try http://www.rgmwatches.com/index.html or 
http://www.watchblvd.com/vintage_merchants1.php or 
http://watchpark.com/Vintage_Watches/ or 
http://www.watchuseek.com/site/vintage.htm. the 1st is the best shop in the 
USA. the latter three are portals full of reputable dealers all over the 
planet who sell vintage accutrons, so you can ask them where to get repairs.

when i had my mothers watch repaired two years 
ago,
[it was a present from my father to her] they put a complete new mechanism 
into it.
That was here in the UK and was at a recommended agent, not by Bulova 
themselves
as they do not have a repair presence here in the UK.

Since it obviously has sentimental value then why not get it repaired,
even if it means a new mechanism.
