Today’s technology poses special and unique problems for counterfeit and replica watches. In the last year we have seen more and more astonishingly well-done \“knock-off\” watches. With the aid of computers and sophisticated production and graphic arts techniques, even experts can be fooled.

First, make sure you purchase your fine timepiece, Rolex or any brand, from a retailer AUTHORIZED to sell that brand. That is the one way to insure that your purchase is authentic and fully warranteed by the manufacturer. Internet purchases will absolutely carry the risk of lack of authenticity and newness.

If you have any concern that a watch you own or may be considering for purchase is genuine, bring it in so that our Rolex Certified watchmakers can examine it. They will be able to help determine authenticity.

Yes, we are a Rolex authorized service center. Three of our watchmakers are certified Rolex Master Watchmakers, trained by Rolex. All work is done to Rolex factory standards and done on the premises in our state of the art service facility using only genuine Rolex parts.

Most services are completed in four weeks; some older watches or watches needing special replacement parts may take longer. Price will depend on metal (stainless steel, steel and gold or precious metal, i.e. gold or platinum).Some complicated watches e.g., chronographs are more costly than the standard Rolex automatic. A firm estimate can be provided when the watch is brought to us.

The full service includes a complete movement overhaul and cleaning, regulation of the timekeeping as closely as possible to Rolex factory standards and complete case and bracelet refinishing as close to original finish as can be done.

Because each watch is different, there may be pros and cons when using a watch winder. Because of the care needed in such circumstances, please feel free to consult with some of our watch experts (Call our Indianapolis location at(317) 808-3920or our Greenwood location at(317) 883-4467.)

Shop before you apply.

While other jewelry stores may urge you to go ahead and apply for financing - either online or in the store - before you've even found your ring, we don't engage in that practice, and here's why. Applying for credit can tie up your credit line. If that happens, and you don't find your perfect ring at that jewelry store, but you DO find it elsewhere, you may not be approved when you find the ring of your dreams.
