Check out the vintage section here: http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=180461

Several great sellers and repair shops too

Edit: my apologies this is a list of dealers. Try ABC Watch Werks, they have a great reputation here.

Be weary of making that recommendation reflexively. LA Watchworks is now the prefered shop for many knowledgable collectors.

Based on the two recommendations given so far, I would prefer LA Watch Works. I'm sure there are many reputable repair facilities out there, but LA Watch Works has a staff of very fine professionals based on my experience.

Take care to note that LA Watch Works and ABC Watchwerks, both located in Los Angeles, are two entirely different entities.
