If you have a vintage Breitling, use these people. I inherited an early 60's Breitling and Breitling couldn't fix it (they didn't have the parts).

Holorogical Services did a beautiful job, replacing the cracked glass and it runs perfectly. I brought it to the Breitling store in NYC to show them, they were impressed. They then gave me a tour of the upstairs museum, where I saw another example of my watch (they had to admit that mine was nicer... )
