Would Leica Q Official Gurantee from manufacturer in USA be used in U.K.?

I live in UK but am considering buying a Leica Q from America online. This Leica was originally bought in May 2016 but has a dent in the dial so it does not turn. The Leica Q has an official guarantee from the manufacturer which lasts for 2 years. If I buy that camera, could I use that official gurantee, even though the camera was bought in America, and have that dial fixed in the UK? And if so, where could it be fixed? Thanks

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Assuming your Q came with the Leica passport you should be able to have it fixed via a UK dealer, who will probably send it to Germany.  Sometimes Leica will not fix some problems under warrantee, such as if the damage was due to the camera being dropped.  But let's see what other forum member say.
