    Helson Shark Diver ETA - Service recommendations please

    Hi All

    One of my Shark Divers looks as though it could do with a service. It's a September 2012 model with the 2824-2 upgrade that was available for the steel version then. I bought it in January 2020 and it has thus far run very sweetly, keeping time to within less than a second per day. However, I haven't worn it for over a month and today, when I've hand wound it, I feel the rotor engage which, I now know thanks to this forum, is a sign it could do with a lubrication service.

    Can anyone recommend a UK-based watchmaker either from the forum or not who I should entrust this to, please? I'm aware it's hardly haute horologie but I searched for ages to find an example as nice as this.

    Thanks for looking.

    Incidentally, I should mention it's a 45mm version which supposedly has a 2000m WR. Therefore I guess it should include a pressure test of some kind.
