Anyone know a really good watch restorer in Cape Town? I've got my Dad's old Buren - probably not worth a lot, but he bought it during WW2 and wore it every day till his death in 1998. It's been in Mom's drawer since, and won't wind now.

 

(Happily, she didn't give it to the church fete like she did with his original Wayfarers, airforce gloves and silk scarf, and her highly valuable - $2500 with original clothes - Shirley Temple doll).

Swiss Army watch, bought 15 years ago. Still a daily runner.

 

Anybody care to recommend a good watchmaker in Joburg northern suburbs? I've also got a Raymond Weil that needs a good servicing, and the local agents look a bit scarey to me.

 

(BTW - that Scratch at the 12 o'clock position was from a high speed (30km/h!) endo after hitting a speed bump on a tar road. Watch glass doesn't have a scratch on it, amazingly tough.)
