Authenticate a Rolex in Chicago

Hello!

I am looking to purchase my first Rolex. I found a no-date sub that I really like, but it doesn't have papers. So I am wondering if I could get some recommendations on which shops in the Chicago area that I can take my Rolex to verify its authenticity.

Thank you, fellow Chicagoans.

Cheers

Peter

Good Morning Peter, Welcome to TRF but you did post this request in the wrong category on TRF. This section is for when members decide to get together somewhere here in the United States or in other parts of the world.....

I can give you an answer tho, in a few minutes when my phone charges up a bit...as the information is stored on my phone and it needs charging up a bit first.....

Not yet. Still hunting, but learning lots along the way. Will post some photos when I acquire a watch.

By the sound of your initial post it reads as though you already have acquired the sub but apparently not.... As stated above just post pictures of the piece you are looking to acquire
