Norbert is a gem! My mum who is in her late 60's inherited an Omega watch from her grandfather…read more None of us had realized how expensive Omegas are and she had been taking it regularly to watchmakers in India who sadly had damaged it the last time. We were initially going to take this to the Omega boutique close by home but upon learning they ship their watches internationally she wanted to find someone local who could handle it. They searched and were fortunate to find Norbert! He fixed the most immediate areas and guided against fixing all the damage but managed to get it back working as it is has never worked so well before. His work is thoughtful and he was extremely honest so well worth the investment in her watch.

Thanks to Greg, the service technician, we were well informed and found Greg extremely knowledgeable, professional, and pleasant to work with. He went out of his way to outline availability, in accordance with our preferences, fitted both for my husband, and reviewed the features prior to purchase. Parking is available off the upper alley way for ease of access. I highly recommend Momentum Watches and Greg for all your needs! Five star products and five star servicing throughout the years.

I came here with 9 watches that needed battery change -- I know, that seems like a lot, but I like…read morewatches. I live in Seattle, but there aren't many small independent watch/clock repair shops around where I live, and this shop sounded like a gem from the yelp reviews. And it was. I randomly walked in with 9 watches past 5 pm on Friday (one of them was a little more complicated), and Mr. Hiew told me they could be ready by noontime on Monday. Wow. I've walked into a pretty well-known jeweler (B*n Bri**es) by where I live, and they'd say, "We'll call you when it's ready" (which is like a week later) or sometimes even "We have to send this out." But no nonsense like that here. It's all business. Love it. I went back a little after lunchtime on Monday, and sure enough, they were ready and packaged, with detailed description of each watch written down. This man is dedicated to watches and clocks. He's even wearing a Renata mask. (I've never even seen a Renata mask. He must be a good customer.) In case you don't know (like one previous reviewer), Renata batteries are what's considered most reliable and long lasting. They're used in the likes of Rolex (Oysterquartz), Tag Heuer and Breitling. Renata batteries cost a little more, but if your shop uses them despite the cost, you know they care. I paid 15 CAD for 8 of the watches and 25 CAD for the more complicated one. I'm a happy camper. In Seattle they charge more and do less (they'd say things like, "...and waterproofing would be extra charge"). An unassuming shop that doesn't even have a sign outside, but has customers coming back? That's my kind of shop. I'll definitely come back when I'm in town.
