I just went there today and got 3 watch batteries replaced. The guy working there, Steve, provided great customer service. He quoted me affordable prices and fixed the watches while I stood there. He even fixed a sound mechanism in my watch that had been installed incorrectly for free. This is my new watch place and perhaps the best service in the valley! Thank you. I have another watch that needs a battery that I'll be taking in there soon. Also, there's more parking in the back. read more

Steve , the owner is a master craftsman in all types of clock and watch repairs. Many people go there for watch battery's but he can do your garage door fob, your cars clicker, anything that uses batteries. BUT here's the clincher ... He can repair your clocks, watches, even the clock on your mantle ! He repaired my great grandmothers watch from like 100 years ago (?) and it looks and acts like a brand new one. Thank you Steve read more

Excellent service and took no time to put my watch back together and have it running perfectly thank you very much!

I messaged Steve for a quote to replace my watch battery. He responded within 15 mins with a quote of $8. Other jewelers also respond with quotes of $15, $28, and $35. I immediately drove over to "Watch the Time" where Steve was very polite and got right to work. He replaced the battery in my watch in about a minute thirty (I was quoted at 5 mins). First time customer but anytime I need anything watch related I will go see Steve. Thank you Sir! read more

Let me start my review by saying that I WILL BE A REOCCURRING CUSTOMER from now on (and that's despite the fact that this repair shop is about 25mins away from where I live... it's THAT worth it). I had four watches that needed battery changed and he finished everything in 10mins and for $5 per watch! They were very nice and accommodating too. I've been to other watch repair shops closer to my area and nothing compares to Watch The Time's customer service and prices. And since the shop is inside a grocery plaza, I got some grocery done at the same time too. Double Win! read more

Upon reading reviews, I decided to pay a visit to service my automatic Omega Seamaster. After receiving very honest advice I have saved $$$$. All I need to do is just replace the bezel and not spend money servicing it. They even tested my watch for timekeeping and it's perfect offer owning it for 17 years. The 5 stars they have on yelp are for a reason. read more

This owner of this place is very knowledgeable. I went to change my Tag Heuer watch battery. He did it very quickly and it was not expensive at all. If you are looking for a shop to take care of your favorite watch, I 100% recommend "Watch the Time" read more

Are watch makers and repair people like cobblers? Are they becoming obsolete? I drove all over the Valley (ok, only West Valley) one Saturday morning, looking for a watch repair shop that could take the link out of my new watch. Two of the locations I found on Google map no longer existed; thus, I was forced to drive further west on Vanowen. But lucky for me because now I have a new watch repair/batter/etc. place. Watch The Time has a unit inside Valley Marketplace, half a block east of Reseda on Vanowen. They are inexpensive ($5 to take off a watch link; $3 to $5 for most watch batteries) and fast. I mean, super fast! I was out of there within 5 minutes. When I decided to put one link back on, he did it quickly. Friendly service and inexpensive! I am definitely coming back. TIP: Parking - The parking lot is one way and it's a small lot. I arrived early so there were plenty of parking. But when it's errand and grocery shopping time, it probably gets crazy. read more

Found this place, thanks to the help of Yelp ratings! True to all the positive reviews, I must say I was thoroughly impressed with Steve's knowledge, speed, and skills in getting me on my way in less than 10 minutes. Not only did he replace my batteries, but he was able to quickly identify the Cartier tank watch I brought in was a replica. Therefore the battery cost only $5 (charge is $15 for authentic watch). He was pleasant and professional. I highly recommend Steve to anyone who needs watch attention! read more

I. Seen the reviews on Yelp before I called and spoked to sevag about sizing my watch he was very nice so I decided to give him a shot what can I say hands down he is the man he's fast and very knowledgeable I will definitely recommend my family/friends to him as well he gots my bussines I will be back if I have any other issues in the future read more

Was told this was the place to get my watch battery installed. Great quick service. Been there over 15 years. The shop is located inside the large Valley Produce Marketplace. Hopefully the pictures I've uploaded will help you find it, as I drove passed it. There is much easier parking in the back too! read more

See all

I'm so glad I stumbled upon this watch repair shop. Steve, who I assume is the owner, was beyond friendly and very accommodating with my watch problems. I live all the way in Koreatown but I would make the trek out here to get my watches serviced. Highly recommend coming here. A++++ service all around. read more

I went in to replace a battery on a Diesel watch and some repair work and battery on a Burberry watch. I was initially quoted $25 per battery on both watches and Steve charged only $5 per battery. Then he hard part came, the repair work. I attempted to change the battery on the burberry myself and somehow I bent the face of the watch. Within minutes Steve had the watch apart and was able to fix the fave where is works like new. He replaced the battery but the watch still wasnt working. He used his loop and found that the coil was bad. He had to order a new coil and within 24 hours the watch was working and looked like new. The prices he charged were fractions of what a big box watch repair would charge. I ended up paying less than $40 for all the work (including batteries). For a $5 battery I would have never even opened the watch myself. Steve takes pride in his work and he is an expert craftsman. I would go back to him for any and all watch issues in the future. read more

