UK servicing, preferably London based

Have had 30 years of Omega servicing, and while it used to be good, for the last decade/+, it's never come back as good as it left me, accuracy wise or aesthetically, and I'm beyond fed up with it, so would love to know people's own experiences of watchmakers, maybe ex-Omega techs who ran away and work for themselves. Be nice to visit rather than post, hence the London ask, but we all talk about Southampton and some of you have been really lucky, and I'm honestly glad for you, but I am now resigned to the fact that older models maybe aren't given the love that maybe the newer models are, because there's no excuse for forgetting the specific reason it's sent in for. Or I'm just really unlucky? Get an apology, which is fair enough, and I appreciate that, and the please send it back etc, but no I'm done. It's already been sent back. I'm far from a difficult customer, I just want what it was sent in for repaired. Simple as that. £590 isn't cheap when simple tasks are not done.

Every Omega bar one that was a lemon, that I've bought, has been brilliant straight off the shelf, but after servicing, they're not ever close to how they were out of the box.

This may be a SWATCH have taken too much on thing, and 18 is too many brands in the mix. Dunno? Do they service all 18 brands in the same workshop?
Do any of you send to Bienne in Switzerland, is that even a thing after frustration with their UK centre or is that a headache too?

Thanks, I'll have a look.

Seriously, out of the 200 odd people viewing this post, they all use Southampton?
Bar one

Fair play, thank you gentleman. Also curious if my problems with officialdom are echoed by others who have noticed that basic servicing is not what it used to be up there anymore.

I'm only talking about watches made in the 2000s and up, that have had to be sent back, not because I'm fussy, but because they forgot to do what it was there for, or repaired something that broke again within a few months, or scratched something. Not vintage watches. Why did you have to send to Switzerland, that they can't do here?

Thank you

Tough crowd, anyone else able to explain the whys and whens of being able to send to Bienne, and under what circumstances, vintage or?
Curious how and why people have sent to them instead of the UK centre?
Anyone...

Some fair comment, and appreciate the recommends, but I was only talking about the Switzerland comment that I had answered, and curious to hear his response, over a week ago. Not really sure what the big secret is, but I'm sure 'padders' has his reasons??? Getting shot down for having awful service is ridiculous. They've admitted their mistakes, it's not like I'm making it up!
