Jaeger-LeCoultre

All, If this isn't appropriate to post here then apologies and I will remove it but I thought this might be of interest as it unfolds... Haven't posted for a while, been very content with my small and varied collection. But my pride and joy (Amvox 5) stop...

All, Got this back via the AD: ‘To ensure the efficiency of your watch, the following intervention is necessary- Complete service’ No other information as to what is wrong etc. I've also been in contact with JLC Customer Services via the website and had v... 

I agree anything can go wrong and often does - crucial will be the response of JLC to the problem and whether they can offer a compromise. So far, it hasn't been promising.
