I think if I go to someone not authorized by Cartier, Ill invalidate any warranty.

Fifteen+ years after purchase, I dont have the box and paperwork that it came with, but I think Cartier will know that its genuine.

Don't go to Cartier. You can practically get a new watch for what they charge.

If anyone else messes up, and cant fix it, thats the end of any Cartier warranty.

I was thinking the same, but I think Ill try to price the repair with them first.

I wouldnt want to leave it anywhere, so hopefully they can give me a price estimate on the spot.

Simpsons is authorized but they charge premiums if you didn't buy there. But you can trust them.

Kiky jewelers in fort lee- Right over the George Washington Bridge are authorized watch repair for all high end watches Rolex Cartier Baume and Mercier etc. they are Korean- beyond honest - we just repaired an expensive watch there and they gave me an estimate and when I went to pick it up they told me it came in cheaper than the estimate because the repair wasn’t as involved as they originally thought... can’t recommend them highly enough!

What warranty do you have on a 15 year old watch? My husband took his watch to Cartier. We had to leave it for a quote. They insist on bringing everything up to perfect standards, so even though we only wanted to repair the bracelet, they would have replaced practically everything! They wanted over $3000, we paid about half new. Granted we got it wholesale. But we weren't going to pay that.

On the other hand, it was a great experience. They treat you like the queen of England!

If you had it fixed in NY, who ended up fixing it, and were you happy?

My mother actually found someone and took it to be fixed recently. I can ask her who, but it won't be tonight.

So what good is this warranty if you have to pay through the nose for repairs?

Please post address and phone # for Leitman. I had heard that he retired. Did his children take over the business?
