16178 President service question

Hey All,

This is my first post but my mom has a 1984 16178 that needs service before she sells it. I know some people on the forums are known for servicing Rolexes but I'm not sure how to find who they are so I figured I would ask.

Thanks a bunch!

Why service it if you are selling anyway?

It's off by alot, she doesn't put it on her winder at night then it will be really off in the morning. The rotor also sounds really loud so I'm sure something is wrong there.

Welcome to the Forum!
Can you verify the model number?
If you provide your location that may help members recommend someone to service the watch.
However, as pointed out, if you are going to sell why go through the expense, instead give that option to the new buyer and their preferred watchmaker...
