SOrry, if Ebel doesnt have that means it is discontinued and no longer available anywhere.

This is not a simple task.You need a watchmaker with knowledge of Ebel watches.The case is opened by removing the bezel and splitting the crown stem.The watch module then pulls out of the front of the case.This is not simple I advise you dont try.At www.rolexrepairs.co.uk they operate a postal service so your watch can be returned within 2 or 3 days.

mcdevito75 here, hello garth, keep trying Ebel on line, Check on Ebay, or a small watch repair shop in your area for the links and to save on cost.

15 $$ dollars

I believe you are just outside your warranty. Its time to see a watch maker/technician about repairing the watch. Often times slowing is as easy to fix as lubricating the movement and forcing the gear train through the use of a cyclonic device. This fix takes minutes and is very cost effective. If the slowing is due t circuit board issues or a more sever gear train problem then the movement will need to be overhauled. I suggest comparing this cost to the cost of a replacement movement.

An automatic watch can have many of the same issues as a wind up because that is what it is essentially. This means that you could have a main spring issue or standard maintenance issue. The watch should be overhauled and oiled about every 4-5 years.

I've paid $250 - $450 for my Rolex about every ten years.  The Ebel is another fine watch, and should cost about the same.  They come back looking like new. 

You have to open your watch and find movement number. Use an eyeglass as the numbers are very tiny. Number is pressed onto one of movement plates and shoud be letters ETA+number.
When this is done, visit your nearest watchmaker shop and ask for stem for movement ETA+number. Do not tell this is for Ebel or you will be charged accordingly to brand name.
There should be no problems for supplying ETA stem.

Unfortunately watch service is often calculated based on the value of the watch, as insurance, and quality/cost of materials and spares and tools are factors. With the correct lubricant there should be no reason why a quality watch should need that particular job done so regularly, but a 4/5-yearly service is not a bad idea at all, as most problems with this sort of watch can be avoided with regular maintenance. Hope this helps :)
