Good experience overall, I appreciate the time for the sales consultant to show me some pieces, and after being at this location multiple times and finally today I bought a CPO Rolex explore 2 first rolex, really clean, I appreciate the small little discount they honored as well.

Shout out to John O'Hare, Viry Galvan, Sucely Manrique and Michelle Cornejo!…read more Had my Rolex serviced here at Tourneau and it was a great experience. Awesome customer service, awesome communication and awesome work on my timepiece. Took about 4 months to complete, some advice...if you have any aftermarket pieces on your watch (IE aftermarket diamond bezel) give the team a heads up. You'll more than likely need to remove the aftermarket piece before they'll start the work. I finally had a chance to wear my timepiece out for my birthday festivities and she's running like a champ ;) Again THANK YOU TEAM TOURNEAU!

My BF had been looking to get a new watch for a while and he settled on a specific Tudor that he…read morewanted. However all the places he checked did not have the model/color combination he wanted and they didn't know when they would get them. We were told they could be backordered for months. When we came here, Ricardo was able to help us order it and have it arrive in store for pickup the next week. We put a deposit down, then came the next week as promised to pick it up. He was polite, informative, and friendly plus most importantly he was able to deliver like he promised. A couple of the other salesmen there didn't want to give us the time of day when we came to pick up the watch, but Ricardo was on point. We were also able to go right up to the service store and get the watch fitted, and the folks in the service store were friendly and quick.

I walked into Time Center and was greeted right away. I had a literal bag full of watches that all…read moreneeded new batteries. They quickly sorted through everything, recorded each watch by manufacturer on a bill of receipt, and quoted me a flat $15 per watch. When I came back, expecting to pay around $150 plus tax, they surprised me by saying they were replacing the batteries in two of the watches at no charge. No explanation, just a genuinely nice gesture that definitely earned my future business. I ended up paying about $123 out the door for all 10 watches, which works out to an average of just $12.30 per battery. Friendly, fast, honest, and efficient. I'll definitely be back the next time my watches need servicing.

After getting ripped off in Little Saigon over the years I decided to try a real big outfit. Let me…read moreexplain, all the batteries sold in Little Saigon were reasonably priced $8 to$10 but they only lasted 6 months instead of 1 year, I even had them dead during my trips so even if I bring 2 watches it was very annoying so here I am at Time center. This store has been in business over 40 years, the owners are from Thailand so I know this is really legitimate not like many fly by night outfits! It's $12 for a regular watch n $20 for the Tagheur watch battery. It took 30 minutes so we went to Sprouts market. We browse around the store they had beautiful designer watches n even cuckoo clocks! We have a dead cuckoo but I'm not sure I want it fixed the bird drove me crazy n it's too expensive to get it fixed. So this is a one stop for all your watches n grandpa clocks need. I'm at lax my flight is 3 hours! Gosh Schumer stop the shutdown already!, it'll be midnight by the time I get to Miami I'm hoboing here! But I'll have time for another review.

She walked us through the process, answered everything we asked, and never made us feel rushed or like we were taking up her time. What we appreciated most was her honesty. Erica was clear about what was realistic and what wasn't, and she never oversold our chances just to keep us hopeful. And she followed through. She said she would reach out if the watch became available, and she did exactly that. The morning she reached out, my wife and I just stared at each other, and then we were jumping around the room like a couple of kids. When we came in to pick it up, she still remembered the details of a conversation we'd had months earlier. It never felt like a transaction. The handover was relaxed, nobody rushed us, and the whole team was welcoming. If you get the chance, ask for Erica. Whether you're buying something straightforward or hoping for something that takes time, you'll be in good hands. We can't recommend her enough, thank you Erica!
