To ensure the lasting beauty and performance of your timepiece, we recommend treating it with reasonable care and attention. This Care and Maintenance guide will provide you with essential guidelines to help you preserve the integrity of your vintage Rolex watch.

Care and Cleaning: To maintain the appearance of your vintage Rolex watch, we recommend cleaning it regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Servicing: Vintage Rolex watches require periodic servicing to ensure optimal performance. We recommend having your watch serviced by a qualified professional at regular intervals, typically every 3-5 years. This will help address any potential issues and ensure the longevity of your timepiece.
