·Hello all. I am new to this forum so I’m sorry in advance for making any mistakes.
I inherited this Omega speedmaster from my father a few years ago. I always loved the watch even though by the time i was aware of its existence it had already fallen into a state of disrepair and needed work. My father always intended on having it restored and passing it on to me as some sort of family heirloom but unfortunately he died before he got the chance. I have had now for the seven years since his death and have put off having work done to it because of being afraid of the cost and not quite knowing how to proceed. I understand that it is fairly rare watch and combined with the sentimental value i wish to have someone trustworthy do the work on it. I would like to have the minimal work done to it so as to keep it as original as possible. I have read that sending it off to Omega would not be a good idea in this instance as they are a little too keen to replace parts. Im sure you all understand what I’m getting at? Im based in Denmark but am British so don’t mind sending it to the uk or any eu country for that matter. Where would you recommend i have the work done?
Thanks
