I would only take it to an authorized Omega dealer . . .

I see that OC Tanner in SLC is a dealer. If it has automatic movement, which I'm guessing it does, you don't want just any watch repair shop working on it. You have an incredibly valuable timepiece on your hands.

Every dealer will just send it to Omega... IMHO, send it to Omega yourself

also.. just a warning.. Omega Service is not 'vintage' friendly.

You are correct. OC Tanner employs a watchmaker, so does Masseys in SLC

If you take an Omega watch into OC tanner.. they will send it to Omega.

I just inherited my Father’s 1952 Longines. Any idea who could do a restoration?
