Jubilee Bracelet destretch service

I'm at a point where my 1989 jubilee 2-tone bracelet needs "destretched". I bought it new in 1989 with my Datejust. This was my first luxury watch, so it has some sentimental value. I live in the USA.

I've noted a couple of sources for this work, but am looking to see what other TRUSTED sources there may be. There doesn't seem to be a sticky post of these sources for such work here on the Rolex forum. I'd prefer someone here in the USA, but I'm OK with shipping abroad as well if this is the best way to go. I only want a source that does it in-house and does not ship to a third party.

Sources I know of
  • Michael Young of Classic Watch Repair - Seems to be the most highly recommended person to go to. They are in Hong Kong.
  • Rolliworks - Miami, FL. I'm seeing both good and bad reviews of their service. Of course I realize people tend to post bad reviews and not good ones.
  • Watchguys - Big Youtube/social media presence, so they come up a lot on a google search. Doesn't mean they are any good at it, jut well known.
.
The list goes on of course, but I'm looking for someone that replaces the pins, pays attention to their tightness and does some physical compressing (destretching) of the links when needed.
