Default Swiss Mechanical watch repair?

I have an Omega automatic that has limited power reserve, maybe a broken mainspring. Any suggestions for a good watch repair place? Not a jewler at the mall. I have heard of Swiss Chalet in Boulder but have never tried them.

Thanks,
-Joel.

if you can get a hold of rshibata (used to own 5280 wheel co) he'll know of a good place.

Default I've never had work done, but you might call the following:

Oster's in Cherry Creek (very high end, Jeremy Oster should have recommendations on where to send your watch)

Right Time (or About Time)...they are at Colorado and I-25 and I think they do repair work

Matheus Watch Repair in Highlands Ranch...

Default I would second Matheus in HR.

I just did not suggest it since you are so far from there.

I always feel strage walking throught the King Soopers to get in there. They have done good work on a couple of watches I have taken to them.

HR is probably too far, thanks though. Any experiences in Denver?
