Good Affordable Service??

My 600 T-Graph is acting a bit funky. Are there any good AFFORDABLE Doxa service centers in the States? I'm not ready for a $500 service job on this 8 yr old watch!

I bet IWW would be half that price. Jack does great work.

Jack. He's busy, but worth it.

I am pretty sure that any quality chrono service is going to cost at least that much.

If you pay a little more he Will expedite. ..

Jay did some OUTSTANDING case work on my Nimo, however 5 months was a bit long. I may just bite the bullet and know I'll be without my Orange for the entire summer.

How much is the T-graph worth? Would that factor at all in your decision on servicing it?

[River Rat]

450 and up depending on who service it. Most charge 500 for a chronograph movement there is more work and time when servicing a chronograph movement you must of seen a photo on the net of one taken apart it's like a puzzle to put back together. And not all watchmakers are good when servicing a chronograph movement so don't be cheap or it will come back worse than when you sent it out for service some time's it's worth paying a higher price due to the watchmaker skill level.

Aloha .. Do not go with Jay for service - he subcontracts it and his watchmaker sucks. He does great mod work, case cleanup, etc, but movement work...

I heard Jack sucks as well, but I got that from Steven - not from personal experience.

Good luck!

Wow. He's always done great by me.

And me... Jack has done service and restores for several of my watches and it's always been excellent work.
