They will do a fantastic job, 6 week turnaround at the moment if my recently serviced Sub is anything to go by.
A chance conversation with a colleague yesterday resulted in him bringing this into the office today. He hasn't worn it for a few years as it doesn't run. It was dropped going through airport security and he wasn't sure where to get it fixed, so it's been in a drawer(!) since then.
It looks to be in decent condition for it's age, he said he wore it every day from new until it was damaged.
Can the panel suggest anywhere in the North East (Newcastle) to get it looked at, or would the consensus be the Rolex Service Centre?
Thanks all.

Is cost a concern ? Probably there’s no better option than Rolex themselves, but there will be cheaper options.
There someone in Old Eldon Sq who does them , wasn’t competitive when I needed mine doing, went to Northern Goldsmiths and they sent it down to Rolex.
Genesis Watchmaking are in Brampton, Cumbria. They are Rolex approved and can’t come more highly recommended by myself and many, many others on here.

£550 for a full service via Rolex, with the watch expected to be returned by end January (just asked the question myself earlier this week).

I picked up my Submariner from Pragnells today 6 weeks after taking it in for service by RSC. Cost was £580.
I don’t mean to divert the thread, but does anyone know how much would be added to the base price of c.£550 by the replacement of dial, hands, and bezel?
If you get your watch serviced by Rolex via your AD, is the price the same? Subject to price, that's an option and takes away the risk of getting the watch to Rolex Service Centre

Confirms service cost (July this year) £550 (inc VAT).
Thank you for that... £3000! Presumably, hopefully, that was almost everything replaced (including bracelet?) other than the movement?
