Hi everyone !

I've ordered a ZF Portuguese Real PR Real Annual Calendar IW503502 in January, the watch is perfect, worksp erfectly , very close from gen !

But 2 months later, the "1" from the 10 O'clock mark felt apart, I mailed the TD that told me I could send it back for free repairs but i'm living in France and customs became very aggressive recently, same for China from what I've read so I don't know what to do...

I don't wanna take the risk of the watch getting seized, but I don't have any knowledge in watch repair and I don't wanna try it myself and f*ck up everything...

Do you guys know any watchsmith in France or in Europe who could take care of it ?

Thanking you in advance !
