I had been looking for a watch repair shop for months now and was having so much difficulty that I had resorted to keeping the watch in my purse and vowed to find something when out and about.
Driving east bound on Indian School Rd. The Watch Repair Company caught my eye in a tiny little strip mall-My prayers had been answered! I pulled quick u-turn and wrangled my car into a spot in their tiny little parking lot.
Walking into the shop, its not much to look at-but what caught my eye is that is was CLEAN! Pristine to say the least-a nice change from most watch places that typically are cluttered with pieces as I think most watch/clock repair business's lean towards being hoarders :)
It turns out the shop is under new ownership as of a few months ago (so give it another try Coda B.!) and the owner himself Eddie was upfront working on a piece.
I only needed a battery replaced, but he did so within 5 minutes and only charged me $5.00.
What impressed me more than his timeliness, was the fact that he actually knows his timepieces. I was wearing a watch that he offered to clean for me and upon inspection noted that not only was it a beautifully designed piece, but that it was a custom piece by a smaller designer-surely hard to find just anywhere. He was dead-on, the watch was a honeymoon gift my husband purchased for me while in Capri, Italy.
Not only did he clean it-but he also reset a few of the dials that I had not done so since being back in AZ.
Check the shop out for yourself and make note that he only accepts cash
