First timer...so let me apologize in advance for anything i screw up.

Could i get some recommendations for some some independent Rolex watch repair shops for a couple of my Vintage? (1950-1970) watches? I'm not pleased with results i've read about RSC updating vintage watches.

Few shops i've found have a couple bad BBB complaints so I thought personal experience here might be the best bet.
Thanks

You run a big risk with non Rolex authorized service, such as fixing your watch with after market parts, and in some cases even swapping out some of your good parts for after market parts. Beware!

Well, I think the issue is if he has a Rolex that is from 1950, the RSC in the USA may not service it?
