FYI this is only a review concerning the watch repair services available…read more I brought in a vintage Omega Seamaster De Ville that I was told could be serviced without issue. It was running quite fast at the time. Upon receiving the watch back, it is keeping time much more accurately, however the crystal had been scratched significantly. I was assured by the store that the watch maker is a professional and that this could never have occurred in his care. He said it was likely because the watch was cleaned that I could see the scratches on the crystal more clearly -- the only thing that was clear is that this was a load of malarkey. I have an excellent memory and I would have noticed if there was even one new scratch. There were so many scratches (superficial/deep, small and large) that it did not even require a second's thought to realize it had been damaged. It looked like it had been mailed by a bear. The gentleman offered to try and buff it out, this did not help. To give you some background the Omega Seamaster De Ville has a monocoque case. This should only be opened by professionals, who will not damage the crystal or case (typically with a crystal lift). Unfortunately, the crystal on the watch looks like it has been through the zombie apocalypse. To spend $200 on a service to have the movement function, but the crystal damaged is not ideal. I would recommend finding a watchmaker on AWCI who is more qualified for any of your vintage watch needs. Also, on a complete side note, the bracelet was placed in the wrong orientation so that the clasp opened on the wrong end. I fixed it myself, but that is literally something that should not happen in the hands of a competent watch maker.

While I was waiting I chopped it up with his wife Mrs. Kathy and we had a decent conversation she was real cool. I couldn't be happier !!!
