I've got a TAG Calibre 5 Automatic that is starting to gain time, gains about 5mins every week.

I've just called "TAG UK" who are LVMH? and they quoted £280 and 25 working day turn around.

Anyone else that I should be calling for a service?

This will be it's 2nd service, it was done when it was just outside of it's 2yr warranty.

To be honest OP, that sounds quite reasonable. I'd service a lot more with that price and turnaround time and would rather have the manufacturer service papers.

TAG do NOT have the best reputation for quality of servicing though...

Spoke to Steve,

2weeks (ish) £120+£25 for water testing.

So half price and he does seem to have a very good reputation.
