I don't think the Countycomm guys do watch repair, doesn't that have a Seiko or Casio movement? any competent watch maker should be able to fix it.

Any City in America with at least 100K inhabitants should have an experienced watch or clock Smith. Check with a Trusted Jewelry store. The 80 year old I used in Memphis retired but he was a Rolex Trained Smith. He regulated both my Seiko's and an Invicta. When I moved to the Prairie I needed one for my new watch. Googled watch repair and found a good one in Indiana. He regulated my new watch to -3seconds a day. I'm happy. $20 bucks well spent.

The problem with take it to any watch guy
Is exactly like take it to any mechanic. Because not any mechanic can fix it and/or not screw you over. That is why I am asking here for a recommend shop/individual. |

Shit the movement is probably cheap enough to just buy a new one and have it installed.
Where do you live? |

Mine stopped working and keeping time, CountyComm sent me a new one, and a new strap to boot - that was 2 years ago - runs great
