St. Louis rolex certified or trained watchmaker?

Any recommendations I am possibly buying a used sub in the next week or so. I would like to find a reliable person to take it to for just a general look over to authenticate and make sure everything is in general working order. Any advice would be helpful....

Thanks, guys

Well any good watchmaker could look at your watch its just a mechanical movement like many others.There is nothing different in the Rolex movement in many ways its easier to service maintain because of the way its built.The problem lies with Rolex having such a strangle hold on its parts supply.And once the back is off there is no mistaking a genuine Rolex movement.But before you buy it would be better to get it authenticated by AD if you are not sure its genuine etc.
