Can someone help interpret timegrapher readings on my 8500?

Lol, not quite the case. When I authorized the service, they added on the cost of the crystal replacement to the estimate. $700 for service, $200 for crystal replacement. Grand total $900.

I'm not complaining - this is my first service experience with a luxury watch brand. What I'm learning is that it's not much different than getting service for a luxury vehicle, except that with cars, they over-explain the situation for the inevitable upsell. Thankfully, I know my cars well enough to call their BS. In this case, there was no upsell by any means, just the stark lack of a comprehensive explanation for the uninitiated like me. Thus, ΩF to the rescue to educate me. Soon I'll know enough to offer my own educated opinions.

The only thing I would say is, be careful around water, because if it leaks and the dial gets damaged, then that is not covered under a normal service cost.
