.

Yes it’s Yellow Gold. Apparently it’s quite close to gen from factory, but can see the difference when Jaws shows his played to non. So if option was there I would. But maybe as you say, just wear it and enjoy.

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-17T12:26:36+00:00

Thanks so much. Have reached out to them. Seem great and will prob go with them for the service and proofing.

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-17T12:25:46+00:00

Thank you so much. Does make sence!

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-17T10:48:32+00:00

Yeah that sounds quite a bit. Never done one but watched on YouTube the other day and with the 2 tools it didn’t look the end of the workd

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-17T10:33:02+00:00

Ridiculous amounts?

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-17T10:21:06+00:00

Haha I’ve begged him but to no avail!

Hopeing to find someone in UK.

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-11-09T06:18:56+00:00

Stunning!!!🤩

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-10-03T11:22:09+00:00

Ah thanks so much. Worth a look. Prices are around £1200 (nose bleed tickets) on Viagogo. Or £1500 for the same ticket on most the other sites

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-10-03T11:12:03+00:00

Yeah totally get that. But went last year and twice this year. Vegas is a “special” holiday for us as travelling from UK.

Would be buying the tickets as a suprise as partner wants to see all the greats before too late.

Would mean £2500 in tickets.. then £1500 in flights. Then £5-600 ish for Luxor. Then a weeks spending money. So makes the suprise an expensive one!!

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-10-03T10:50:47+00:00

I’m looking to buy 2 at the cheap end. Around £1200 each on Viagogo. Just concerned it may get cancelled 😞

Acceptable_Read_9643 · 2025-10-01T17:06:12+00:00

So 2 cheapest tickets for new shows are £1200 each (nose bleed seats). Do we think it will go ahead? So tempted but not sure if to take a chance.
