I had a new screw the last time my Aerospace was serviced and it was only £36 :mouthdrop: - but that was not a gold screw, only Ti.

I'm sorry, for a second there I thought I read that it costs £36............. FOR ONE SCREW!!!!!!!!!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

That is frankly daylight robbery! Especially since I was quoted by an AD only £120 for a Bentley Motors T bezel. The cynic in me might suggest that people may need screws more often than bezels, so it's probably quite a nice money-spinner. :roll:


To be fair that probably included the labour to fit as well - what about 2 minutes!

I'm a bit more careful now!

It's an expensive hobby we have - eh? But don't you just love 'em?

Careful?? I think I'm going to wrap all mine in cotton wool from now on and buy a G-Shock to wear everyday! :shock: OK, so I'm kidding, but that is some serious expense!
