I have a 1948 JLC in need of restoration. Cal. P469A. Case number 433441. I want to find: (1) some case clamps and (2) a seconds wheel for the subsidiary seconds. (The seconds wheel works and it's in the right place but it needs to be re-pivoted. I thought a new-old wheel would save this cost). Does anyone know whether the seconds wheel from any other JLC caliber will do instead? The watch needs a service. Who's a good person to do this? I've been quoted about US$270 for the service here in Melbourne (excluding the fabrication of case clamps and re-pivoting the seconds wheel). The beautiful Art Deco hands need restoration. What's a good company to do dial / hand restoration? Thanks - this is a beautiful watch and I'd love to restore it with the care that it deserves. Jonathan [email protected] | ||

Where in Australia are you? The case clamps should be easy the second wheel may be hard. Try: www.ftgwatch.com.au Philp Gore proprietor. I have not used him but consensus is he does good restorations. |
