How it works

How mail-in repair works

Clients across the country send their watches to Joe this way. You talk to him before anything ships.

  1. Tell us about your watch

    Call, or send the form with a photo. Joe calls you back and gives you a rough idea of cost.

  2. Get a free, fully insured FedEx label

    We email it to you at no cost. Pack the watch the way we show you, drop it at any FedEx location and keep the receipt.

  3. Approve the estimate

    Joe inspects it on his bench and tells you the price. Nothing is done until you say yes. If you don't go ahead, it ships back insured at no charge.

  4. Get it back with a 1-year warranty

    Serviced, tested and returned by insured FedEx in a zipped travel case.

Please don't send the original Rolex box or papers; we can't return them.

How much does a Rolex service cost?

It depends on the model and what it needs. Joe talks it through with you on the phone, then gives you a free estimate after inspecting the watch. You only pay if you approve.

How long does it take?

Most services take about 4 weeks from the day your watch arrives, plus about 2 days of FedEx shipping each way.

Is it safe to ship my Rolex?

Yes. It travels by FedEx, insured both ways, with tracking. We let you know when it arrives and before it ships back.

Can I drop it off in person?

No. We work by mail only. It's how we serve clients across the country, and it keeps things simple and secure.

Do you use genuine parts?

Yes. Every part Joe uses is 100% genuine Rolex.

What does the warranty cover?

Every service comes with a 1-year warranty on the work performed.

Are you Rolex?

No. Luxury Watch Service is an independent watch service, not affiliated with Rolex.
