Hiro O.

Finally found A great place for quick high quality reliable watch repair! Especially for Rolexes! Walked in walked out... I walked in with my crystal walked right out with a pressure test and everything! If you have a vintage or a new Rolex go to these guys asap!

Great service! Replaced crystal face and did pressure test in 30 min. #vintagerolex Thank you!

Had a great experience today. I had brought Jabbar and the folks at ABC Watchwerks my favorite watch, which I had dropped. Today I got it back and it is beautiful and running perfectly. They are not only excellent watch repair people, they are also very nice human beings. It was also great fun to go to Downtown Los Angeles and the Jewelry District. You hear different languages and smell different food, it is not the usual California experience. And if you take the time to look in all the shops, you will probably see more Rolexes than in Switzerland. Thanks ABC for introducing me to this new world.

I inherited a Rolex Datejust from a family member a few years ago. It wasn't in the best of shape, but was still running. After doing a ton of research about getting it restored, I decided to take it to ABC Watchwerks in Downtown Los Angeles. The guys are truly amazing. Beau took one look at it and told me that it was made in 1963 due to the underline on the watch face along with the arrow shaped hands. I received an estimate of the work from Edvi and decided to go forward with it. After 7 weeks, I got the watch back and am very pleased. ABC Watchwerks did the following: * Movement service/overhaul * Replace crystal face * Replace balance staff * Replace bracelet with a period correct Jubilee bracelet * Refinish watch case to match "new" bracelet I would highly recommend ABC Watchwerks if you have a nice watch you want serviced or restored. The guys there are very nice, answered all my questions, and just did an awesome job with it. I'll be going back to keep the Datejust running as this will be a family heirloom to pass down.

As good as it gets here! Glad I found these guys. Staff is super friendly and shares the same passion for watches. They fixed the bezel on my 1675 so that its operable again and fixed the calendar function on my Day date. ABC watchwerks will be the only people who service my collection!

Premiym watch repair while you u wait,  icluding Omega watch I just had it repaired.

I am back at ABC Watchwerks getting my premium watch repair. Alex is very professional, friendly and does excellent work. He quotes upfront and very fair with price. I've been to many watch repair shops in Downtown L.A. and various locations in L.A. County. Still, I come back here for premier quality service and work. Consider checking with Alex for any service or wholesale watch purchase. He responses considerably quickly when you email.

After.  New crystal, gasket and comprehensive polishing of all metal surfaces.  Perfection! . . .

See all

I brought my watch in to replace the battery. It hadn't been working for over two years, and I…read morehonestly didn't think it would work again. But they fixed it in just 20 minutes, and now it's running like new. They also told me how to take care of it so I don't run into bigger issues later. Everything went perfectly. I highly recommend them!

I paid over $100 for them to replace the posts and the first time I wore them, one pair broke. Within an hour, that $100 repair went down the drain with my faith in humans to do the right thing. It wasn't even a week from the time I picked up his shoddy work. When I tried to bring it back, not only did he give me attitude, but he wanted to charge me. He even said he remembered when I came in with my male friend when we spent hundreds of dollars. He said he was willing to throw in the labor but wanted me to buy a new earring back and post which was not even gold. And he wanted to charge me $50 for a metal, (NOT gold) post and earring back. How many earring backs have you lost in your life? It wasn't just his greed that annoyed me, it was his total and utter disrespect of me as a human. I find men like this treat women very differently when there's another man with me. I wouldn't trust these folks. Plus he obviously doesn't respect older women. Steer clear.

I purchased a King Seiko in Japan during my trip in December, and it needed servicing. My fiancé…read morehelped pick out this watch for our wedding, so it holds a great deal of sentimental value. When I returned to the States, I searched for a reputable watch store that specializes in Seiko. One of the first recommended shops was Marina Bay Watch Company. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with a welcoming smile. I knew my watch required a full service, so I left it in their care for about six weeks. Michael worked on my watch and gave me both good and bad news. He explained that he attempted multiple times to pass the water-resistance seal test, but it kept failing due to the age of the crown. The good news, however, was that he was able to source a period-correct, original King Seiko crown for my watch. After installing it, the seal test passed, and I couldn't have been happier. After picking up the watch and bringing it home, I noticed that the letter "e" in the Seiko logo on the dial was slightly misaligned. I called the shop, and Michael explained that it was most likely caused by the putty used during dial cleaning. He reassured me that he is a man of his word and stands by his work. He even told me that if he couldn't fix it, he would buy me another King Seiko. Naturally, my main concern was preserving the original dial. Michael asked me to bring the watch back in, and he personally set aside time at the shop to fix the issue himself. About a week later, I received a text from him letting me know that the letter had been corrected. I was extremely happy that he was able to preserve the original dial. On top of that, he refunded me $100 for the inconvenience. I walked out feeling genuinely taken care of. Marina Bay Watch Company is the epitome of customer service and excellence, no funny business, just true professionals. I will be bringing all of my watches here for service going forward.

Located on Lincoln Boulevard, they offer a fine array of watches, jewelry and more exotic items like clocks. They were putting some new lighting in as I was there and they place is very consumer friendly for the luxury time piece consumer. Need that special holiday gift, Marina Bay Watch should be on your list. If I have any problems with my time pieces, I wind up at Marina Bay. For the holidays, make your way to MBWC! RECOMMEND.
