I have an old Tag Heuer that I had bought for my 18th which is in dire need of repair.

The glass is cracked and needs replacing, the battery needs replacing and the plastic bezel could do with being replaced as it is quite worn.

It is similar to this watch



I have been quoted between £200 - £250 to repair it at my local Goldsmiths.

Is this about right?? Seems steep to be as this is probably more than the watch is worth!

Anyone reccomend anywhere else? I am a bit reluctant to send it away though in case it gets lost!

I've used these guys in the past for my battery replacement on my Tag. http://www.swiss-serv.co.uk/

Goldsmiths will most likely take their cut and then send it directly back to Tag anyway and I've not heard good things about them. An independent is at least dependent on positive feedback.

Google TCA watch repairs,

Just done a battery replacement and polish on my 7 year old F1

Looks awesome! He is very gentle with the polishing too as Tag can end up rounding all the corners off as they're quite harsh.

He really knows his stuff

I can wholeheartedly recommend Rocco at Watchworks, he sent my well battered Monaco back to me looking like brand new! 0117 975 9752

Seems steep, but not unexpected from Goldsmiths.

The biggest single cost would be the bezel but £100 or so should see it done.

Sorry to dig up an old topic but I've just had my Tag serviced by Terry at Swiss-Serv and I'm very impressed.

I'd thoroughly recommend them. Very well priced, kept me informed of everything going on and the turnaround time was about 1 week.
