Outstanding service. Took a watch that was a difficult repair and he got it done. Had hidden damage and difficult to find parts. Kept me updated at every step. Honest and friendly. Can't imagine taking any watch for any repair to anyone else. read more

We've been coming here multiple times to get our watch batteries replaced. Always a smile on his face! read more

See all

They let me know that the watch was not worth fixing. I respect a business that puts people ahead of profit!

Eastside watch repair is great! The person is very knowledgeable and trained and he does a thorough job. I took my Tag Aqua racer and he fixed it very well with original OEM ordered parts. It was a delay in getting it all done (I'm talking 6 months) but part of that delay was because of Tag Heuer parts arrival. But they sped up the replacement and ultimately addressed my needs. Thanks Eastside watch repair! read more

I came to get my watches battery replaced and they finished it within 30 mins. The value was there and the professional manner makes me want to come back again in the future read more

They are very efficient with any repairs and adjustments. I went in to get my band adjusted and it was done in 5 minutes. The people there are also incredibly polite. Will definitely go back for any future repairs read more

Fantastic and kind - super knowledgeable and I was on my way for a new battery and band for less than $30.

Really nice guy! He was helpful, friendly, and answered all my questions promptly and clearly. Would absolutely do business here again!

When I arrived at the jewelry shop, Rob was busy with another customer. I was willing to wait until he was done, but he came up to me to check in and see why I was there. I told him my watch stop working and he told me it will be a few minutes but would look at it. While I waited, more and more people came in to look for his services. About 5-10 minutes later, Rob came back with a detailed explanation of the issue and has for the watch working again. In his mind, it was a minor fix since he only had to open the watch back and tweak one thing. He didn't even charge me. I love this type of passion for his work and his dedication to his customers and his craft. I will definitely be bringing all of my watch issues to Rob in the future. read more

Not a very complicated visit, but they fixed up my dear old mom's watch with a new battery, and were professional and nice about it. A fair price, and quick turnaround. I'm sure all the other good reviews are right. Would recommend. read more

I had to see what all this praise for Rob was about :-) not only is he a super nice guy who replaced my watchband twice because I couldn't make a decision, he has also promised to look through his personal collection of watches to see if he can find a vintage Omega Seamaster to remind me of a watch my father wore for many years before he passed. As someone else said in another review Rob's the MAN! read more

It was my first time walking into this store, wanted to get a quote to fix my watch and the experience completely exceeded my expectations. They were really speedy with my service, reasonable pricing. Got me in and out quick. Made my day! read more

Rob Gamber is the watch repairer at this business, inside J Lewis Jewelry in Bellevue WA. He is a straight up guy with plenty of experience. He managed to problem solve a situation where the watch manufacturer restricts selling parts outside the authorized repair centers by arranging for the watch to be sent to a trusted place out of state. Upon return, he double checked the water resistance and timing. Excellent customer service and the people at J Lewis were also friendly. AAA+++ read more

Super helpful! Replaced the battery in my Omega and even cleaned the watched. Their price was 25% the cost of going through Omega and even any other local shops. Amazing and insightful guys that clearly have a passion for what they do. read more

Eastside Watch Repair - Replaced my Hermes watch battery in 10 minutes! - Watch Repair Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

If I could give this review a 10 star I would. I came in one day right before they closed to get my watch sized and Rob greeted me at the door and got to work. Within 10 minutes my watch was sized and rocking on my wrist. The best part was that when he came back out with my watch and I asked how much, he said "no worries, don't worry about it" I was shocked! Normally would just cost a small fee for the service but Rob was so nice and helpful that he didn't charge me a dime! Extremely happy with the service, I didn't mind to pay for that but more importantly the way Rob presented himself, not only for the service and going above and beyond. I will definitely come back to shop in your store. Anyways thank you for sizing my watch! Rob's the MAN!! P.S. sorry Rob I took me awhile to get the review out :| read more

Pretty amazing and reliable service. He quickly identified the issue and got my watch working

I had recently received a factory refurbishment on my Citizen watch when I dropped it on the tile floor at the gym and the hands came loose! Eastside Watch Repair restored the loose hand much more reasonably than the factory.Furthermore, my Swiss Army watch needed some adjustment as the previous jeweler put the wrong battery in and didn't seat the back properly. Again, Eastside fixed it while I waited which was awesome. read more

Rob is a wiz on the watch resizing! Got me sized just right at a good price, quick and knowledgeable! In and out. Love it.

