    Hello UG Forum -

    I inherited this Universal Geneve Space Compax (Version 1 - REF. 885104-01). It's not currently in working condition - appears to need a replacement crown and possibly stem, as well as rubber pushers (I was able to buy a set on Ebay, but they need to be installed). Bracelet also appears to need replacement pins to hold it together.

    Can anyone recommend a repair shop that can get this watch up and running again? I'm in the Washington, DC area - but I don't mind shipping it to a great shop elsewhere.

    This was my dad's watch - I remember going with him to buy it in the early '70s - and it has great sentimental value to me. I'd love to be able to wear it regularly.

    Many thanks!

    I used to use a 24 hour watchworks in Arlington, VA back when I was in law school. He only did small jobs for me but he was pretty good.
