Beware the local guys, I know there are good ones out there, just get a good recommendation.
I had an atlantic mariner which is a smaller brand chronograph, valjoux 7750 movement. I bought it used in 2001 and it kept better time than my newer sub for several years. It started slowing down so I took it to a local certified watchmaker for service. $250 and it's never been right. I've taken it back several times only to be told over and over, keeps good time on our bench. It has no reserve and will periodically just lose minutes per day when fully wound.
Watch isn't worth more than $500 in good running shape, so I'm stuck with it in my drawer.
