Thank you in advance for any recommendations for service! I've been using a watch repair service in NYC for a bit now, but would love to find alternative options locally in Denver or any other recommendations in the US. I have a Omega Suveran and Universal that both need a new crystal and servicing. Any help would be appreciated!

I recommend doing a site search. There are very many.

Yes, I've done a fair share of searches, but most local shops have bad reviews. I'm hoping there is someone out there that has had a great experience and willing to share. Thx

I agree with @efauser. If someone were willing to post contact info for their watchmaker on a searchable forum (or with a stranger), they have probably already done so. You will only get repeats of what you will find by searching. Try google, and limit your search to the omegaforums.net domain.

Thank you, both. Very helpful

Just to be clear, you can use google to search Omegaforums (see below), and IMO it is usually better than using the internal search engine. Although the site administrators have indicated that they are upgrading the search feature.

why do you say that the method you suggested is better than using the internal search engine?

Because it is.

It tends to throw up the most relevant results rather than most recent and allows one to search for words/terms of 3 letters or less which is useful for some part numbers.

The internal search has some limitations and it is my personal experience that Google generally works better. I know that the site admins are working on upgrading it.

Again, thank you for the advise. I found a local shop by using this advise. Appreciate it!
