Great guy! I called to make an appointment to have my clock repaired. Alan gave me advice advice over the phone on how to fix it. He could have had me bring it in and charge me, but instead he saved me a trip to Modesto and a few bucks! Old-fashioned customer service that you don't see much anymore. What a wonderful human being. read more

Alan was so helpful in getting my wall clock repaired. Not only did he do a quick job he taught me a few things about clocks I didn't know. I will definitely return and recommend his business to anyone. read more

I appreciate the owner Alan for a great job always everytime i visit his place for my watch repair or change of battery. The owner is friendly, always does great service. He was able to fix one of my favorite watches that I thought it's already broken. I was so happy. So I thought to share my happy experience of his great service skill by writing this review. The cost is also reasonable and you don't need to call for appt. He welcomes walkin. Thank you very much, Sir. read more

Customer service was excellent! Friendly & prompt! Daughter had to size her watch & Alan took his time to make sure it was the right fit! Thank you! read more

We brought our clock for repair to Jeff. He gave us an estimate of $150. To oil our 400 day dome clock. He gave me an order form to totally fill out. After talking about the great items he has for sale in his shop. He gave me a pickup slip that had at the top left hand corner, in small print, $250.00. I'm 0ver 70, but I still have good reading eyes, and I brought it to his attention. He became angry and told us he never charges less than $300.00. And a cleaning will run $400.00. I understand how he was able to acquire so many antique clocks for sale. We didn't leave the clock and have no plans of ever doing business with him. read more

Alan's Clock & Watch Repair - This is the clock. I removed the hanging balls for transport. - Watch Repair Near Me - Modesto, California

Dude is a HUGE Piece of !!!! Took my Mom for Over $200 on an Old Clock she had brought in to have him repair. Old Key Wind Up Clock . Charges my Mom that Dollar Amount ( Over $200 ) and then says while he's writing up the Receipt that he CAN'T Guarantee the Clock will run correctly ? He had my Moms clock for Months too ?.. What the FAK ? Guy was a Total Douche !!! He's an Odd Duck Too ! His behavior and Antics about Clock repair is Weird. He says he can fix the Clock and at the same time says it might not last after he fixes it ? WTF ? DON'T take to this guy ! Take NOTHING !!!!! He's A HUGE PIECE OF GARBAGE ! Rip Off Artist ! read more

I called to look into having a watch repaired and when the man answered the phone it was very loud like he was outside or something of that nature, which is understandable. I couldn't hear anything except background noise and when it finally ended (Im assuming he came inside) it was silent. Finally here's how the conversation went... I said "Hello? Can you hear me?" to which he replied "Who are you trying to call?" which seemed weird to me as a business owner answering his phone that way. "I said Im trying to get my watch repaired, is this the correct phone number?" and he answered with "I answered the phone Allens Clock and Watch Repair, didn't I?". So right out of the gate I felt like telling him to **** off but I went ahead and avoided that. "I told him that I couldn't hear him when he answered the phone." and he followed with "I only do batteries and watch bands, "Im not doing anything more extensive than that." So at that point I had enough of his low level attitude so I told him I would figure it out myself. I don't know how this dude gets any business with his demeanor but just in case anyone is looking for watch repair other than what you can do with a standard watch tool kit, don't bother the man. Sub par professionalism doesn't go far with me and if you're anywhere near being the same... avoid this business. read more

Alan seems like a great guy with a lot of knowledge about clocks--he gave us a thorough tutorial on how to maintain our antique clock (which we have had for over 40 years but good to learn new things). BUT it took us over 4 months to get it back, cost $300 with no parts involved (labor only) & it never has worked right despite numerous calls back & forth. As of today, it doesn't chime the correct hours or keep time & the lovely chime it always had is diminished. I am SUPER disappointed as I love this clock & we saved $ to "get it fixed by a professional". A total waste of money! Think seriously before using Alan's repair service. read more

I would Give Alan 5 Stars but i have only been there once He is open early morning then he does Housecalls afternoon I arrived at his shop as he was leaving to do housecalls Withouth hesitation he opened up his shop and started to replace watch batterries I had gone to a jewelry store but they could not remove the backs of my 3 watches After 15 -20 mins all three were done Dont go anywhere else to replace Batterries read more

Awesome customer service, great prices, you will leave feeling like you made a friend.

