Authentication of Rolex watch in Birmingham

[m-abz-t]

Hi All, my first post

I was considering buying a Rolex watch over the internet / preowned.. even if it is saving a few hundred pounds.

I have had a few sellers willing to meet up in Birmingham (where I live) to get the watch and paper work checked to see if it is authentic. I realise the best way is sending it to Rolex themselves to get it checked and authenticated.

But can anyone recommend any place in Birmingham / Jewellery Quarter that will actually check the watch / paper work for me? I have called around different Jewellers in jewellery Quarter and also official Rolex retailers in town but no one will do it!

I'm starting to give up buying preowned Rolex watches... I also realise there are recommended sellers on these forums but was wondering how to get the watches checked.

Thanks
