Hi OF crew! New to the group and very happy to be here!
I’ve just pulled the trigger on a 145.022-68 Transitional. No service history, so I would like to get the movement serviced and have some very light polishing done (or possibly replace the plexiglass if needed).
I live in Zurich, and having read a lot of posts about not going direct to Omega for fear of losing everything I love about the watch, does anyone have any recommendations for where I could get the work done?
Thanks in advance!
