Je suis à Aix-en-Provence et j'y retourne pour la première fois en 32 ans lorsque j'ai étudié ici pendant un semestre. Dès que je suis arrivé ici, mon rep préféré s'est arrêté. Quelqu'un près d'Aix qui peut le réparer? Je suis sûr que cela nécessite juste une petite correction de mouvement. De plus, si un membre du comité souhaite se réunir, faites le moi savoir. Je suis ici pour une autre semaine. En passant, j'utilise Google Translate pour taper cela, mon français n'est pas très bon.:p

[mode explication on ]
Messieurs ... exceptionnellement je vais m'autoriser à utiliser l'anglais dans ce sous-forum, uniquement pour répondre à Copterguy qui est basé à Hawai et qui donc ne doit pas être très à l'aise avec notre belle langue
[mode explication off]

Hi Copterguy ... welcome to the French sub-forum and welcome in "douce France".

Unfortunately there are very few members offering watchsmith services in France, and repfriendly watchmakers are scarce too.
So I think it would be better to wait until you're back in Hawaii.

Nevertheless, depending on which brand/model/movement you have a problem with, I'd be glad to help you or at least try to (I'm not a watchsmith but quite handy as I've been building watches for a few years ... some in my signature).
So just give us some more informations on your watch and describe the problem you have with it (apart from the fact that it has stopped working).
I'm based in Lyon but I'll be in south of France from 08/05 to 12/05 and I'm always happy to meet up with foreign forum members.
So if you have some free time on 08/05 AM (be going down south that day) or 12/05 PM (be going back to Lyon) it will be a pleasure if we can have a meeting.

Aloha!
Well the watch is the Hubelot rep from v6 factory, specifically, this one.
https://www.ts-stations.cn/mobile/goods.php?ProId=22965
I purchased it Jan. 2018, so not too old.
I normally keep it on a winder. At one point, it stopped,I would give it a little shake and it kept going. Eventually it just stopped. I can shake it from time to time and it will start up again, but then just stops. I'm thinking it just needs movement oil or service of a sort.
I actually leave very early morning on the 9th. So the 8th would be great if you are nearby. I'll DM My cell phone number here.
I just baught another of this model, this time, from intime watch. So, if I can't get it to work I'll just offer it up to someone who can.
Merci

OK ... as it's a French sub-forum and I always ask people to use French only here I'll go on by PM if you don't mind
