Watches of switzerland - quick advice

[GSP]

My watch requires a service and the manufacturer recommends a few place one of which is watches of switzerland.

Does anyone in the industry know if I'm safe leaving a watch with then for the next few weeks?

Looking on company check they have a red light against them, but arum holdings is obviously very healthy.

I don't want to leave a £6k watch with them if they are in trouble. Edinburgh branch shut down recently so it leave me slightly anxious.

Any quick advice much appreciated.

Thanks

WOS send them on for repair & service, your watch if left in Edinburgh will probably end up in london for repair.

Even if they did go bump,your watch is owned by you not them so, is not one of their assets.

What's the watch? Breitling are serviced in Tonbridge, Rolex in West Malling, Blancpain, Breguet and other Swatch in Eastleight, Hants...

Watches of Switzerland will not be doing it no matter what, they'll just act as agent and take their cut.

The Edinburgh store closed as they opened a new location in Glasgow, two floors with a watch maker on sight. It's a lovely place if you fancied a visit. Your watch may be serviced on sight depending on what you're needing done?

As for worrying about the financial state of the company they are opening Europe largest watch emporium in London next year and building work has started on this already.

I would try and go direct to the manufacturer if I were you.
When I had my Omega serviced recently, it was another £70 on top to go through an AD.
I just took it down to the service centre (which has moved to Southampton), but could also have sent RMSD
