Looking for someone to fix an old Rolex (Durham, Chapel Hill: chapel, loan) - Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary - North Carolina (NC) -The Triangle Area - City-Data Forum

I am looking for someone in North Carolina, Triad or Triangle, to fix an old Rolex. My dad bought a Speedking during the Korean War and it's just recently stopped working. Would love to take it somewhere around here rather than send it off. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've been there too. They seem to know their business.

David Gerald Timepieces in Chapel Hill might be a good check. I've never been there, but they sell and service a fair amount of luxury timepieces.

Jolly's is no longer an authorized Rolex dealer so they may or may not service it. Call Diane at Anthony's Clocks referenced above.

It seems that you have gotten several answers to your question, so the guy in Mebane would be redundant.

wentworth & sloan in chapel hill's university mall has a *fantastic* watch guy who knows rolexes intimately.
