Thought Eddie's business was a custom jewellery as opposed to a watch repairs?

[CardShark]

He has a watch chap on site as well, IIRC.

Someone called?

Haven't received anything unless you were under a different login?

Should this be a wiki at the top of the forum?

Sorry to jump onto someone else's thread but can you service an 18 year old Breitling?

Bezel and glass have properly seen better days having been knocked on scaffolding and masonry since it was new!

[Variomatic]

servicing Breitlings isn't a problem, case repair / cosmetics can be because of parts supply.

They can usually be cosmetically improved quite a bit but getting that full showroom shine really means sending it back to them. Got any photos?

Thanks for the info, not looking for perfection, just a tidy up it won't last perfect for long anyway!

Not best pics but this gives an idea:

sweet Jesus ...."just a tidy up " !!!! looks like it needs major surgery to me

[Variomatic]

Well it ain't gonna come up like new without the factory's help but should tidy up reasonably well - at least the bezel engraving isn't worn down flush like some I've seen

[PGM]

Good stuff, I believe things are to be used not stored, polished and looked at, just like cars!

Vario, could you give me some kind of cost indication by PM and instructions about how to go about getting it to you etc?

Thanks for your help.

Do you do TAGs.
Had a recent repair estimate at more than the watches value !!!!
Thanks
