I have a Santos XL White dial that has a date wheel index problem. The date in the window is about half the date off. Today the 11th, I can see one of the 1's in the middle of the date window and the other one is barely visible on the left side. Myiota 9015 movement. I 'm looking for a watch repair person in the USA who can fix this problem. Looking through all the recommended watch repair people on the forum, it looks like the majority only work on ETA or Rolex movements. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Not sure, I do know it has the Myiota 9015 movement. I sent it to a watchmaker in Dallas. He hadn’t gotten in to it as if last Tuesday. He did have two suggestions, first, repair the calendar mechanism, he said the parts were readily available. Second, more expensive would be to replace the entire movement. His recommendation will be based on what he finds, but he told me the repair would be much cheaper than replacing the movement. We shall see?
