Toronto Rep Servicing / Repair + Modifications

[Grizzly01]

Hello Everyone!

If you are in the Greater Toronto Area and need servicing to your REP watch, I have found a place in Toronto that will service, repair and even Mod Rep watches, such as new crystals with 2x AR.. Very knowledgeable about most rep makers like Noob, JF and so on.. I wanted to share this info because until now I have been told "NO" to servicing reps from MANY service shops.

W.J. Watch Repair
416-368-4044
501-21 Dundas Sq, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5B 1B7

Open: Monday - Friday 10am to 6pm

-------

If you know any other places in the GTA that service REP watches, please share!

Will they do repairs/servicing on the A7750? I've been looking for someone in Montreal for ages... In TO for work now and again, so this could be a great possibility.

Thank you! I live pretty close so this is super convenient.
Do you know how much they charge for a normal service on a new rep watch, ETA 2824/2836?

Just dropped off my fully modded JF V7 for the following:

- Broken Keyless Fix (not engaging Powermatic 80)
- Dial Swap and Hand Install
- Replace Missing Dial Holder Screws and Washers.

Was quoted $150-$200 and the final price came out to $195 (Taxes Off for Cash only Price).

I will be picking the watch up tomorrow and give you guys an update. The guys there didn't hesitate on working on my watch and made me feel confident in bringing in A REP without being judged.

How did the service work out for you??? Did they do a good job?

 

[Grizzly01]

Thanks a million!

No problem at all!!!! I have a good collection of watches and a few needed servicing.. After SO MANY rejections from other places, I came across this one. They had no issue working on my 2824 movement and corrected the sticky DW...

I hope this photo is enough to justify it.
I paid $180 cash and was very happy with the end result. It's no Rolex quality, there are bits of dust/fingerprints here and there but the job is very well done regardless. I returned it due to a very visible dirt and the owner didn't hesitate to clean it up for me. I have OCD-so everything has to be perfect, but this passes my standards.

$180 got me:
Broken Keyless Replacement
Dial Installation
Hands Installation

It's not bad, given that I gave the watch in pieces due to my fuck-up.

Mind you, my OCD won't really get satisfied unless the quality is the same as AP AD. Which is why this passes it. Let's see if you guys can spot them.

Guys, you do realize that this is illegal and this address should remain private and be shared by PM only, right ?

Why? It's a business that repairs watches and accepts replicas.
