Luxury Watch Repair

[m3dave]

Bottom end of so I boukow main agents for some very good brands of watches and very good at servicing etc always take mine there 100 yds up on the left hand side

[marmaduke]

I had my Rolex cleaned and serviced at watch shop lower level of   Harbor Mall  . Seems dedicated and knowledgeable.

I was happy with his prices and workmanship

Entrusting the repair/servicing of a highend/value watch to other than an authorised service centre would IMO be very risky.

I have a 40 quid (at the time of purchase) Rotary watch that had a busted link on the strap. I got quoted 30 quid in London. Mr Wong repaired it for 100 baht although that was around 10 years back. The timepiece is around 40 years old, still keeps perfect time and I wear it most days.

I have a 30 + year old Longines  watch that stopped working  5 years ago. a friend recommended  i take it to a small shop  in Soi Burkow..  he fixed it & it still works. 5 years ago i took it to  the Longines office in Bangkok, they said i should throw it away and buy new.  ON entering Soi Burkow from Pattaya klang it is the first  shop  on your left hand side..

Sending the watch to Bangkok by mail and then entrusting them to fix the watch at any cost is far more riskly

Putting  a battery in a luxury watch kinda misses the point of engineering a  precision automatic movement 

 

A casio would have served you just as well for $20-50... ????

FYI this is the man who use to be in the Royal Garden He moved out of there 5 years ago.  He diagnosed the problem with the watch in a few minutes.  It required a new circuit board in the Tag Heuer.  $2,500 Baht and repaired in 3 hours.  Excellent.

Hi

I have a 45 year old Omega watch that had, about a year ago, stopped working. I took it to a very polite and knowledgeable repair guy in Soi Buakhao and it has worked perfectly ever since. Directions to his shop: Proceed down Pattaya Klang from the Sukhumvit, go past 3rd Road and turn into Soi Buakhao on the left. His shop is a few yards up on the left.

Parking can be difficult here though. I hope this helps

I’m guessing TAG uses ETA quartz.  You didn’t state the model so I can’t tell you which one.

 

Here are the available movements so you can have a better idea of whether you want to repair vs replace.

Nothing wrong with a Quartz watch.

Would not buy one with a battery tho

[stud858]

There is a watch repair place CNR centre Rd and soi bua khao

 

He couldn't help with my Skagen glass repair because part not available to him. I had to go to official Skagen repair agent. But I'd go back and give him a shot. Going on vibe only, worth trusting.

But vibe can be wrong. At your own risk.

I already have quite a few handwinders and automatics.  I bought a Grand Seiko quartz just out of interest and respect for what they have done with their 9f movement.  I also have an Aqua Terra quartz (in addition to 4 automatic newer Omegas) that is my daily beater.  I wouldn’t however buy a Rolex, PP, VC or AP quartz.
