Unless someone can recommend someone local to the Charlotte, NC area or someone with a better deal than 395.00 and recommended.

After looking at the serial # again, it looks like I was off by a few years on it's age. 345XXXX dates it to 1971.

I called a local shop in Charlotte and they wanted $675.00 for a basic overhaul. That sounded high to me. I was nice and thanked them for the info. Sounds like they do good work, and the lady was very knowledgeable of what they do.

Looks like I'll call QualityTyme. Man I hate to send this watch off...I just got if from my Dad....
