My Dad, who as you may know worked for Ford, always admired those Cummins engines. He said the trucks would literally be falling apart around a still perfectly running engine. No idea what the service will cost on the GS. My watchmaker took the back off with my permission, and he said that the movement looked almost identical to a Rolex perpetual. He charges $300 for a Rolex service, so I may just get him to do it (or his son if he's retired by then). Roger.
