Jkay Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Katt's Watch repair is in the midwest, and is trusted over on the RWI forum. I have used him several times and find him to be friendly, prompt and talented. shoot him an email at GKLONER at GMAIL dot COM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlc.nla Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Check out CLS & Speedy Gonzales on RG. I've never used Speedy, but I can personally recommend CLS. He is based out of Cali, has great prices, & is relatively fast.

TeeJay Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Omega seamaster with orange bezel, black strap with orange stitch: 6 0'clock marker sticker fell out of place. Omega planet ocean GMT... Bezel ring fell off, super glued back on, but some glue must mave touch crystal underneath.. Bezel does not turn now The stick marker will be easily put back in place, just a matter of decasing the movement and dial and pressing it back into place. With the bezel issue, that is even easier. Take the watch in your right hand, press your thumb tightly on the crystal, and your other fingers tightly on the case and bracelet (not touching the bezel) kneel down on carpetted floor, press the bezel against the carpet, and then 'push' the watch away from you, rolling it on the carpet. I've had the exact same issue in the last before with several watches, and this has always resolved the issue The traction from the carpet should provide the grip to break the superglue bonding the bezel to the crystal and allow it to rotate freely again Be sure to hold the crystal firmly so that does not also spin with the bezel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
