I've bought a mixture of nice watches from my local jeweller. Got to know him quite well, he's admitted to me that he uses a local guy in Derby who's as good as most of the manufacturers for about half the price. The only negative point is if you use your watch for diving, seems that the jeweller will only guarantee the water proof ness of the watch if it's been back to rolex or similar.

I'd be happy to use a local specialist.
