If you look at the thread below, there is a watchmaker on the list in the Chicago area. YOu can check them out.
How long has it been since you had a service on the watch? The length of time between services should determine if you need an adjustment or an overhaul. https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...hmakers&page=3 |

It sounds like it needs a service. If the seller didn't say it was recently serviced, then it likely hasn't been serviced recently. Sometimes even if the seller said it was serviced it might have only been cleaned and oiled and adjusted. I typically get my watches serviced when I acquire them if they are pre-owned.
Send it to Rik Dietel in Fla. His service costs start well less than the $650
