Watch smith in london (north)

[rikf]

I just got a Omega Planet Ocean 45.5mm Eta 2824-2 Ultimate Version but am having a really tough time readjusting the bracelet.

Can anyone recommend a watch-smith in London preferably north west who is happy to work on reps?

Cheers,

Richard

I can't really point you in the direction of any particular watch smiths, but I would suggest trying independent watchsmiths/jewelers

You won't need a specialist to do that. Most independent jewellery shops will do that for no more than

what part is north cos there is a little booth in one of the shopping centres in harrow whos done it before on my watches. I don't think its a biggy as long as you dont go into an AD it should be fine, not sure if that place Timpson cant adjust bracelets? might be a better option if you got one close by

I have taken my reps to Goldhawk Watch & Clock Repairs opposite the Goldhawk tube station. Quick and good.

Excellent...likely just needed a hammer and bracelet pin driver...glad it worked out.

it would benefit you financially to get a pin tool.. they are very inexpensive and even the tough UPO in will ease out like cutting butter.. with what you spend at the watch smith a couple of times you would have paid for your tool..

"Watch Bitz" in the dealers section has all the tool you need for our hobby, at very good prices..

That's how I done mine Lani, it just takes a little patience. It isn't brain surgery, but when you do it yourself you feel like a brain surgeon lol.

If you can't be bothered Timpson's will do it for two bob while you wait.

Any local independent watchsmith will do that for you,that's how i resized mine as well,for 0.50 cents of a Euro.No questions asked.Besides adjusting a bracelet can hardly be considered as working on a rep!!!

no strange and mysterious looks

No worries my friend
