My wife had a grandfather clock that hadn't chimed in 10+ years. I called Ron and he made a "house…read morecall" to look at it. In just a few minutes, he explained the problem, how long it would take to repair and the estimated cost. I gave him the clock in March and he returned it this morning, and under his estimate too!

This clock came to us in a storage unit and not fully assembled and we know very little about it. We originally had the intention of selling the clock as we had no use for it, but after seeing it fully assembled we see how it's just a beautiful piece and we are now considering seeing if he can repair it at all and get it fully functional again and become a permanent part of our home. Highly recommend his services.

Why would i bring it back to the same place if that was his best job? I have been going to antique stores since i was 10, over 60 years. I will never recommend that repair shop.

One week, no call. I call them, leave a message. No call. I finally get someone when I call, week two, and the woman tells me it would be very expensive to shorten. I ask when I can come get it. She will call me back. No call, three weeks. I leave a threatening message that I will be coming in and if I don't have my bracelet my next stop will be the police. Show up, no bracelet, relay my concerns. Young woman says it's in a locked office that she can't enter. Fine, get a call back that it's ready, go in and collect my bracelet. Three weeks to one month.

I am elderly, and remember a downtown very different from what now often looks to me like the Tenderloin. This is not the fault of this store, but circumstances now make entering like being processed into a high-security facility. The focus is now on high-end work, and general services like wristwatch band replacement are no longer available. The staff was faultless in civility and instead of saying no, we can't do it--as is so common nowadays--I was referred to another business which I happened to know was reliable. That is, it was informed advice.

First issue was with watch repair. They supposedly have an in-house watch repair person, so I asked…read morefor an estimate to realign hands on a watch (minute hand wasn't on 12 when hour hand was on a marker). I was told that the repair person was not at the store at that time, but they would get back to me with an answer in the next few days. They never did, and so I called back. Holy cow, the run around I received rather than a simple dollar estimate. I know it's expensive, but they refused to give me a straightforward answer. Finally, I was told that "they didn't cause the problem so it's not theirs to fix." Second issue. I called informing them I was going to buy a certain watch. I asked if there was a list to be put on or if I could prepay for it so that it was mine as soon as they got one in. The person on the phone said they could do neither, but suggested I come into the store frequently to check and see if that particular watch came in that day so I could purchase it. Yeah, I'll do that. I'll swing by every day to check. For crying out loud. Then the person suggested I come take a look at what they do have on display because there might be something else I'd like. I called another dealer. They took my information and called me two days later to tell me my watch came in. They couldn't "hold" it for me, so they allowed me to buy it over the phone and I could pick it up at my convenience.
