yes, i have htought about that myself. it is not that i don't know which tools to use, i was looking for someone with more experience to suggest what might be the least costly tools/brand/place to purchase, said tools.
after having exchanged emails with omega customer service, i was advised by them to send the watch to an authorized repair facility. i am leary of doing this for only a regulation as i have heard on the net about some horror stories regarding certain authorized repair facilities. also, i didn't want to be without my primary watch for 2-3 months if i could avoid it.
your response seems to indicate that pretty much any watchmaker/jeweler could regulate the mechanism without voiding the warranty. but this is not what omega customer service indicated in their email to me. belive me, i would rather have a local watchmaker do the job than do it myself or send it away and risk damage in shipping or at the repair facility.
now i'm not sure what is the best course of action.....
: If you don't know what tools to use, that tells
: me you don't know enough to be fiddling
: around inside your watch.
: Why risk screwing up a $1000 watch when a local
: jeweler can probably do the adjustment
: right, at his risk, and warranteed?
: Probably cost less than what you'd pay for the
: tools to risk it yourself. And if you let
: dust in, leave fingerprints on the movement
: or do other mishandling, you can not only
: screw up your watch's mechanism, but also
: void any warranty you might have left.