Great customer service, I was in and out with-in 15/20min. N that's because I keep asking to resize my watches lol (I'm picky w/ something's) but even as these two kids from hell kept yelling n bouncing around I still got the attention I deserved ... Sweet . Prices are low too n the guy who wrks there is knowledgeable about what he does. Head's up, the only downside ....The Parking, lol but once you're in you're good to go just pay attention to cars pulling out of parking spots read more

Honest and very affordable. I strongly advise that you visit Steve, with any of your watch repair needs. I own several vintage and modern watches and found him to be knowledgeable, patient and very honest. I am very grateful to have found his services. I am happy that I found someone who I can take all of my watches to be serviced with confidence that I will not get cheated and will have quality work done. Good luck and God bless. read more

Great service is a true rarity today and finding someone that really knows what they're doing is harder still. Steve is one of these special people. He does all his work out in the open and explains in as much detail you want exactly what he is doing. I took my Tag to him and he had all the right tools from the manufacturer and did the work in 2 minutes. I brought it back for an overhaul and he showed me the teardown protocol. Since then, I've brought him my mother's 70 year old swiss Olma wrist watch and a sixty year old german Junghans chiming wall clock and he knew exactly what each needed on the spot. For my wall clock, I had gotten a quote from a clock repair shop on Sunset of $200 for an overhaul on top of any repairs it would need. Steve overhauled it, replaced the main spring and walked me through the operation and history of the piece for $150. Typical prices for wrist watch repairs are a fraction of what they cost other places I've tried before. The ONLY complaint is that the parking behind the place can sometimes be a little tough. Street parking works best during busy times. read more

Steve at Watch the Time is a gentleman and a scholar. I needed the bracelet on my fine timepiece removed and he was able to help me in a jiffy. I will definitely be visiting him again for all of my horological needs. Pro tip: park in the lot behind Valley Produce. His fine establishment is located just inside the large yellow building. Thank you Steve! read more

Steve, the owner is great. Is's amazing that so many people know about him when his shop is hidden in the Valley Produce mall. Above all he's honest! Reasonable prices. Friendly. Efficient. Knowledgeable about watches, clocks, jewelry, etc. We highly recommend him! read more

My first few times at this shop were pleasant enough. But BOY did that change. This guy "repaired" a watch I brought to him with the intention of selling it on eBay. He claims that he goes over every watch - even when the service is just the battery, he claims to go over the watch to make sure it operates properly. Well I sold a watch that this guy "supposedly" serviced. Turns out, he missed the glaring fact that one of the function pushers didn't operate. Well, I now have a return on my record and I had to refund the buyer all because this guy missed the issue with this watch. I called him on the phone and he knew I was on my way. I get there and wanted to video the box being opened so the buyer could not claim I swapped watches. This shop owner started freaking out (actually screamed like a little girl) "Get out of my shop. I am losing business." I would not have had to go back if this guy did his job or would stand behind the work he performed. " I don't want to be involved. You will not video tape me." Then he proceeded to pull out his camera and video tape me. Hypocrite much? I told him I would NOT show his face but that I just wanted to make sure I had video proof about what the box contained. You see, in order to win my appeal case at eBay, I needed this watch repair tech to vouch for the fact that the watch was running when it left his shop. He refused to go on record so I lost my appeal. I assert that the buyer may have swapped my watch with his non-working version, but this watch tech refused to even say if this was the watch he worked on or not. LAME. WARNING: He doesn't give out a receipt (you must ask for one) for any work he does. And he will refuse to go to bat for you if any issues arise. He wound up giving me back the $25 I was out due to his error and then screamed at me NOT to post it on Yelp. Hey pal, you can't have it both ways. You either help out a customer or you do not. You chose not to help and I am choosing to let the Yelp world know what kind of shady businessman you really are. The fact that he paid me, the fact that the security guard never forced me to leave the shop... tells you I had done NOTHING wrong. I guess that's why he threatened to call the police yet never did. Even though my raising my voice he took as a threat. Really? I never threatened this clown. NEVER. I just wanted to get my watch fixed or my money back. After speaking in Armenian to two other people in the shop (which is rude) he finally realized his error and paid me. Hey, here's a tip, "Steve" - stand by your work. Even if it means standing by your customers, otherwise it reflects poorly on your business practice. Oh and he actually threatened me by telling me, "I know where you live." Because the address was on the return watch box. What does that mean? I'm moving... so come to my old house, you little whiner. You are a sad joke. read more

Excellent and quick service. I came in to have a hole punched in my leather strap, and Steve helped me in less than a minute and at no charge! Thank you Steve! read more

