A very basic movement, surprised he turned it down? Is there a problem getting seals,parts etc..for panerai.Sent from my E6653 using TZ-UK mobile app
As the title, really. I've previously used Duncan at Genesis for some work, but he doesn't fancy this. It's an older Luminor Marina, Unitas movement.
Any thoughts? Thanks!

Maybe there is. This is what Duncan said -
Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately we don’t work on this brand as we have no account for spares from the manufacturer. We only service Omega, Tag Heuer, Rolex, Tudor, Zenith and Precista watches. I’m sorry we can’t help this time and hope that we can be of better service in the future.
It should be a straight forward Unitas movement. Odd. Maybe Brendan?
I’m pretty sure Duncan Hewitt (www.thewatchbloke.co.uk) would service this as it’s a not an in-house movement. He’s definitely serviced other Panerais before as detailed in his blog, and he’s well regarded in this parts
When I was considering the purchase of your leftie a few years back I asked Rocco and he said he would do it (laser-welding was also on the cards). Of course, finding the space in his schedule will be the challenge...
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
Thanks for the replies - I've got it booked in with Brendan, and it should be a quick turn-around!
Can I asked what the charge is as I have a 183 that is due some tlc.
Thanks.

I'll let you know - it's back in the Uk, about to be posted to him over the weekend!
Appreciate it :).
