Some repair help please/steer me in the right direction...

I have a quick question. Is there anyone here that could do the work or recommend someone locally here in Spain that would be willing to repair my Tudor Sub 7928 with the broken winding stem? Now, my AD has sent the watch off to Rolex Spain already and I'm waiting for the estimate from them in about a week or so.

If, by chance I'm not happy with what they tell me (very possible) is there anyone else I can turn to? I'm just afraid Rolex Spain is really gonna screw me on the repair, it's just a bad feeling I have. Thanks guys and gals.

I can suggest a fella here in the States, but I hate the idea of trans-Atlantic shipping

Try Andrew here (Highhorology http://www.rolexforums.com/member.php?u=33483 ) - I'm sure he can fix it, but you're shipping across the pond.

Steve, hang-on and be patient..........Surely someone here on the forum can help you with a qualified local watchmaker convenient to you. Having an ETA movement, I would have to believe that almost any watchmaker could work on it..............I hope you get a good answer.

The Tudor sub as mentioned has a cal 390, that's not ETA.

Hello,
I am new to this site so this is my first post!
There is a very good watch maker in Madrid. His name is Pedro Izquierdo.
Can I post his website so you can contact him? I'm not familiar with all the rules yet.
