243ack Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 I've recently inherited a silver 'G. Tasker, Whitechapel' pocket watch and chain (key wind) which wont wind. I've emailed a couple of 'googled' people specialising in old watch repairs and had no replies. Does anyone know of a reliable chap who would look at this for me? Probably not worth spending a lot on - even though its over 200yrs old - but thats not the point for me. Thanks chaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitzy Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Myself and many forum members on TZUk can recommend Brendon http://webwatchmaker.com/ He restored my Omega pocket watch. He sent me pics all the way through the process which was fascinating. Price was very reasonable. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
