Welcome to TRF! If you were in the U.S. I'd recommend Bob Ridley, start by first posting some pictures here

A Rolex Service Center may very well still service your watch, but if so, be sure to specify that they don't touch the dial and hands (or bezel insert) or polish the watch (depending on the condition now, of course). Usually, unless the tritium is flaking, they will just service the movement, replace the crystal, crown, and case tube as part of a routine service. Sometimes they will just service the movement (per customer request), but their warranty will specify that water resistance is not covered.
