Maintenance service
Dear all,
I have my 5970 in the bank vault and do not intend to wear it. I wonder whether I should send it for regular service every 5 years. I was told that watch value would be depreciated after service if it is auctioned. The case may get scratched or polished. Safety is another issue as it has to be sent to Geneva for sevice. I appreacite to have yoour opinion.
Thanks.
