Get it in to Hannover Square.
Be prepared for a little shock when the estimate comes through. My friend's AP RO Chrono cost was estimated at £932 for a service including a few "low cost" parts. He did smooth talk them down to £850 though and the watch came back in pristine order with a guarantee, I think 2 years.

E- Series was sold thru 91-97 if i remember correctly.
Could be time for a service if you don't know the service history on it.

Your Avatar states you are London based? Try Official Watches in north London, you can google them. They have a watchmaker onsite who is Rolex and AP trained. I have used him with my AP's in the past and he is very good. Best of luck.
