1965 Ladies Rolex Date - Sympathetic Restoration
Hi All.
I am pretty new to watches, but bought my wife a 1965 Rolex Date for our wedding anniversary. She likes the watch, but it does require some sympathetic restoration. Can anyone recommend where i might be able to get this done. The strap needs to be resized and the whole watch overhauled, cleaned and serviced. It is approaching 50 years old, so we would like to keep some of the patina.
On a connected note - We noted that the dial does not state Swiss made, but TO (my eyes are not as good as they once were!). What does this mean?
Also the crown is not original Rolex - can anyone replace this for me and also the strap is stretched with age.
I am sure that there must be capable individuals on this very forum.....
I am happy to use anyone highly recommended.
Thanks in advance.
