Bill Rice did a great job with my 5513 around 10 years ago - didnt touch the case etc as requested purely the movement and seals etc. I was quoted less than Rolex quite recently for another service...
You dont say who made it, if by chance its a Di-Modell drop them a line with a photo of the problem, I did this a couple of years ago with a few months old strap when a keeper failed, by return post...
take a video of you packing the watch, clearly showing you sealing it up and the address, make sure to also show the watch condition. I do this regularly now with Ebay sales. If you cant video, take...
More grist for the mill, some months ago I asked for advice about a recently purchased B1 from a Chrino24 seller which had a regular issue of digi display losing sync with the analogue. I eventually...
They quote their prices for a service clearly on their website - nice and transparent so no nasty surprises

My Nomos Club started to play up out of warranty (It had been fettled by one of our professional watchmakers on here previously but the fault returned) - an issue with the balance seemed most likely...
My personal experience is that Longines has excellent customer service - do as suggested and after a week if its still not up to scratch contact Longines directly. In may case I asked them if I could...

I have a 62510H bracelet from 2004 with 555b endlinks, it has 19 links in total (~15.5cm with the clasp closed, 23cm open). In excellent condition, no discernible stretch and cosmetically almost...
Secursus is apparently a good option, not low cost but then not many insurers are.

Something similar happened to me once but the missus put mine in with her diamond rings...messed up the Sapphire very comprehensively. Given the cost to replace and the impact on future premiums I...
Hi Jan that SBGV005 was sold some time back, 2017? Glad to see its still with you - luckily my GS is very much a dress watch and wont be going near to any water, the case back gasket was in good...
I'm fortunate in owning a genuine Bergeon Jaxa (the price on the box shows £3 19 /- so pre-1971!) Regardless however I still worry about slipping when removing case backs and although its never...

I wouldnt bother - also you could be waiting for a while if you send it through Rolex, you could use an Independent if you are convinced of the need e.g. http://williamricewatches.com/ who I have...
A long shot but Seiko Maidenhead who may be able to help - they have with me on more recent watches where screws have gone missing but older stuff may draw a blank. Ref Ebay, give it a try but...
all...mine is the exception then so not all
For the money the Tudor GMT is difficult to find fault with - I initially didnt like it, looked clunky and fat especially when compared with the Rolex GMT that they were often compared with due to...
Or just keep your eyes open for a used one like I did..worth the patience

But...I didnt need one! Need..interesting word in the context of TZ...its not long since I bought a black dial off SC from Wileeeeeey...so comparison then decision...its been a few years since I had...

A short comment about Michael Young vs Seth for those who are ignoring other aspects of this thread and who have an interest in getting a bracelet repaired. I sent each an Osyter bracelet a couple of...
