I just received a Top Gun with a 7750 that I purchased in the M2M section and the hand on the chronograph has fallen off. Who can I send it to for it to be repaired?

Thanks!

I'm in the USA.

Some basic information like your location will help get suggestions for a watchsmith. Also a picture or two is always welcome.

Small white hand should be on the 12 subdail.

I don't see anything out of place? Is that the watch in question?

The white hand near the 9 should be on the chronograph subdial with the other small white hand.

Oh, so is it loose, but still in place? I thought you meant it completely fell off and was floating around in the dial

No, it's completely off and sliding around on the dial.

LoL. I thought it was a 7750 three sub dial watch from the hands location. I kept coming back and asking myself why is the red hand not at the 9 o'clock position. There's a number of good watchsmiths who can reattach it. Strodda, 2fake4u, misiekiped, tickleshoes, katt (maybe...he usually doesn't work on Chronograph movement) and a number of others.

Unfortunately it is at first until you make some contacts. There's alot and their focus and skill set varies.
