I just paid $650 for mine, it worked fine going in, just wanted to keep up with the manufacturer's suggested maintenance. Came back from my AD looking like it was restored, looks brand new, every nick ect is gone. Judging by your problems it could be higher for yours. You should get a mechanical watch serviced every 5 years before the oils gum up inside. I took mine to an AD, I wouldn't trust a regular watch shop with something expensive, they need to source parts ect.
