Nex_necO Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Hi all! I have stalked the forums for some days and bought my self an IWC Ingeniuer. (Haven't arrived yet) In that respect, do any of the other Norwegian board members know of a watchmaker in the vicinity of Oslo that wouldn't mind working on replicas? The DW swap, and so on. I seam to have hit gold when I stumbled upon this forum Best regards Nex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dani Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Velkommen. We will soon need a Norway GTG. Their is almost no people that will work on reps in Norway i have search all over Oslo and areas around. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Welcome Viking! I actually have a rep friendly watch smith here in Stavanger.. But I started out letting him work on my vintage gens and built up a sort of relationship with him before I bought in my replicas. My watch smith is a 65 year old guy, and have an amazing store.. Really old-school! I think many watch smiths would be suspicious working on replicas from a stranger. They expect unknown, fragile Chinese movements with a great risk of failure during work. But, actually, few of my replicas have needed work. For service and upgrades, I rather send them to The Zigmeisterzumba. Another attempt at a Norwegian GTG would be nice!

Nex_necO Posted July 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 (edited) Yes it seams to be quite a few "vikings" lurking the boards. Has it ever been a Norwegian GTG? Edited July 11, 2008 by Nex_necO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Yes it seams to be quite a few "vikings" lurking the boards. Has it ever been a Norwegian GTG? A Norwegian GTG was attempted about two years ago (in the days when "Gran" was still around), but I think that it ran out in the sand. Could not get together enough members.
