Chris used to be great but sadly not so nowadays.
The last time I used him was about 10 years ago, I sent him a vintage IWC for a full dial restoration(sorry purists, the dial WAS awful!) The watch came back and the restoration was appalling, I sent it back to him with 'words of advice', I eventually got it back and I was happy with it even though it took a long time and was expensive (not grumbling about the cost) After that episode, with the trust bubble broken, I never used him again.
After that, I was fortunate to discover a brilliant watch repair guy who does a first-class job at reasonable prices and I unhesitatingly recommend him! The guy is Rocco Manfredi of 'Watchworks' in Bristol. The last job he did for me was a full service and refurb on a vintage 1942 Omega that had lain in a drawer in a relatives house for about 30 years, the watch came back gorgeous and relative was delighted with it!
