Repair Referal

Looking for suggestions of repair people outside of Rolex head office that restore, fix and polish beat up ones.

I believe I have seen a gentleman who is out of Texas mentioned on this board in the past.

Thx

I can recommend Dalton Toledo out of LA. [email protected]

I hear great things about Bob Ridley. He's the one you've heard about out of Texas.

Dfw

I understand that Bob Ridley is in the DFW (maybe Arlington) area. I have used Dallas Watch and Jewelry for years. They have done four services on different Rolexes during the last 18 months for me.

Typically, the cost is about $370 if no parts are needed. As part of the service they polish things nicely.

You're best to go local for this type of work.
I know this great watchmaker at 2 West 46th St. Suite 308. I've have my rolex's repaired countless times, they're always on top of everything.
I'm actually going there either today or tomorrow to get my explorer II serviced.
