Great customer service competent staff happy with my purchase!!!! Love my new watch band read more

I can't say enough good things about Timeland on Olympic. This is one of those rare family-run shops that still does things the right way. Every time I come in, they help me immediately, treat me with kindness and respect, and clearly take pride in their work. No pressure, no upselling, just honest service and real expertise. Most recently, they helped me fit and cut an alligator strap perfectly to my watch on the spot, changed it for me, and made the whole experience easy and pleasant. They were generous with their time, complimentary, and genuinely happy to help. That kind of service is hard to find these days. What really stands out is how human the experience feels. You don't feel like a transaction. You feel welcomed. They clearly care about their customers and their craft. If you're looking for watch service, straps, batteries, or just honest help from people who know what they're doing, this place is a gem. I'll keep coming back and recommending them to anyone who asks. read more

Timrland's personnel provide excellent service and guidance and are extremely helpful.

I have been here a couple of times and I am extremely happy with their fast service and reasonable pricing! I needed my watches to be serviced and put in a new battery. I recommend them to others just like the majority of their customers. read more

Timeland - My watch after a new battery was installed. - Watch Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Took my son's watch there for a battery replacement - very affordable pricing and they changed it in 5 minutes while I waited.

Experts in their craft and a great selection of watches! Bought a nice watch and clock there, and was very satisfied with the price and quality. Also needed a repair, and while I was waiting for the watch to be fixed, many people came in that have been long time customers. Each person was treated with respect and quick service - they remember most of their customers! They were able to fix the watch in good time. Would definitely return for their watches and services! read more

Great experience--my watch band was resized in under 5 minutes with excellent quality. Friendly, fast service and fair pricing.

Super skilled team working in this little shop, fixed my girl friend's watch that was broken many years ago. When all other shops we tried says it's not fixable. Thank you read more

We switched out our Rolex bands & got one of them re-sized. The service was quick and they were really nice!

I've been meaning to get back to Timeland to say thank you for fixing my late father's watch. Few of my possessions pass the threshold to qualify as invaluable. This watch or more respectfully, timepiece, came from the first Ben Bridge shop. My father joined the U.S. Navy when it welcomed Filipinos following WW2. For quite some time he was stationed in Bremerton, Washington, which is a ferry ride to Seattle. Herb and his brother Bob were the sons of Ben Bridge. Herb's service in the Navy during the war gave him a special connection with sailors. My father recalled seeing Herb barking for customers outside the family's downtown shop. He and my father, Emilio, would become lifelong friends but in the early days of their friendship, he would purchase all his jewelry, including my mother's wedding ring, from Herb. Two of Dad's lifelong keepsakes were his Omega Seamaster and this Zodiac diver's watch. After my father passed away, the Zodiac came into my possession. It was over 30 years old and needed an overhaul much like the cleaning and repairs the Omega had received when I had the Costa Mesa Ben Bridge Jeweler send it to Switzerland for a month. When my father and Herb Bridge were alive, Mr. Bridge wrote a letter that gave me a discount at any Ben Bridge Jeweler I visited. So, the diamond ring that sealed the deal with my wife was purchased through the sales associate in Costa Mesa. My wife had purchased my Tag Heuer watch, which Timeland repaired a week before I brought in the toughest challenge of them all, Dad's Zodiac. The Zodiac not only had the expected wear and tear of its initial years on the ocean while my father was in the Navy, but serious damage caused by an inept jewelry and watch repair shop in West Los Angeles. Cleaning out the salt, replacing the scratched crystal, and replacing rusted components were straightforward. The unskilled repair shop had opened the mainspring barrel, forced in wrong-size jewel bearings, and fiddled with the wind system. I kept the broken watch in storage for a decade without hope of ever wearing it on my wrist. When I brought my Tag Heuer in, I asked Timeland's owner whether she had heard of Zodiac. She told me Zodiac was from a bygone era of mechanical miracles before batteries. I was advised to bring in the Zodiac. The repair person treated my watch as a puzzle he would devote hours of tinkering and more hours of thought. He remarked of my good fortune that the replacement parts were available on eBay 50 years after the watch was made. I submit this long review out of gratitude that goes beyond the repair cost, which was very reasonable, considering. If you have a vintage timepiece that you may have given up as a futile dream, I urge you to bring it to Timeland. The staff appreciates the ingenuity of a discontinued brand and, most of all, relates to your sentimental affection for something one-of-a-kind and meaningful as a Swiss watch. By the way, I have been wearing the watch every day for the last two weeks. I'm adapting to the routine of winding it every morning. It's worth every moment of devotion while I contemplate how a device with a spring in place of a lithium battery can keep a precise measurement of the time. read more

