What time is it? Watches and horology

two hundred and forty pounds.
Yeowch.

If it's super rare, I'd have agreed.

But surely there's an opportunity to get it at a slightly less steep price?

But whom I to get in the way of perfection.

Breitling Giro D'Italia at auction. Guide price of £660.

Any suggestions for Omega services, preferably in London but I'm not averse to sending it away. Preferably not too expensive (unsurprisingly) as it's an older, cheaper one.

They don't just specialise in Omega. Not cheap, but very good.

It costs nothing other than postage for them to have a look and then give you an idea on costs.

^ agree . Swiss time services . Best for Omega

Agreed on Swiss Time, they replaced a half baton for me on a 1964 Omega Pie-pan Constellation and did a great job. It actually wasn't that pricey, about £60 IIRC.

Pulled the trigger. Can't believe I just spent a weekend break away for 2 on a f@cking buckle.

Cheers, I'll have a look those. Any ideas on roughly how much a service should cost?
