Best watch repair in the city

By anon on Mon, 10/23/2017 - 1:27pm

I have a watch that has, so far, confounded most watch repairers. Anyone know of someone with the skills to defeat this thing?

Have you tried The Watch Hospital on Bromfield in DTX?

I second the Watch Hospital

I've only gone there for band replacements but Yuri's Watches on Newbury has very good reviews. Yuri himself is a bit gruff but he gets the job done.

I've been using him for years to restore and repair (mostly antique, mechanical) wristwatches. He stands behind his work.

He's always done good work - on time - reasonably priced. Per the above - our repairs are simple - but he seems extremely competent for more detailed work.

Leo carroll in inman is great.

I second Sean at Leo Carroll Jewelers in Inman Square, next to the S&S. Reliable, honest, and the prices are reasonable.

George Chapman in the old diamond exchange building is great and honest. Fair warning tho, he does like to talk.

112 Chelsea St East Boston. Did a fantastic job restoring a 75+ year old watch. The watch had not been serviced since 1945.

You didn't describe the object in question, but if Chris at Watertown Watch Repair can't solve it, I'll eat my hat - and yours.

srsly. He's fixed watches and clocks for me. Passionate as a dictionary definition.

I have an old clock to which a few specialists have said, "Sorry, no can do."

Chris & Chris are highly skilled and don't push unnecessary stuff.

The only person in Boston that fix ANY watch is Angelo at A.Cohen Co. inside the jewelry building at 333 Washington St. Same time and go see him firts
