I know that KB @ RWG has a guy in Dandenong. Best PM> KB for a contact.
I have a VERY good guy here on the GC, if you want to mail your watches.
Offshore.

I have used Watchco before for gens. http://www.watchco.com.au/A_index.htm They were great and could even source some rare Omega parts for me. However, I once asked one of the guys there about a rep, and he refused to touch it...
Dandenong is not far from my place, about 30-45min depends on traffic. I'll look up at RWG for KB. Thanks for the info.
Anyone else??

I need a watch repairer - I accept that no one local will do! (the one local guy refuses to touch them because he was burned, once he says)
Sydney would be preferrable - but I guess mailing to Brisbane/Melbourne is not too bad

Hey ckvintage,
I know one on Russell Street in the CBD. He was recommended by a friend and I've personally used him to clean and regulate my POrikka which was running fast - not seconds but hours a day!!! Works great. Paid $20.
He's very happy to work on reps. In fact, he showed me a 45mm PO rep of one of his clients. PM me if you want his details. Warm regards.