It makes me sad to update this review as negative; however, I think it is very important for people looking for clock repair to know that this is not a good place to do business. Shortly after my clock was released to me, I noticed it was slowing down when chiming. It was noticeable. VERY noticeable. I contacted the owner of Alan's and left a message. I have never heard from him. I left several messages. Never heard from him again. Recently I was able to connect with Gary at The Clock Doctor. Gary had been the one to service my clock since I arrived in the Central Valley. He was unable to store it when I was moving which is why I ended up with Alan's Clock and Watch Repair. I shared with him what I was hearing and he immediately asked me if I had taken it to Alan's Clock & Watch Repair. Long story short - he has made a good living going behind this man and cleaning up the errors he has made. He described for me what he thinks is happening. When I told him I could not even change the chimes to a different tune anymore, he told me exactly what had happened. Suffice to say, I am spending another large chunk of money to repair my father's Herisheid Grandfather Clock. If it was not worth so much $ I would not do so, but it is a valuable family heirloom and deserves to be treated well. If he had even once returned a phone call, I might not be so harsh in my review. However, this is not right. read more

I had a watch that needed a new battery. Alan put in a new battery in the watch and he also discovered that the jeweler who replaced the battery previously had not replaced all the battery protectors. Alan replaced the missing parts. Now my watch is keeping the correct time. Plus he had lots of old clocks needing new homes. I guess I am going back to adopt an orphan clock. read more

Alan's clock Repair The worst customer service I have experienced! I brought a clock in to be repaired. This man is rude and obnoxious! Waite 9 months for my clock to get fixed. Decided I was tired of waiting. Went to pick it up. Told him I didn't care if the clock wasn't fixed I wanted it. He started yelling saying that If I wanted we could go at it! He challenged to argue with him. I told him I couldn't believe he was still in business talking to people like that . Then he really got mad. beware!! read more

Great Repair Shop , Took watches there for batteries and a new band . Jeff was very polite and easy to talk too . I plan on bringing my mantle clock here for its oiling / maintenance check-up next . read more

2 Watch batteries replaced for $10. Best price in town. I usually pay some ridiculous price at a jewelry store to get my watch batteries replaced. I was in and out of there in 10 minutes. He has a lot of cool clocks for sale and a cute little dog. Nice guy! Will definitely be back! read more

I have several antiques clocks and have used Alan's Clocks on multi-pal occasions. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and has always done great work. I highly recommend him to anyone needing work on antique clock restorations or movement replacements. Walt read more

Quick and very reasonable! I have a lot of watches so I need batteries all the time! I can bring in 5 watches and he replaces all the batteries in no more that 10 mins. Doesn't overcharge like the place I used to go. Hours are a little iffy. read more

Awful costumer service. I tried calling this place to get a estimate on a watch repair. All he did was laugh and scoff. He was not helpful at all. Very rude. I would not recommend this place. read more

Extremely knowledgeable about clocks and watches. If you have an antique, expensive, and/or irreplaceable clock/watch take it to him, don't trust anyone else with it. read more

Thank you Alan for taking time to show me all your amazing clocks and, of course, for fixing my Howard Miller clock. I am so anxious to hang it on the wall in the dining room - I have missed the chimes so very much. You are very informative and I am so fortunate to have met you. I also have watches which need batteries and repair, so you probably have not seen the last of me..haha......thank you again and I hope to visit your magical shop soon. Susan Candito read more

I recently had three precious clocks cleaned and repaired that I had bought over 35 years ago by Alan's Clock services and was quite pleased. Not only was he knowledgeable, but willing to teach me how to properly care for my treasured possessions. He acted professionally, keeping me informed on the status of the repair...he had to order the parts from Germany for the Grandfather clock. I highly recommend Alan's Clock and Watch Repair. read more

I recently took a cherished clock which I have owned for more than forty years to Alan for repair. He quickly determined that there was only a simple problem, and he fixed it on the spot. He only charged me for two new batteries. This kind of integrity and skill are rare and deserve not only praise, but also referral. I would recommend him to anyone, without reservation. read more

If you have any watch clock or watch issues, COME HERE! Super pleasant guy, great sense of humor and works fast. He even showed me how to make on-the-fly adjustments on my own. Will take all my watch and clock business here. read more

If you're looking for a really cool unique old clock, this is the place. Great place for gifts for dad. Haven't experienced the repair side of the shop but the collection of clocks for sale is great. read more

I have used this shop for my clocks and watches for years (over 25 years)...excellent, top notch work performed by Jeff. And, yes, as my review indicates, I (now) live in Washington state...but when I visit California in late summer I will be bringing my two clocks, and two watches for cleaning and tune-ups. And, to get there from where I will be visiting is 95 miles, one way...so you know that I trust in, and appreciate, his fine attention to detail. I can, without any reservation, recommend this business for your time pieces. read more

Alan came out on short notice and packed my 100 year old grandfather clock for moving. He did a terrific job on the spur of the moment and when he found the job to be significantly more involved than expected, he stuck by his quotes price, over my objections. Call him. He's a cool dude. read more

He really knows what he is doing and has much knowledge lots of cool clocks and prices are fair had a shatz mantel chimer type clock witch has 4 different chimes it produces and he knew the winding key and had one there made my day hard to find good ppl that can do what he dose read more

This guy is outrageously expensive. He charges $250.00 for a simple clock cleaning. I tried his competition in Modesto she is much cheaper and very good. I saved $100.00! read more

Very knowledgable about our old clock I had given to me. The only reason I rated them low is he was VERY RUDE to my wife over the phone and called her hun, babe, and never called us to tell us the clock was ready to be picked up. read more
