We have done many repairs that others have given up on. No job is too big or too small and we can do any repair on any watch. Our repairs can be as simple as a tune up and can be as complicated as a dial refinish, a case polish, movement clean and overhaul and even a complete restoration.

We have a simple process for mailing your watch to us, our estimates are free and have free return shipping, even if you decline the estimate.

The most common problems we see in mechanical watches are broken crystals and a non-working movement. This type of movement requires a full-service clean and overhaul which consists of taking the entire movement apart, clean each tiny piece in a ultrasonic cleaner, re oil, re assemble and put back together, there may be damaged parts that will be determined during your free estimate.  Other common repairs to all mechanical watches are broken stem and crown, or numbers, markers or hands that have come loose. Whether your Rockford repair is common or vintage rare, we will be able to fix your watch for you.
