Ta for the link about many of their own kind. Had it to Alsal yesterday and the vintage Omega place in Burlington Arcade today, who are happy to service but not repair. Alsal gave me two options - they could go at it with abandon there and then, which may bugger the bracelet forever, or go gently-gently and flood the screw holes (whatever they're called) with grease to try and coax out the knackered screws.
Worst that can happen with that method is nothing, but they'd need to take the watch off me for a couple of days and I'm not keen on that having just begun wearing it. However I'll probably take them up on their offer as my mind cannot shake the imperfection of the current clasp adjustment, so it's worth a bash. They confirmed it's the original bracelet too. If I go back there though there's a couple of Junghans in the window with my name on, so I'm staying away for the next while.
It's a 1022. Been looking into the dial - nearest I've found is another watch from the same year, but different model. There's another very similar dial in a 70s Dynamic on eBay I've got half an eye on, but I've yet to find an exact match for either dial or model.
