Recommended Service Center

I have a 3513.33 from 1997 that I picked up about 1 yr ago on Crono24. Beautiful watch in perfect condition. The date started changing around the 6 AM time instead of at midnight. I took it into my local jeweler who sent it off to a private in Nashville and it came back stating that they wanted to do a full service. Around $850. That seems to be about the same price as sending it directly to Omega. Any other suggestions domestically in the US to send it?

To me this watch is definitely vintage, or neo-vintage at the very least (it was made almost three decades ago!). Lots of rock music from 1997 are now entering classic rock territory as well.

My worries would be that Omega would polish this (even if told not to). Personally, I'd use an independent with access to Omega parts and just have the movement serviced.

I would just send it to Omega. You could go with Nesbit's in Seattle too but it might cost more.

Send it to Omega directly. I did that, and got back a practically brand new watch:



Wait time was around 8 months. My service price was a little over $1k, but included an optional dial replacement.

If you do, just send it straight to the NJ service center since it'll most likely go to Switzerland anyway.
