    Any independant IWC watch repairers out there?

    My Mark XV needs servicing as it has started to loose time.

    I tried Richard Askham but he doesn't work on IWCs due to the availability of parts - other than biting the bullet and sending it off to IWC, are there any other repairers who will service older IWCs?

    Cheers.

    Brendan (Webwatchmaker) did a brilliant job with my XV last year. Highly recommended. Don’t bother trying Genesis as Duncan can’t access parts for IWC models.

    Cheers - I've dropped Brendan an email to see if he can help.

    I'm very happy with his recent service for my IWC Caliber 89

    Thank you for your remarks.

    I have some very old IWC movements, but no cases sadly. These date from around 1916.
    Pocket movements:

    Wristwatch movements:
