Icon5 Where to have it serviced?

Purchased a Rolex Submariner in fall of 1975. Paid $499.99 + tax. Have had it serviced a couple of times . A few years ago it started running fast so I stopped wearing it.

I would like to start wearing it again, so where would you recommend I to send it to have it cleaned and repaired?

I'll try to post a picture later this week.

if you want it done right and don't mind the cost go to an AD and have them send it to ROLEX themselves. I service all of min at the 5th ave Manhattan ROLEX center (which then gets sent to PA for actual service) They won't touch it if you had any 3rd party modifications done.....bravo to you for having such great taste Thank you for your service

That is certainly one service route.

The other option is Rik Dietel in Seminole, FL-a CW -21 independent.
He is well known and respected. His work carries a 2-yr warranty. Just had my Submariner serviced by Rik-1st rate service and no unnecessary parts changed or replaced. RM-

2 year warranty? That must be new because he always offered a 1 year warranty. Anyway, I can vouch for Rik
