The clock's movement hadn't been serviced in over 116 years according to the 2 November 1910 inscription on the pendulum bracket by its previous servicer. Also, the clock's marble base was missing most of the Roman numerals that were formerly attached to it to serve as the dial. Bernie Maya of Chappell Jordan completely cleaned and serviced the movement and bell such that the clock mechanism now looks brand new and the clock runs like new. Bernie also polished the marble and installed new Roman numerals for the dial on the clocks marble block. What a magnificent job ! Chappell Jordan hit it out of the ballpark again !

Then a couple of months later, he says his roommate's friend stole the watch! But he will replace it with a cheaper inferior model. I told him that was unacceptable so he suggested I find my own replacement. I do, but it is not as pristine as my watch, costs me almost $400, and it also needs batteries. I take it to him (assuming he would still have the original replacement batteries-wrong! He doesn't have those batteries either! Now he wants more money to get more batteries and that "when he gets a check, he will repay me for the replacement watch". Long story, short: it's been over 1 and 1/2 years, I'm out over $500, I don't have my original watch, no batteries, no repayment, and he won't return my calls or texts! Any way you cut it, I've been scammed by this guy!! Do yourself a favor and stay away from Black Forest Watch and Clock, Jewelry, or whatever else he's calling his business now!!

I do not remember now when I first met "George" of the Time Keeper, now I am in his store every time I come to Katy. He is the personification of "Great Customer Service", I remember an instance of him willing to meet me at a designated spot to return a repaired watch to me before I left for a trip, I would not have made it to his store in time to pick up the watch and head to the airport. This was not for a "luxury" watch, he gives a good price for his wares, I recommend him highly ! A.B. The southdakotaman read more

Leonardo, the owner and the one who took care of me, is a pro. I was in and out for a watch battery and gasket replacement in less than 10 minutes for a very reasonable price. Talking to him before I left I learned that has been in the watch and clock business for decades and has worked on some very high-end pieces. (He is formally trained so I was not concerned with getting my watch damaged or scratched.) Friendly man, highly recommend. read more
