I have a 50's vintage Seamaster of my father's
which has special value to me. Problem is, it doesn't keep time despite frequent overhauls etc
by Omega certified folks.
I asked Omega if it would consider replacing the old movement with a new coaxial. They wouldn't hear of it; didn't want to destroy the integrity of the old watch. OK--I understand their point. And I know that warranting the work will be an issue.
But, despite old world sensibilities, its
ultimately my watch and I want it to work, and Omega has failed for close on to 30 years to get it to keep good time. Maybe its just worn out.
So. Where do I go for good information? Can this be done? Who is the Omega guru who will be able to give me solid advice on this project? Can anyone give me good direction or suggestions?
