I have an older Hamilton watch that my grandparents gave me years ago. I'd like to wear it for a wedding. Needs a battery and probably a cleaning. Any suggestions on a repair shop that could do the work? TIA

Learned of Watch Repair on Florida from this site. Does good work at a fair price. Would definitely recommend.

I’m serious as shite with this.

Most likely, there is a YouTube video on that exact watch.

That specific watches battery might not be underneath the gears. All the repair guy is gonna be is unscrew the back of that watch and then put a new battery in it.

If it’s not underneath the gears, you could easily do it for little money

+1 for Kenny. Dude is bad to the bone. His wife passed around Christmas of a heart attack. Feel bad for the guy. Told me he has no motivation anymore. Used to knock out 5-10 watches a day. Now he says he may only do 2. Said that to say, he will do it but it may be a while.

very cheap and fast. Sometimes if it's a minor thing like a missing pin, they'll do it for free.

+1 for watch repair

They've taken links out of every watch I've had and replaced numerous batteries while I've waited

Son’s over Kenny. Much more reasonable and they usually do it while you wait.
