Another happy LAWW customer
Just received my watch back from LA Watch Works and am incredibly happy with my experience. Start to finish they were a class act. Great communication, on time turn around, and most importantly, incredible work.
I sent them my 16570 after RSC completely ruined my case the the last time they service it - 2013. At least one of the worse jobs I've seen. Now I'm not one to baby my watches, especially this one, but it drove me bonkers every time I was reminded of their botched work (almost daily lol). Though, I held out from trying to getting it corrected as I figured Rolex would correct the geometry the next time it was sent in for a service. Fast forward till about a year ago, I started seeing LAWW work all over the forum and was impressed with their capabilities. Sent mine in for a spa treatment and very satisfied with the results. Below are some before and after shots: |

Spa treatment seems to be a good investment for the watch and your piece of mind! Well done!

What did they do- laser welding or just a proper polish?

It's a shame to see RSC will leave you high and dry like that, but what a difference! Good to know about this resource - my Tudor BB was refinished by some monkey with sand paper before I bought it pre-owned.

Question. The numbers on the bezel. They look darker/more black then before. Is that something that they are able to fix, too? The color/paint on explorer II are starting to fade after years of wearing and polishing. Curious if they paint/dye them for you. |

Glad to hear you had great communication. That was not my experience (poor communication and timelines blown), but I really liked the guys and they did a great service. Good news. The watch looks absolutely fantastic. Enjoy it!

Wowza! Love those chamfers!
Did you have a movement service done as well, or just a refinish of the case and bracelet?