I had 2 old Seiko wristwatches that needed extensive repairs. They have true craftsman who expertly repaired at very reasonable fees. They told me get there before 2 pm before the yoga studio opens for best parking. Get your watches repaired instead of disposing them. Highly recommended. read more

7 STARS!!! Luxury Retailers simply cannot compete with Timeland in every aspect of proficiency, price and meticulous expertise. They're amazing, honest, professional and clean. It's hand-crafted watch repair of the finest calibre. On top of that they were so loving and friendly to my sweet little girl and gave her treats! I'm a loyal customer for life already! James, Penny & New are the BEST!!! Trust me, take your fine watches here, you're in stellar hands. Much better than retailers! read more

Timeland - Watch Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

i took my breda watch in for resizing and they did it in 5 min. $15, very efficient. nice folks.

best place to buy a watch - or clock - and also to get them serviced, or get a new battery. They know what they are doing here. Great people - been there a long time with good reason. And stars like Elizabeth Taylor went here! A family owned place, with good vibes. I have had watches serviced here, and have bought two for myself here, and ones for my son and almost daughter-in-law too. read more

My beloved Seiko seemed dead in the water. I walked into Timeland and the incredibly polite gentleman who took on my problem watch glanced at it, went to a work area in back, and had it up and running in a manner of minutes. I expected a high price for the expertise, but the repair was incredibly reasonable. Every once in a while, the strip malls of Los Angeles reveal a merchant that is amazing, like Timeland. read more

I went in for the simplest task on Earth: swapping the battery of a humble Casio. A literal two-minute job. Ten minutes later, the clerk returns. - Sir? Sir? - Yes? - So, the watch is working, but look. He holds up my watch: the minute hand is dangling, swinging with gravity. I give the look. He vanishes again to "fix it." Another ten minutes. - Sir? Sir? - Yes. - The hands fell off. The update no sane customer expects: Not one but all the hands are floating inside the case sliding along the edge, bunched up with gravity. - But it's working. We're going to fix it. We will charge you only the $15 for the battery. How generous. He takes my name, compliments it (because why not), gives me no receipt, and sends me away without my watch. Two hours later, I get the call. - Your watch is ready. I drive back. Watch is ticking, price is now $17, and while I'm literally standing there with my card out, he takes a full phone call. I wait, of course. I come home and see that the hands of my watch have been scratched. See the picture. Whatever they're doing here, it's not watch repair. If you have time, money, and a watch you're emotionally ready to lose, go for it. Otherwise, run. read more

Very nice family operation with an incredible range of top timepieces. Went in with a small issue and battery need. They took care of both with ease and while I browsed around.

I walked in this morning after reading excellent Yelp reviews. I was attended to immediately by this family owned watch business: Personal and professional service rarely found these days. Prices were extremely reasonable. Mother and son and staff know their stuff. I brought in a recently purchased pre owned Rolex which they inspected, set, sized and taught me how to operate as a 1st time Rolex owner. I also purchased two jewelry cleaning products which she demonstrated to me. I will be back for all things watch related. I highly recommend this business. A former US president and celebrities have trusted them with their time pieces as does this regular ole gal. read more

The only place I will go for my watches from now on. This store is a small family run business and they know what they are doing. I got a seiko as a gift from here and being so clumsy I dropped it a couple months into owning it. The face shattered and I was so upset. I took it back to them and they had it repaired for a really decent price and fairly quickly. The owners are so sweet too and a pleasure to work with:) read more

