Hello reader,
If you found this thread, you most likely are in need of a watchsmith / watchmaker, and if that's the case, look no further.
I had read a few posts by Nikz here on the forum before reaching out to him about a month ago. It happened to be that my VSF 116610 had met an ill fate, and the crown and stem were detached with no possibility whatsoever to re-attach.
I asked my self, will I succeed with this and actually be happy with the result? I think not. I am really on the level where I'm experimenting with movements that I do not really give a hoot about. And when I reached this conclusion, I knew I'd check with Nikz who replied almost instantaneously in an ever so proffessional manner.
We decided that he'd change mainspring and barrel as well to genuine issue for a very competitive price, and off went the watch. We did not come to any agreement regarding timings, as I was in no real hurry at the time. Nevertheless the watch was serviced, broken parts replaced and returned quicker than I expected, especially with regards to the non existent time frame.
I just recently got the watch back in good condition, and it's running like a charm. I really liked the continuous updates received, and very content and reassured by the proffessional fashion everything was handled.
All in all I give Nikz top grade and will surely be back again.
