A number of years ago...Just before vintage Rolex prices went through the roof...There was a lot of talk about "servicing issues" in regard to parts becoming scarce in the not to distant future, etc......
I haven't heard any talk on the subject recently.....???
Thoughts??

Just had a lot done to my 1680 Red. Went to Bob Ridley, no issue getting anything.

Well, for any exotic dialed pieces, the US RSC's will still not touch them. The San Francisco RSC, which is separate from RUSA, will service just about anything without the RUSA BS. As mentioned above, Bob also does great work.

Again with Bob Ridley. Serviced my 1019 and had it done inside of a week.

I went with Dalton. No issues with mine, either.

Any watchmaker with a Rolex parts account should be able to service your watch.
