I apologies if this is the wrong topic: Please move if not applicable to the sub forum.

I'm in Tokyo for the next month and I thought it would be as good a time as any to try and get one of my 80s vintage Casio watches repaired. Now, it's a unique watch with both digital and analogue readouts. The digital readout is working however the analogue moment has stopped.

Does anyone know of a watch repair in the greater Tokyo area that specializes with 80s / 90s vintage Casio watches? I would appreciate any help. I know of Watch Doctor and a few other general watch repair places, but I would really like to see if there is a shop that specializes in this kind of thing.

My Japanese Language ability is only so so. I can Google many watch repair places but can't be sure if they specialize in anything other than premium brands such as TAG, Rolex & Breitling

Thanks again for any help and or sorry for the inconvenience of a misplaced post.

You could get a Japanese person to google around for you to try to find a good repair shop that specializes in that specific kind of dual digital/analog movement Casio, or you could look around in Akiba, or you could go out to Nakano to the vintage watch places. But if I had a little time on my hands, I would find the main Casio service center in Tokyo and take your watch there. My guess is that they will do their best to help you. Most of the large Japanese electronics and optical companies are very serious about being able to service any of their products, no matter how old or obscure.

Seiko was able to service my grandfather's watch that he bought in 1952 or so when he was over as part of the occupation with no issues, including an interior cleaning. They did say if I wanted the crystal replaced I would need to have one custom cut for it at a specialist place, but that was the only part they didn't have on hand.
