My Roman watch is sick :( please help

Dear friends, please help me in knowing whether this hmt Roman is a genuine piece or franken. Also the problem it has.

Some two years back one gentleman had put it for sale on olx and i took it as i was desperately looking for this model
Since then it was working fine. Everything including sub-dials & moon-phase indicator
But from the past two months it is slowing down. I can see seconds hand ticking properly but actual time going out of sync
What could be the reason? Advice whether should i go to a watch repairer? Any hmt watch repair expert in your opinion?

Dear All, as you might be knowing that once i posted that my hmt roman moon phase watch is sick and i couldn't get it serviced here in my home town as most of the watch repairers declined to service it considering its vintage factor and non availability of required parts. Eventually i lost hope that it would work again but one of our WUS member Mr. Vikrama has helped me in getting this watch serviced in his home town and made this watch once again up and running. My friend Vikrama, i am really thankful to you for your kind help in this regard. You are a true hmt lover :)

Vikrama helped bring back to life two HMT ANADIGIS. one was Nos and the other was in regular use by my dad till it died. Both the watches are ticking fine now and dad is back to using his old favourite. thanks to Vikrama who spent much of his time, efforts and money in getting this done. Regards, Hari

Hari Ji, Ironically yesterday i was thinking just about it..why hmt didn't design n manufacture sports/ diving watches? I once again applied my imagination on UGSS 07 watch which i posted two days back. When i was at the end of finishing my editing i saw this post of yours with hmt sportstar watch :) Here is my fantasy hmt sports watches..

Thats a rugged watch,
Being in Pune I know how difficult it is getting spares and repairs done or watches for that matter if not in Bangalore. Great Job Vikrama :-! , helping out jalal-akbar and Hari.

What is your experience with CT Pundole and sons at Camp? Do they touch HMTs anymore? In my pre HMT days We used to live in Pune and they had brought my grandfathers seiko back to life.
