OT - Say Billie, are you familiar with a local Glasgow muay thai and kickboxing world champion Amy Pirnie? She's a demon at 50 kg. That's her on the right...
My Great White GMT's hour hand has recently started slipping and I am reckoning after many years service without any indication of an actual service it is time to have it done.
Can anyone recommend a good watchmaker/repairer in the Glasgow area? The online quote from Omega is £450 and having just paid £630 for my recent Sub service I'm baulking at over a grand for the two!
If the finished Omega service result is a good as Rolex, I'll probably go with them as the Sub did come back like new. But I'm open to suggestions.

Cumbernauld judging by your location :-)
I'd have a word with Martins on Maryhill road...something of an institution and although I've never used him for any servicing of autos his reputation is good

Jon repairs also known as John Vincent watch repairs in Hamilton.Never had any dealings with them but not heard anything bad about their service.

Thanks for all the replies. I think, having given it a bit of consideration I'll go with an Omega service. It's going to be a bit pricier but given the difference is not "that" much I would rather go manufacturer than aftermarket. I'll take it into Laings Glasgow and get a definate quote. Cheers.
If you are going to send to Omega, why don't you give STS a call and see if they are any cheaper. They have a stellar reputation for Omega. Having used them twice I can highly recommend.
I posted this when I received my Great White back from Omega service:

That seems very expensive to me, the 2254 movement is the 1120 but basically it’s an ETA 2892 which an independent could service quite reasonably, yes you had to pay an extra £100 for the crown kit but still £600 is an awful lot of money for the service and bracelet polish.
