Please note:
We are on vacation for most of the month of July. During that time we can still be reached via email, but our shop is closed. Please do not send any watches without first contacting us.
Thank you.
Follow these simple steps to send your vintage watch for a repair estimate:
- Contact Us First - Send an email to the address below. Describe the watch you are sending and the repair needed as best you can. Please await our reply before sending the watch. If you've already spoken to us on the phone, you can skip this step.
- Carefully Package Your Watch - Once we confirm that your watch is a make and model that we repair, carefully package and send your watch via the carrier of your choice to the address below (click here for shipping advice). Please send ONLY THE WATCH. We recommend USPS Priority Mail with insurance and delivery confirmation. We request that you do NOT send via registered mail as it requires us to make a special trip across town to the main post office and will actually delay our receipt of your watch. Please send only the watch. Be sure to address the package exactly as shown below:
- Include the Estimate Deposit - Please include a check or money order in the amount of $25 per watch to cover cost of estimate and return postage. Your deposit allows us to take the time to perform a thorough inspection of your watch so that we can give you the best possible estimate. It also covers return postage and insurance in the event that you decline our estimate. If you accept our repair estimate your deposit will be applied in-full toward the repair of your watch. Note that the estimate deposit is non-refundable.
- Make sure you include: your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and a brief description of what is wrong with the watch (as far as you know) or what you would like to have done. This is really important! If you don't tell us how to get in touch with you, and what you want done to the watch, we have a much harder time completing your estimate.
- Receive Your Repair Estimate - Very soon after receipt of your watch (usually within 48 hours), we will thoroughly inspect your timepiece and send you a written repair estimate via email. If you agree to the repair estimate we will proceed with the work and your deposit will be applied in-full toward the work to be done. If you decline the estimate, we will return the watch to you via insured priority mail and your deposit will cover our time and the return postage.
- In most cases, no additional payment is required until all work is completed, but payment for repairs must be made before the watch is returned to you. For your convenience, we accept VISA, MC, Personal Check, or Money Order. Click the credit card icons below to reach our secure payment page. In cases where the cost of repairs significantly exceeds the value of the watch, we reserve the right to request a 50% deposit before starting work on your watch.
- While in our custody, you can be assured that your watch will be handled with the utmost professional care, but we are not responsible for loss or damage incurred in transit. We handle hundreds of watches, and have never had a properly packaged watch lost or damaged in the mail.
