My brother owed me 500$ so knowing I’m a watch weirdo he sent this old Seiko instead. It’s full of after market parts so not worth very much but I’m absolutely in love with it. It has a few issues operationally so I’ve decided to have it serviced. I was hoping to get some recommendations on where to send it. Thanks.

I would take that watch over the $500 all day long! Such a nice, historically significant piece. In the US you've got many options, I'm certain. However, I'll let some of the folks who have past experiences with those watch makers provide their advice. Enjoy in good health.

Yep, I was thrilled to get instead of cash, I am definitely enjoying it in good health
Thank you.

Looks great...pretty clean and strong colours, which is what the Pogue is all about for me. I'm still looking forward to owning a nice example some day.

So I needed a repair on my 1987 Seiko H558 and Jack at International Watch Works completed the repair in like under a week. Very professional.
