Vintage repair in Canada ?

I would very much like to experience some Rolex/Tudor vintage pieces, but do not care to ship across the border for top notch service.

Does Canada have a vintage guru like Mr. Bob Ridley in the USA ?

(did a search with no luck)

The only man I trust is the watchmaker in Damiani Jewelers, in Woodbridge.
They are an Authorized Rolex Service Center.
Chonger is his name, and very well regarded. He has serviced all my vintage needs, and pieces.
Does what you ask of him. Don't trust your piece to anyone else, IMPO.

Thanks for the recommendations, I've heard of Chonger at Damiani's, did'nt know he did vintage too.

Damiani's it is then, a short drive too, perfect.

Brinhaus sent my Tudor to Saxony in Kelowna BC. They did a beautiful job.Can't find the contact info right now but you could ask Brinkhaus in Calgary.
