I am sure it will, I have used him in the past for Seiko Divers & always pleased with price & results, did the wife;s Sicura recently , replaced crystal,serviced,& serviced my 5 sports for less than that, best of luck.

Alex C Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Just paid £350 to have my Tag Aqua Racer serviced. All the pins and links have been changed, which is great, except its now too tight !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find Breitling will not send parts to outhers. All I needed was a small spring in the winder but my local watch guy could not get one from them. Be prepared for an eye watering service charge from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Hi I can second Michael Swift - he got my 40yr old Fortis Army watch ticking over very nicely - for around £60 incl. P&P. My neighbour had his same aged Fortis Marinemaster Chrono done for similar money - great service. L Quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if thats his email, but his number 01700505112. I may be wrong and am making a big assumption but i get the impression, he is "old School" and he would prefer a phone call, rather than email. EDIT: If you have a "Dive" watch and want it pressure tested after the work, he cannot presure test it. But his work is so cheap, you can have him do the work and get it pressure tested elsewhere. ( i was quoted over £200 from citizen, £30 with Michael!!) Edited January 20, 2018 by silver pigeon69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Hi Loriusgarrulus - that indeed is the link to Michael Swifts establishment. L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
