Watches like this aren't too popular with watchmakers, as they are a nuisance to fix and not really worth anything - fragile, not water resistant, intolerant of abuse on the wrists of today's active women...



The "big" problem is small size, and scarcity of parts. If it needs no parts, any watchmaker could fix it.

Might be worth taking it to a local watchmaker to learn more about the movement inside... might be an ebauche from LeCoultre, Girard-Perregaux, or maybe another brand like Rayville (Blancpain)
