Can anyone recommend a watch repairer please? It's for what I hope will be a simple but unusual job.
The long version is that I have a Lanvin watch with a '70s electric movement, a PUW 2001. The movement is dead. The 2001 was notoriously short lived. It usually died of rust. It's not possible to repair or replace it, so I want to swap it for a different model of movement from the same PUW family. I'm told by someone with a huge collection of electric watches that it should be a simple job. But I'll have to cannibalise another watch to do it - there aren't any spare movements available.
