There are good people out there locally. The Seattle area has a watch school at one of the community colleges that helps train factory watchmakers.

I had a vintage JLC damaged by someone working at my house. It needed to go to Switzerland, 9 months later I basically had a new watch for $1,900. It was so nice I couldn't bring myself to wear it and sold it to someone. Some stuff even the authorized dealers with in house watchmakers won't touch.

There is a guy on Ebay (I've never used him) that restores and sells older Omegas, I think he does repairs as well. Lookup up Omega_Addict on Ebay.

The guys at Timezone should be able to direct you to a local watchmaker.
