USA based Watch Repair for replica and gen watches.

Services: I fix stuck movements, clean, lube and overhaul movements if needed. I do movement swaps. I also work on hands, dials, markers-change them out, bracelets and some vintage watches. I do custom assemblies of franken builds as well.. I do custom repairs of broken or missing dial feet (no double stick tape). I do case tube replacements. I do reluming of hands and dials of Pam sandwich dials only. I do regulation of rate--is your watch running too fast or too slow? I fix key less works issues- is your stem pulled out- a common problem? Do your wind, date and set functions work? Also, ETA 2824-36 automatic wind / reverser wheel problems. I can reseal all threads and rubber gaskets with silicone but since I have no pressure testing equipment, I can not provide guarantees of water resistance. I do NOT accept 7750s chronos. Due to lack of parts, I can only accept Yuki and SH type 3135s on a limited basis if at all, like doing date wheels, minor repairs and dial swaps. Prices and rates vary depending on what I find, how much time is involved and if parts may be needed. After I fix a movement and have invested my time only partial refunds will be granted on a case by case basis.

For USA based watch repair of gen ETAs, Selitas or clone ETAs 2836-2 & 2824-2 & 2671s & 2892s. Limited basis 3135s. Asian 21js 2813s etc. hand wound ETA/Unitas 6497s w/swan necks for Pams.

If any of you have broken or non working watches or movements like SH SA or Yuki 3135s, ETAs or Selita 2824, ETA 2836-2s clones, 6497s, Chinese Dg 2813s & 4813s or others, please let me know. The more spare parts I can accumulate in my scrap heap the better I can fix your watches, thanks.

For all inquiries or questions about repair, please send them to : [email protected] no PMs please. Also please mention any relevant history of the watch.
