Commenting Watch Repairers

thread title has been changed to prevent bias

Agree... since i dun get freebies from them anyway. Thks bro Triton.

one fellow forum member mention to me that the duration of servicing is an important factor. if it takes a watch repairer more than 1 month to service a watch, the member will give this watch repairer a miss.

it is important to note all listed watch repairers are recommended by one member or another. however, cavet emptor. if one member has good experience does not mean your experience will be good. as mentioned in my other threads. go and have a look and observe and chat with them.

do think of the possibility that when watch technicians have a big number of watches to services, they can also source it out. that is why when you hand over your watch, you must trust them and feel at ease. i always send to my regular technician because of speed of service and my trust in the watch repairer.

Isn't it ....
Max Time = Quality = delicated jobs .....or...... Max time = a case of too much, too many jobs ?

I read some posts here and heard certain shops can even service, polish a watch within 3 days. Does that mean efficient or just phantom job anyhow? I will not send my watches to these shops either.

Been 'playing ' with watches for the past 20 years.......from my real life experience not hear hear rumours, JW watch is really good. For those who doubt me. Pls visit his shop and chat with Mr John. Watch send to him, he will ensure 100% job well done.
How many watch repairers in Singapore really fix your watch well, replace with original parts, provide warranties and then even called you to check the status of watch after you paid and collected?

I'm sure many bros who gave feedback to JW website sure knows who's are the real mcCoy shops and repairers locally

I am quite curious to know if all the names you mentioned above are truly certified watch repairers. Sounds a little too commercial to me this thread.

My apologies for the confusions.........

Certified watch repairers and lots of experience are JW, chuan (ex rolex staff) n new world watch. All 3 are in the watch repair industries for at least 20 years each at least.
The other 3 i quoted refers to their selling, exceptionally good after sales services and shop warranty given to buyers. Rest assured all buyers can guarantee the authenticity of watches from them.

I'm sure there are others whom i missed out so bros here can recommend them too

I'm not affiliated to any of the shops i mentioned and no commision from them la. Just pure personal experiences.

Thx PCB for highlighting

yesh! Mr Wang is top on my list...workshop has achieved certain standards,unlike some which i would not name them. Drink milo,kopi munch curry puffs at the workshop..yeah your precious timepiece just centimeters away from his flying flakes of curry puff while he munch and chat at the same time with his friend. You go imagine...

I have recommended many members to JW,including my friends. None complain, but feedback to me service was good. Timely delivery...like what bro watchpassionist mentioned prices are reasonable too. So besides the service centres this is the other option i would recommend.

Bro, i never tried JW but will take your recommendation and bro feilong advice that he can service pam and have Mr Wang to take a look at my pam190 in a couple of days time. Another shop i have heard positive feedbacks is Top Hour in Lucky Plaza. Also never try their service before though.

A fren who owns many drooling jaw dropping brands but is blur blur to watches maintenance asked where to service his watches other than the original watch makers? He read the forums here and decided to try J- w------.

Recently met up with him and he was very impressed by this Mr John who started J-. Couple of his watches were serviced and repaired. The workmanship was great, the polishing was fantastic, the price was extremely reasonable and best of all he will cover another year of warranty.

Mr John Wang have been in this industries for at least 20 years and heard he even conduct classes to coach watch repairs. He is not like many other shops who act only as middleman, send your precious watches to kuching kurap shops for repairs and then pocket the charges differences!
I'm glad that in our tiny island we have these ppl who are real lovers and passionate abt watches other than just sell and make profits.

I personally came across few watches sellers who after selling you the watches and when you found it has defects, the shop denied totally.

I would like to point out a few shops who are reliable and trustworthy from my own personal experience. For other watch repairers who are good pls recommend and post here too thru your experience

J- @ great eastern centre
P------ @ Funan centre
Chuan watch @ golden landmark... Mr Henry
N-- w---- w---- @ People's park
A---t--- @ Delfi orchard.

Bravos and Kudos to you