Best service, best pricing, best quality!!! Great experience, Steve did an amazing job...it took him less than a minute to change the battery in my watch! Very friendly and answered all my questions! Thank you, Steve! read more

I have brought two watches to Steve, and was highly satisfied with the world he did. He is friendly, engaging, and pleasant to deal with. I am thankful that there are real watchmakers around that can provide a service, rather than trying a kiosk place in a mall. Thanks! read more

I walked in to change 2 batteries for my 2 watches, awesome service, friendly & courteous, and even cleaned my watch. Highly recommended, fair prices. read more

I really like the shop service was really good. He did a very quick job on replacing the batteries. One thing to keep in mind is that most of batteries are around seven dollars however some of the batteries will be a lot more expensive and you may not expect it. These are with the chronograph watches. read more

This place is incredible. The owner who works here did a fantastic job taking care of my grandfather's old Seiko watch and did it in only a few minutes, he's very kind as well. There's tons of parking too. If you need a watch repair or are looking for a nice daily use watch then this shop is certainly your best bet if you're in the Los Angeles area. read more

Sevag is an awesome watchmaker! He fixed my watch that a different place didnt know what to do. He is very professional, honest and most important, knows what he is doing. I highly reccomend this place and will be back next time I have a watch issue. Thanks Sevag!! A+++ read more

Awesome little shop, I was in and out of the place in ten minutes, tops. The gentleman was pretty busy too! Just goes to show how much you can get done if you know what you're doing. I'm not a big watch guy, but should mine stop again, I know where I will be bringing them. A plus! read more

The best watch store I've been to around LA... Steve was very knowledgeable and helped me out at a fair price! He fixed my antique pocket watch that I had passed down to me. Works great now and looks like new! My experience was great and I Highly recommend him! read more

It is great to see someone that is passionate and extremely talented in their profession. Steve has excellent customer service and is so welcoming. You won't be disappointed coming to his store. Thanks Steve for the help. read more

Just finished up having my watch looked at by Steve! He is super nice and offers incredible service. I brought my orient automatic watch in after just receiving it because I thought there was a problem with the watch dial moving. Steve looked at it for me and inspected it very closely and was able to assure me that there was no problem at all and that it was looking good shape all around. I hadn't sized it yet and Steve did it for me quick and to a perfect fit. He is really friendly, skilled, and does his best to help you with whatever you need. His store is really impressive, and he is a very experienced watchmaker that you can trust. Great experience and great service and I will absolutely be sure to come back here for all my automatics servicing needs. read more

I was super pleasantly surprised. Who would think they would have such a good experience in a watch repair store! Owners a very respectable cool guy. Wouldnt go to a different watch repair store ever, would recommend to anyone. Above and beyond work. Cheap and quick too. Speaks great English. read more

I use this guy's service all the time for My watch repair or replacing battery for my watches or my car's remote keys. They offer special service for a very reasonable prices. I'm so happy with this guy and along the last fifteen years I have been using his service he never made me disappointed. read more

I've been going to Steve for years for minor issues like batteries and sizing if watch bands. His fees for these services are so minimal they are not worth mentioning. Steve is always such a joy to work with and just the nicest person you'll ever meet. Recently I brought my husbands Tag Heuer watch that stopped running after 10 years. The dealer wanted an insane amount of money to just look at it. Steve fixed the watch at half the price and he would charge nothing if he couldn't fix it. He is one of the last of a dying breed - a truly honest tradesman. Don't hesitate for a second to give Steve your business. read more

Emailed Steve about adding a few links to my Rolex , came in and the screws didn't fit quite right. Needless to say Steve got out a dremel and made the screw smaller !!! I walked out of there in 10 minutes with my watch fitting perfectly. HIGHLY recommended to go see Steve, its inside the Valley mall heading west right past Reseda blvd.... Thanks much Steve , I will be back with all my watch needs , period !!! read more

By far one of my best repair experiences ever. The owner is super professional and pleasant and he is clearly very good at what he does. I gave up on my Cartier tank watch when the stainless steel bracelet and Cartier said it could not be fixed. Their estimate to replace was $2000. I went to inquire about a leather strap and he fixed my original band AND changed the battery for $30... DO YOU HEAR THAT CARTIER??? Steve also fixed another watch with a complicated clasp in 5 minutes flat for $10. I will definitely be back. Worth the drive. read more

Always professional always quick..... prices cannot be beat! I have used this place for basic and complex watch repairs absolutely amazing work read more

I came in to get the battery replaced in my simple watch. Two other places quoted me $15-20, so I was pleasantly surprised when Steve replaced it for only $5 in a matter of seconds! Wonderful customer service at a great price in under a minute! I'll be back for all of my clock/watch needs. Thank you, Steve! read more
