I've only had my Rolex GMT Master II for 17 years. I had to have the crystal replaced once and cleaned at the same time. It still looks brand new and keeps great time. I did have the work done at the dealer my wife bought the watch at. It was expensive as I reall. I get t pressure tested on occassion, when the Rolex dealer offers to do it for free.
Most of the Rolex knockoffs that I have seen were battery operated and if you watched the second hand it didn't tick like the real Rolex it moved with that jerky motion one second at a time. I was always going to buy one of them in Hong Kong when I passed through there but never did. I've seen them in Mexico too.
