I took my beloved Speedmaster into the Clearwater, Florida repair center today and was greeted by friendly people who seems happy to help me. I also took my Tissot Seastar 1000 in which has been broken also. I'll have to pay out of pocket for the Tissot since it's out of warranty, but the Speedy is in warranty.

Talking with them, I mentioned this forum and the Secaucas New Jersey repair center and the horror stories that went with it. She smiled and the watchmaker laughed as they both nodded their heads. Interesting.

She said it would take approximately four weeks on average and that it was really up to getting the needed parts.

So far so good. Nice people, a clean shop, knowledgeable and get this, the woman at the front desk's father worked at NASA in the VAB building as a technical writer during the Gemini and Apollo project era! Too cool!

MacDaddy was this the piece that you thought you winded and then stopped during the middle of the night? I'm not sure, I can't remember which post was yours.

Hi MaDaddy,

You can't ask for much better DNA than that for the person looking after your Speedy.:biggrin:

I hope all goes well with both watch repairs/services.
