Rolliworks Review

I just got my 14060 A Series Submariner back from Mike Hui at Rolliworks (@mikerolliworks on Instagram) and I'm beyond impressed! Freshly cut chamfers, gorgeous polishing on the bracelet/case, and shipping from Florida to California and back in a week! Mike is first class all the way and he took his time answering all of my questions (I had a lot) as well as keeping me updated on the process. If your Rolex needs some TLC I highly recommend Rolliworks; thank you, Mike!

Ahh, those chamfers are lovely. I prefer the current super case in most ways, but this is a feature I miss.

Impressive. At first glance I thought the image was showing an unpolished example.

Yes. There’s a very distinctive shape to unpolished watches in that area. Yours looks really well done, so I want to see if they managed to preserve it (which I’ve never seen before).
