Hi all "oldbirds"
My 4 years old Speedmaster has broke down.Wanted to adjust the date but can't turn the click(have clicking sound but date just won't move,can feel that it is stuck).Tried to adjust the time to 12am to make the date jump but still the same.Then finally watch also stop,damn sway!
Brought my watch to Ion as heard from the service centre at Wheelock that they are under the same management and if i do not want to wait long to check in my watch which I waited for few hours 3 years ago.Ion will be the best place.
Explained the fault to the sales staff and i was advised that it could be the movement is spoilt as it is a chrono and this problem is common and also advised me to go for a full servicing.When i asked for the price for servicing as since i bought this watch 4 years ago,i did not do any servicing at all.
When she quoted me the price,i nearly faint.Was quoted $730 onwards due to metal strap(puzzled by this remarks)If strap is not metal,it will be $670 onwards
I was thinking to myself i bought my watch close to $3k at that time and a single servicing cost that much!!! And the servcing will take 2 months to complete somemore,really crazy price leh!
Though they could not access the cost of repair and problem at this moment of time,i was also thinking of alternatives that if the repair cost is high,i will not do the repair with them and therefore wanted to seek help if anyone knows good & trustworthy shops that offer repairs and servicing at reasonable price so that I can check them out???
Hope to have some help here
