Apologies in advance as I'm sure this topic crops up all the time. I need to get my Omega Dynamic serviced. I live nr. Bath & Bristol if anyone can recommend anywhere near these cities or should I use a postal service?

Thanks.

Thanks.
Re: Mallorys, I took my Tudor there many years ago and they sent it off to Rolex for servicing and charged me a large premium for doing so. My fault for not checking and it may well be different now, but "once bitten".

Try the British Horological Institute's website. They have a list of qualified members who will take watches in for service. You should be able to find someone local to you.

Which Dynamic do you have? If it's a first or second generation model (1960s / 70s)they are front loaders. If you go down the BHI route be sure to mention this when you contact the member.

Excellent watches the Dynamics, one of the forgotten Omega's. Good choice!

Understand the reluctance! they serviced my Omega in house and worked out cheaper than sending to Omega

Another one for Watchworks here. Rocco and his wife are fantastic.

It's the "new" one, not the chrono as I preferred the simpler model. When I went to buy one, I discovered that they'd been discontinued about 6 months earlier. I tracked one down in Selfridges and they let me have it for £420!

Nice.
The price you pay for a Dynamic is starting to climb - hold on to it.
