greg_r 81 Posted August 11, 2010 There are several folks in the EU - which is the best for you is going to depend on the movement. Brightlight will shortly have his own subforum here - he's based in the UK and offers servicing, repairs and mods. Alternatively you could try Domi (Germany) or Francisco (Italy). Both are members here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brightlight will shortly have his own subforum here - he's based in the UK and offers servicing, repairs and mods. Alternatively you could try Domi (Germany) or Francisco (Italy). Both are members here. Those two are one of my first and they are cheap Asian automatic movement watches ( i don't know which movement, bought them direct from China ). ! So I don't know if anybody can repair those? That was before i found you guys and learned more about movements and stuff. One of them stopped working today, when i shake it it goes for few seconds than stops ( it is some Ferrari model I like a lot, can't post picture because my son drooped my camera and have to buy new. when i get new camera i will post pictures ) The other one works but I dropped it and one of the dials felt off. It is Chopard and i don't know if i can post the link tho the picture on the site i bought it from? So is it wort repairing those watches or buy new ones? And can any of those guys you named do it? P.S. Hope you understand my disastrous English Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

P.S. Hope you understand my disastrous English 21J based watches are rarely worth repairing, but sometimes it's possible to replace the movement. Have a talk to one of the repairers mentioned - maybe they can suggest whether or not it's worth spending money on those watches... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trailboss99 994 Posted August 12, 2010 Yup, store them at photobucket.com and link to them here. It just keeps our band width down to a dull roar. If they are 21j MVTs it will be cheapest to replace the whole MVT which should be no more than US$15 or so. We will have them in the shop shortly BTW folks. Col.

I did all that but when i go to MY Home page that is the page where i should be able to upload my pictures I CAN'T SEE THE PAGE, it is blank without anything on it!!! So it must be some program that i'm missing like Flash player or something! The same is with main page, I can't see any of the pictures that are there! Only those mobile phones and that smiling ladi on top of the page , nothing else Hope now you understand what i mean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
