Hi watch enthusiast,

Looking for recommended and reliable watch repair/service/overhaul for 60's vintage Seiko around Klang valley.
With proper time grapher checking and adjustment.

Also estimated how much to clean / minor service for old watch?

You can try Kedai Jam Clock Family Enterprise at Aeon Seksyen 24 Shah Alam.

Saw antic watch from 80s, fully mechanical being serviced.

Wah Foong is always the recommended go to. Service etc usually is around 150, but also depends on what is required to be done.

To check the movement, light polishing on case and clean up.

Movement everything still working fine just wanna check if there are anything break inside that might cause bigger issue in future.

yup! have sent a few watches to him for service, including one vintage Seiko. He's done a better job than any other place I've experienced so far for me.

Nice.
It's my first vintage Seiko, so not sure what to expect from a 3rd party service
