Toronto: Warranty service?

My LV is running a steady +6 seconds a day. I have 4 months left on the warranty. I'd like to have it regulated under warranty in Toronto. Where do you suggest/recommend I take it, and why? Thanks!

You can walk it right in to Rolex Canada or if it's too long of a trip take it to your local AD. They can always ship it or if they have a Rolex certified watchmaker....maybe they can do something on site.

Was your LV always running that fast ever since you got it, or did it just start doing this?

Yes, I know. My question is, which is preferable, and why? And which AD do you recommend over the others?

Depends on where you live. Any warranty work can be done through an AD. I did it once for a Tudor.
I'll send you a PM.

it can be done on site, but I would have had it done 3months after I bought it at most, even though they can argue it's within COSC albeit at the far extreme of the spectrum. Even my ETAs are +2 - +6

I did mention it to the AD where I bought it and they weren't encouraging. I know its within spec.s but just barely, and I wasn't inclined to be too assertive that day. I decided to give it more time to see if it changed at all, but its been utterly consistent. I also thought that if I left it until near the end of the warranty, I might get a bit of polishing and a cleanup, and maybe more if they saw the need to give it a full service.
Now I'm trying to decide which Toronto location would be best. I know it can be regulated to near perfect. Just need to find the right perfectionist for the job.
