Would second this. Fully accredited and with a parts account. Rolex send quite a bit of vintage work their way. They did a great job for me.

I'd go with the Mayfair or West Malling RSC, both excellent. If you want an independent, Watchworks Bristol have a good reputation. Try Googling them.

Was recommended Century Watch Repairs in Hertfordshire from several uses on TZ-UK. They are ex Rolex/AP etc and use genuine parts. Did an excellent job service with light polish on my GMT.
