There is no label from the repair shop in Germany. It has been repacked in Oslo. However the description says the repair was performed by a company called Tritec. Some guy at Pentaxforums is pretty sure it's this place: http://www.tritec-service.de/ Which is located in Vechelde, just west of Braunschweig.
