Jewelers said no. We said, "Give us 3 minutes." ⏱️
A customer brought in a watch with a missing strap pin after being turned away by a big jeweler. Luckily, a recommendation from one of our amazing regulars brought him straight to us.
Now, we don’t actually repair watch movements, but a strap issue is right up our street. It took all of three minutes to fabricate a matching steel pin from scratch, grab a pair of pliers, and secure the strap. Because the fix was so quick, we didn't know what to charge, so we settled on £2.
He walked out with a working watch, a huge smile, and a promise to spread the word. No job is too small for us. We repair virtually any vintage item except white goods—so if you have something that needs a fix, bring it by! 👇
