··In Art We TrustMy brother asked for a recommendation for servicing a friend's 1861 caliber speedmaster (it's about 12 years since purchased new.)
Since he's in Seattle, he could chose between Nesbit's and an Omega official service center. After describing the merits of both, he chose Nesbit's.
Here is his experience:
"There were two people there working
A VERY nice lady who married the grandson of the founder and an older guy working on watches (probably her husband)
She opened it up and then asked how long we had the watch
Then he went further and checked inside and said that it didn’t need lubrication
The crown gasket though was very hard and they replaced it and it works great now
[His friend] asked how much and she no charge."
Gotta love that.
