Can anyone recommend somewhere in the UK that can service my Zenith? (El Primero Chrono)

Im actually going to put it up for sale shortly, so somewhere that can re-finish it would be great too...it was my daily wear for a couple of years and has a few scratches on the bracelet, and obviously I would like it as new looking as possible for re-sale smile

Which one is it? I might be interested.

And for service try Steve Burrage at Ryte Time Watch Repairs.

thanks for that, I will check them out smile

Its a Port Royal bracelet model, all polished steel. They dont make it anymore, so sorry for the ebay link but thats the only one I could find :

used to retail at over £3K, but as you can see, a new one now is £2400, mine will probably end up on ebay too, as Ive no idea what they go for used. Its in the old style much larger wooden display box, than the one in that pic, with everything it would come with as new. Its just its about 4 years old, working perfectly, but never been serviced and in need of a polish.

Thanks - not the model I'm looking for, I'm afraid.

One was up for sale on TZ-UK recently - you may want to do a search on the Sales Forum there to see how much it was going for. Think it was around £1500.
