Another great job from Mike! Had him swap a movement and install a few gen parts on my ARF GMT and it is amazing

As always Mikes work is great, fast and reasonably priced.

Thanks again!

What a blessing to this forum! Mike did an incredible job on my watches.

I sent him my Breitling with A7750 and a ladies Rolex 179174 with ETA 2671 movement to service the movements for longevity. Watches work perfectly.

Then I just got this 16610 back from him and what a fantastic job he did. I sent him all the parts I had accumulated and he put the puzzle together. Here are the parts:

CaseStartime
Case tubeStartime
BezelStartime
Bezel and click springseBay
Spring BarsRolex
CrystalRolex
Bezel insertRolex
DialRolex
CrownRolex
Date wheelRolex
MovementYR3135
JF braceletIntime











I cant thank him enough and if you are looking for a trustworthy watchsmith in CONUS, call Mike!

Got my watch back today and was thoroughly happy with the results. Thank you Mike! Very professionally done. Was my biggest project yet. here is a list of the mods that Mike did for me:


Full service VR 3186
Water proof to 10 bar
​​​​Gen Hands
Gen jump spring wheel
Gen reverse wheels
Gen crown
Gen ratchet wheel
Gen date disc
X 2 Gen parts for date disc mechanism

With a bit of patience, the watch came back exactly as discussed. I will be sending my watches in the future to Mike at Watch Services NY.

Just got 3 more watches back from Mike and as usual, extremely pleased with his work.

If you need a watchsmith, Mike is the man!

This was my first time working with Mike. All I can say is that he is an extremely talented watchmater. Had him do a full movement service and install a variety of gen parts (hands, movement parts, etc) on the NARFTONA that I modded. I'm a novice watch modder myself, but a perfectionist none the less. I wanted a someone who had a great reputation to work on my baby.

Long story short: Mike blew it out of the park. He did a PHENOMINAL job on my watch... The hands were pressed perfectly and cleanly... the movement feels like butter and the watch looks amazing. I couldn't be happier. This guy is a 4130 master! Can't thank him enough. Very professional throughout the process and always answered my PM's quickly. I will be using him in the future for sure. Can't recommend him enough!

I had the pleasure of working with misiekped over the 2020 holiday season. I had a heartbreaking issue pop up with a very expensive watch I purchased on the M2M section of RWI. Mike promptly got back to me with his terms and directions for getting the watch to him.

Something I appreciated was his candor paired with his expertise. I was at no point left unclear about the nature of work required. I am sure that I was one of the more oddball clients he agreed to take as upon opening some watches it appeared the previous servicing work done was unconventional to say the least. Mike still maintained his professionalism and relayed to me the reality of the work that could be expected and did not waste mine nor his time.

So! Fast forward and my watches are back. I want to highlight the care taken to package them in as safe a manner as can be to ensure they arrived back operational. The watches were secured and enmeshed in a layer of foam, even the most careless postal worker would have had a hard ruining them.

I found Mike's price fair and entirely reasonable. I hope in the future my watches behave themselves but should a problem arise it is reassuring to know that magic Mike can fix them up.

Sent my watches back in for the finishing touches for a 100% super franken. I could not be any happier with the service and work misiekped offers. I am so glad I trusted my watches with him because the work is outstanding. Thanks so much Michal!!

I've sent in my new VSF to watchserviceny with some gen parts to be installed and the watch came back absolutely stunning! The communication with Mike was great and he explained everything to me thoroughly. I can honestly say he is the best in this business because I've tried many others previously and none of them can match the skills with Mike. When I received my watch back, it was very well packaged and labeled. Mike is organized, professional, and honest! Thanks again!!

Working with watchservicesny continues to be a first rate experience. Most recently they were able to not only sort out the problem I originally had with a piece but diagnosed other issues present that were not visible to the eye. There was no pressure on executing a fix for the additional problems but they were sure to bring it to my attention and make themselves available to correct it.

I have now worked with watchservicesny several times in a short span of time, each experience has been exemplary. I hope to continue the relationship well into the future!

I recently received my watch back from Mike and I am extremely impressed. His communication is excellent, he replied to all my questions and concerns quickly. He recommended what I need to add and was able to source parts for me. I wish I knew about him earlier, I could have saved so much headache by just going through him.

Now I know and my next project will go through him. It had been a pleasure to work with him.

Recently had two franken project done by Mike and both were very satisfactory.

He can even source many different genuine parts for you too which was super convenient for me.

He's a man of few words but trust me, he will get the work D.O.N.E!

Below are few pictures of his work....