I had 7 watches I had repaired at Timeland from Rolex, Movado, Seiko, Mark Ecko, Citizen. Every watch was fixed except for one that was missing a piece that goes into the watch. I think I know where the missing piece is at and are responsible for the missing parts. I took it to a different jewelry & watch store on Washington past Crenshaw. There's a shopping center in the plaza and there was a watch repair store in the plaza. I will never go back there. The 2 ladies who were there working asked me to leave my watch there with them to get them fixed. They said that they had another shop and that they would send it to them to get repaired. I said no longer than one day and they said yes. I left and as soon as I got home I realized that they didn't give me a receipt for the watch repair. I tried calling them on the business card they gave me, not a receipt. I called the phone number and it was never answered by anyone. I went back to the shop and I asked for my watch back. One of the ladies asked me for a receipt and I told her that she never gave me one. The other lady recognized me and said that she was sorry, and she gave me back my watch. The guy who was working on the repair center said he would fix it and they told me to leave it there for a couple of days to get it fixed because they didn't have the right parts for my Seiko Gold plated watch. The lady who was working there never gave me a receipt for it so the next day I went back to pick up my watch. I told her that nobody ever gave me a receipt but they couldn't fix my watch. I took it back from them and I have a feeling that they took out the parts of the watch out and kept the original parts. So I took my watch to the repair shop I was recommended by a friend, to Timeland is the best place to go get your watches repaired. They are very reliable and honest!! Next time you need a watch repair service go to Timeland on Olympic and Westwood!! read more

Will definitely come back for more business here. This place oozes the warm-family friendly environment you would come to expect from a small Mom & Pop business.

Incredible customer service. I was in and out of there in less than five minutes. they were super helpful and really sweet. And it was a lot cheaper than anywhere else read more

This place is incredible! Such friendly service, amazing prices and they took care of us like we were family. Taught us how to use the vintage Rolex watch correctly (winding it the right way and how to restart it when it stops) and and went out of their way to ensure we had clean jewelry with their special cleaner! If anything, this stuff is worth the visit. Shined our necklaces and bracelets and watches! Penny is the best, go see her! read more

They were able to fix my issue but were very careless with the watch. They scratched it in a couple places. I had before pictures to validate. Would not take anything of value for repair. read more

What a journey LoL! My mom gave me her vintage dual faced watch. Needed 2 mini batteries. The "place" at the mall quoted me $39.99 PER battery! I decided to go to Timeland & Ms. Penny & staff WERE not only FABULOUS but they was reasonably priced. $21 tax included for my batteries I HIGHLY RECOMMEND PENNY & TIMELAND! Thank you SO much! I'll be a new loyal customer read more

Excellent service, experienced watch repairs at reasonable price, & good watch prices!!

Penny was amazing. Got all my watch batteries replaced AND her technician was able to clean the inside side of the crystal where another "mall" shop said it couldn't be done. It looks brand new. Penny was great. All her prices were very, very reasonable. Before she took my watches she asked me to take a photo of them and she did the same. Dropped them off in the morning. Picked them up after lunch. Never going to another "mall" shop again. read more

I fell in love with this place. Is it even possible to fall in love with a watch store? A family business attentive to their customers down to the smallest details. Great selection except for possibly very high-end, but you can go over to Beverly Hills for that. Good prices too. I am a customer for life. Always kind of a thrill to walk in that door, ready to explore. Didn't even know I cared much about watches. Who knew? read more

I was in the store this afternoon to replace my Radio Watch battery, and my other watch, a solar watch, Mr.New, the technician, informed me that the watch needed to be recharged before we could set the time, but I was pressed for time. and could not return in a reasonable amount of time, so they offered to mail it to me and even meet me for a drop-off, so kind and considerate, I have been a loyal customer for over ten years now, Ms.Penny, along with her son, Mr.James, and Mr.Nu (are the best team) too handle my watch business, they are so good at what they do they are true to their word no games there sincerity oozes with honesty, any questions you might have are answered with and honest answer you can believe. Keep up the good work, you have a lifelong friend in me /and customer. read more

I brought in two watches, one just needing a battery replacement and a burberry watch that needed a big repair, because someone else previously tried to change the battery and busted it.
