Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Check with local jewelers as they may know a few of the old guys still able to work on them. The closest one to me is in Madill, OK. Surely theres one left in OKC or such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowCatcher Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Pards, looking into having an old elgin pocket watch fixed anybody here fix them? CYC Jeff Sexton did the CLA (Clean Lube & Adjust) on my pocket watch recently - and did beautiful work! My Burlington Special Railroad Watch. He included a CD with shots of the work being done as part of the deal. Excellent work, very good prices, very good turn around time - a true artist!

Griff Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I've used the gentleman in Gray's Jewelry in Texarkana, TX. You can look 'em up on the web. There used to be a couple members in our club who fixed mine a couple of times. I only have their aliases at my fingertips... Judge Colt and Lady Colt... lived in Irving. But, they haven't been around for years. If you like, I might find their exact contact info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
