Your flag says Canada. I know of one in Ontario, but I have never used him. He took over my old refinisher's business when he retired.

I think I used Kirk Rich in Seattle which did a nice job

I'm not sure, but $400 pounds is a joke. My old refinisher did the dial, plated the hands (if good enough) and replated the indexes for less than $60.00 Canadian, but that was 10 years ago.

Current guy charges $60.00 for a dial now

Full dial service is $125, but just the outside is $400. Seems odd pricing. OK work based on images, but nothing to write home about.

I hope that isn't the same place in Seattle where my local guy sent my old Omega dial. It's been gone over a year and no end in sight.

 

Not in the UK, but very good. Don't know about prices.

I know I am raising this thread from a bottomless pit but I am also looking for a dial restorer.

Additionally I would love to know if it might be worth it for a citizen 8110
There's a lot of people offering new non original dials and don't know if having the dial completely redone might be worth it over a new dial

 

Kirk dial in Seattle is miserable.
International used to be variable in quality and now has new owners with whom I have no experience.
Eagle Dial in Philadelphia did good work on a pocket watch dial I sent them.
Kirk Rich in Victorville, CA does excellent work. It takes time and they are not cheap.

What is your opinion on aftermarket dials?

For some brands there are alot of aftermarket options available for instance.
This is also the case for 8110
