·I have never had to use a watch maker before, as this is my first vintage watch. I don’t have someone I trust, although based on the responses I planned on trying someone in West Palm Beach who was recommended on the forum.
I just worry that I will get a great condition vintage piece, and by making the wrong choice of watchmaker/not having any experience in knowing what to ask for besides “service”, that I will end ruining a good thing.
If someone on here has suggested a watchmaker who is familiar with vintage watches and has access to parts then you are good to go. Ask for it to be serviced and ask that the case not be polished. Over polishing the case is the most common issue with most watchmakers.
