Having read some positive reviews we headed into Lisbon full of confidence to find Nova Avenida and…read morehave my wife's Ebel wristwatch repaired. She inherited it from her mother, it's very dear to her and she's been missing having it on her wrist. The guy we saw couldn't have been less helpful, or more unfriendly. His s demeanour was of barely restrained rudeness. He told us they didn't repair that kind of watch without even examining it! Ebel owners beware!

My watch fell off my wrist as I arrived In Lisbon and as it was also due a service I asked them to…read moredo this, as well as replace the missing screw from the bracelet. The manufacturer normally charges well into 3 figures and takes a month, sending it back to Switzerland. Here took 3 days and a remarkably reasonable 2 figures cost, including actually manufacturing the missing screw themselves. The place was friendly and efficient.

I was ready to buy pretty much any watch that as soon as I walked out of was at about the same value as low Mark is down and I wasn't trying to lose 50 grand just to say I had a new one that makes no sense but the staff there is very condescending, so I just walked out. There's a reason why people work there and people shop there.....

With nothing on our agenda for the weekend, we heard about this "flea market" online and decided to…read morecheck it out. I did a bit of online research about it, and saw several pictures posted. The pics were nothing really exciting; however, it was a gorgeous Saturday in December, so we thought we'd check it out to kill time. We caught public transportation from Praça do Restauradores, which zoomed us over to the Apolonia train station and a short walk to the market. Little did that Mercado de Santa Clara was gonna be HUGE, and apparently THE thing to do on a spectacular Saturday morning!!! The pics I saw online did absolutely no justice to what we had in-store for us! The place was overflowing with what seemed like hundreds of vendors, all hawking bric-a-brac and doo-dads and even "crap"! It was definitely a "flea market," indeed!!! It was truly fun to see all the stuff folks were trying to sell and make money off of. Lots of interesting stuff; lots of uninteresting stuff. Exactly what one would expect from a flea market! We even splurged on several ponchos and blankets that were too cool to pass-up!! :D We easily spent a good hour and a-half roaming through the "aisles." Shoppers were there in-force! And, too, being right next to several outdoor cafés made it easy to refuel and people-watch! (The indoor part of the market wasn't nearly as fun; but, still worth checking out.) The market is on Saturdays and Tuesdays, so I'm thinking I might pop back there on Tuesday, as I had my eye on something that I'm crossing my fingers will still be there...! We both cannot recommend the Mercado de Santa Clara enough...!!! :D

I went here to get a new battery for my Girard P. watch. They looked at it and said they'd need to…read moresend it out, so they couldn't do it. I thought, really, you don't have the ability to change a battery on a watch brand you carry and service? So I had to wait and take the watch to the retailer where I'd bought it years ago in the States--in ten minutes that store was able to change the battery.

This was the nicest mall we visited in Lisbon…read more It was a short Metro ride from Rossi and close to Parque de Nacoes, the aquarium and the Arena. It contained both local and international stores as well as some restaurants. A huge Continente anchored the first floor and sold both groceries and some apparel. Very reasonable pricing. It's a bit outside of Lisbon, closer to the airport, so head here if in the area.

Late-night shopping is a big thing in Portugal, so the mall is open until midnight, although individual store opening times will of course vary. The selection of the stores within the mall isn't great, but the most impressive thing about it is the Architecture, the mall is stunning, with a whole glass arcade, and a mini arch which reminds me a little of London's Wembley Stadium. There weren't many international brands that I was familiar with here, I only really recognised Claire's, JD Sports, Nespresso and H&M. Many of the stores I'm sure will be interesting to the local Portuguese population though, with more familiar brands for me being elsewhere in the city. For food and drink, you can find Burger King amongst other smaller brands. The toilets aren't free, while I understand public toilets for free is less common around Europe, you shouldn't have to pay to pee, especially when you're spending money and shopping anyway. For shopping in Lisbon, I much prefer Colombo which is larger and has a better selection of places to eat and drink, but this isn't a bad alternative if you're looking for a change, something a bit more modern, or close to the Airport. 3*
