5513 Service - UK Recomendations

I am contemplating moving my '69 feet first 5513 on but before I really seriously consider I am wanting to have it checked over and serviced and perhaps a refurb of the riveted bracelet.

Given the condition and completeness I do not want to send it back to Rolex and would prefer a sympathetic UK independent.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Wes

Two good options spring to mind here:
Duncan @ Genesis watchmaking and/or Bill Rice @William Rice watchmaking, both are Rolex approved and I’ve had great service from both of them. 👍🏼

I have had only great service at RSC St James including an untouched 1675. For bracelet I used Michael Young in HK who made my 7836 like new.
