I recently acquired my grandfather’s 1950s Tri Compax. The watch is in excellent shape but hasn’t been worn in 30 years and I doubt was ever serviced. Who would you recommend for a full service in the US?

I have a feeling that I’m asking the obvious. This Polerouter with bumper movement and no long dial+hands. What do you think?
Continue readingI’m not a big expert, but am aware that the crosshair should normally cross the “M” in AUTOMATIC in its first vertical line. Not the case here.
Obviously redial and move on, or maybe ligit?
Thanks for your help!

New member here. I’ve had a gold TriCompax for years, and finally hoping to have it restored fully for use.
