My desk is turning into a watch graveyard at the moment as I can't seem to find anyone reputable locally who can repair them.

The watches are both wind up and battery powered and a mix of brands, including Bulova, and various ages (1920's, 40's and 70's/80's.

They are not worth much in the way of cash but all have great sentimental value and the response I've had when trying local jewellers has always been along the lines of "oh it's not worth repairing this, just buy a new one".

Can anyone suggest somewhere in the Chepstow/Bristol area that could help me get these repaired and ultimately keep them serviced?

Thank you all. Hope I don't get the usual reluctance to look at them from these guys.
