Getting a mechanical stopwatch calibrated

[benjj]

Hello chaps,

Does anyone know where I can get a mechanical (wind up, not automatic) stopwatch calibrated?

It is a vintage 60's Heuer stopwatch that I use for historic rallying.

I'm based near Harrogate/Leeds so can drop it in somewhere local but will also happily send it off to an expert.

Any advice much appreciated.

It might be worth seeing if there is a BHI approved repairer in your area http://www.bhi.co.uk/repairer.html

They should be able to do it, or recommend someone that can.

Terrific, thankyou, I'll have a look.

Ben: Google Ryte Time and give Steve a call. I have a box full of Heuer & Breitling stopwatches which all need a service and regulating, so Id be interested to hear how much he will charge.

Btw: PFA 150M ?

Thanks, I'll do that and let you know.

As for the DS, no sign yet. Its definitely not on the road so the club is keeping an eye out for it as people tent to stash away entire cars for donor parts. As and when (and if!) it shows up I'll let you know
