Seiko Marinemaster help

[457689]

he guys,

in addition to a Rolex 14060M, I've got a Seiko Marinemaster SBDX001. I've had it for about 3 years and scuba with it all over the world.

recently, the bezel is getting very, very difficult to turn. If I place it under running water, that sort of loosens it up for a little while. but soon it tightens back up.

i live in southern california and don't want to send the watch back to japan (it's a japan only model) for service.

so... anybody know a shop in the southern california (los angeles area) that can pop off the bezel and lubricate it. It's kinda a high end watch so I don't just want to take it anywhere.

thanks

Hi,
This is a very popular watch over on the TZUK watch talk forum, they may have some advice for you. Having said that I am sure a watch maker would be able to take a look.
Regards,
Chris
