The service was quick, professional, and done perfectly. What really stood out was how friendly and welcoming Boris is--he clearly cares about his customers and takes pride in his work. It's not always easy to find places like this anymore where you feel taken care of from the moment you walk in. Highly recommend BMC Time Works for anyone who needs watch repairs or service. I'll definitely be back.

Hands down the best repair shop around for watches. Joseph…read moreknows everything about any watch and doesn't try to upsel you. You pay for the service you need. He stands behind his work and is by far the most knowledgeable person I've met when it comes to watch movements and function.

Considering it takes 5 mins. His hourly rate is 700. He is a dirt bag. A & D watch repair on Lincoln was willing to do it for free. Also the ladies at Bryn Mawr Jewelry swapped for free. Do not go to this place. Only leave reviews for exceptional service and terrible service. This is the latter. 0/10 for "Joseph"

I found him! This is the gentleman who replaced batteries and repaired watches in a kiosk at Golf…read moreMill Mall in Niles. I would get my watch batteries replaced only by him because he used quality batteries, and not the cheap ones made in China. I was down to my last functioning watch when I found one of the reviewers here explaining who he was. He replaced 2 of my watch batteries for the same price as in the past. This is his own space and works here with his family. He also has some lovely and unique pieces of jewelry. I am so glad to have once again found this reliable business!

Some places sell jewelry. Fuenfer Jewelers handles the things you can't replace…read more I brought in my father's ring to be resized. I thought it would be straightforward. When I picked it up, I cried. The team didn't just do the work, they treated it like it mattered, because they understood that it did. That's not something you can fake, and it's not something every jeweler knows how to do. They also helped me pick out a wedding band, which somehow felt less like shopping and more like sitting with people who genuinely wanted me to find the right one. No pressure, no pushing, just honest expertise. And when I needed a watch appraised, Brett Fuenfer took the time to walk me through everything. His knowledge is the kind you only get from someone who deeply loves the craft, and the care he brings shows in every interaction. To Brett and the entire Fuenfer team, thank you. You turned three separate visits into moments I won't forget.

Went in for a cleaning and an appraisal for updating my insurance info. They did a good job…read morecleaning it but I do not recommend them for appraisal. They appraised two platinum and and Dimond rings for 1/2 the value they were appraised for 10yrs ago. I thought that was suspicious so I got 2 more separate appraisals elsewhere those two were both pretty close to each other but both were close to 70% higher than Fuenfer so across three appraisals Fuenfer was such a large outlier it was highly likely to have been incorrect.
