I have a Seiko 5 which I like very much but the day/date is broken. Local 'jewelers' can replace a battery or strap but baulk at real work, they want £70 to send it off for repair - it only cost thirty-odd quid. Is there anyone online or a postal service that can do what I think is a relatively minor fix for sensible money?
