Steinhart Service in USA?

Hey guys, I tried searching for the answer but couldn’t find anything but if this has already been asked and answered feel free to point me to that post. Has anyone had their automatic Steinhart serviced here in the states (preferably on the west coast, I live in eastern Washington)? Or know of anyone reputable who can service my watch?

Ocean one 42mm VINTAGE, my latest acquisition

I have been looking for a ” vintage” look diver for some time , I came across many candidates like Seiko presage vintage 60 style, Oris sixty-five, Rado Captain Cook and so on . On account of price or size (I definitely wanted to have something in the 40 to 42 range) I didn’t buy any of those (I was also briefly considering some Chinese hommages too like the Pagani version of this).

In the end I have acquired a NEW (tried to find a secondhand but they were very expensive or sellers were…
