    I recently purchased a standard Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial. Overall I much prefer this version over the Spectre, however I do like the Spectre's lollipop seconds hand and I'm looking for someone to help me swap my existing arrowhead hand for the lollipop. I can source the lollipop hand myself, or I can have a watchmaker source and provide one through their own supply channels. My SM300 is grey market without an authenticated warranty card, so I'm not concerned with how the swap would affect the factory warranty.

    I've spoken with Govberg and they are unable to do it as it falls outside what they are permitted to do as an authorized service center. Can anyone recommend a watchmaker in the Philadelphia area that could do the work properly, without affecting anything else on the watch, and ensure that the water-resistance is maintained?
