Any more info on the model and movement? Assuming it is mechanical and the watch is collectible or the movement is an old one, I'd be tempted to use Steve Burrage at Rytetime.

That's what I was trying to get at. A £50 (from Creation) Seiko 5 that required repair or service would probably set you back the cost of a new watch. If it is an older, out of production model or has sentimental value, service would be the way to go.