I went to Eastside Watch Repair to resize a watch bracelet. Service was fast and friendly and the prices were fair. Plus, there is plenty of free parking. I highly recommend! read more

Rob at Eastside Watch repair was excellent. Not only did he respond to my inquiry immediately, but he put 2 new batteries in 2 watches in 10 minutes! I highly recommend him. read more

Great experience getting watch battery replaced! It took ~5 minutes and it worked great. Excellent customer service as well! Highly recommend!! read more

I stressed a bit about where to take my new Grand Seiko 'snowflake' to have it sized. I used to take my watches to a competitor on Capitol Hill, and never had an issue with his work, but I now live on the Eastside, and traveling across the lake to have my band resized was less than ideal. So, I scoured yelp, and landed on Eastside Watch Repair, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. As I approached the storefront, I could clearly see two employees both assisting other customers, so I figured I might have to make an appointment and come back. But as I walked through the door, I was greeted immediately with a question of whether I was here for a watch repair, and I responded 'yes'. The worker then said that she ALREADY paged Rob, who walked out as she was speaking. I introduced myself, and we shook hands. Rob can clearly crack walnuts with his vice-like grip... but that is beside the point. We talked for a minute or two; he sized the band up, and told me that he would need around 20 minutes. He offered that I relax in their well-appointed waiting room. Instead, I strolled the store, then decided to answer a text message. BEFORE I was finished composing a short note, Rob had returned with my watch. The fit was as good as it could be (there are no micro-adjustments possible on this band (are you listening, Seiko?)). He emphasized that I take care to not lose the links and pins that he removed, and explained that they will likely be needed at some future date if I wear the watch often. Then I paid a small fee, and was on my merry way. In and out in less than 10 minutes, with a perfectly fitted watch AND an important recommendation. Thanks, Rob! read more

Very prompt and reasonable prices, I called during weekend and they were closed, left a massage, received a call backed next business day , discussed of what I needed, dropped off the whatch in the morning and picked up in the afternoon fixed . Great business Thank you read more

I came here because I heard that Rob is great. He took a careful look at the problem I was having with my Davosa quartz GMT diver. He patiently explained the issues to me and I decided that the cost of repair would have been more than what I valued the watch. I'm definitely coming back to Rob for my future watch needs. He's friendly, attentive, and most importantly, really knowledgeable. Highly recommend. read more

Took in my dad's Swiss legend watch for a crystal replacement and battery change. All together it came out to be $100. $75 for the crystal replacement and $16 for the battery change. He took 5 days to get back to me with a quote and got everything done in just around 3! He was friendly and I would definitely recommend. read more

Visited this place to get batteries for two of my watches replaced. The staff was very friendly, accepted walk in and quickly changed the batteries in 20 mins. The prices are quite reasonable too. read more

It makes me so happy when I get to be the first person to review a great place. Now it is a limited group of folks who wear and use polar watches. We are the types who are burdened by the need to constantly know our times and heartrates and cadences during athletic pursuits. I also use mine to remind me of how much time I've got left on parking meters and to wake me up in the morning. So imagine my sadness when my 625xi polar watch needed a new battery and I found out it needs to go to a authorized dealer. Well you don't have to take it to a dealer but if they get the seal wrong you'll ruin the watch. So.... Can you believe that after moving to Seattle I found the only authorized dealer literally within 1000 miles was 23 minutes away? Wow! And the guy who runs the tiny booth which is inside the Fred Meyers on 148th street which is inside the Fred Meyers Jewerly store is a watch repair god. Yep, statue on Olympus of him and everything. I gave him my watch. He said come back in 15 minutes. 17 bucks later and the watch is like new. He even put back the buttons I had lost and fixed my watch band. read more

Great customer service, very reasonable prices, fast turn-around time, ask for Rob, he is very professional and so nice to customers, I'll definitely come back to this store! read more

5 stars again! Appreciate Rob's quick and friendly service. Visited again to get another watch re-size and 2 batteries replaced. Rob had it all done to perfection in 10 minutes. Then he patiently and politely made smalltalk with my father, and is now adding a magnification lens to my father's watch at a fair price. Thanks again Rob! read more

I just called to ask about repair pricing on pocket watches and got some good advise and pricing. great to find a honest watch repair shop that will take the time to help you. I'll be stopping by the store soon. thanks Rob. read more

I needed battery replacement for my SEIKO watch. When I stopped by last Thursday, he was not in. The lady said he would be back the next day and asked if I wanted to leave my watch. So I did. Next day I called in to see if I can pick it up around noon (he opens at 10 am), but he said he had't done my watch yet and would be done in the afternoon. I could't wait till the afternoon as I had to leave so I told him I would come by to pick it up Monday. So I stopped by on Monday as I told him I was going to, but he wasn't in. I already felt I wasted 5 days and this was taking too long for such a 5 minute job. I wanted to get my watch back, but the lady in the store wasn't even able to access it (she said his cabinet was locked). I left a couple of messages to him, and was finally able to get my watch back on Tuesday around noon. I was very happy with his work two years ago when I came in for battery replacement. I would've given 5 stars then, but now - 1 star. The price was reasonable then ($10.95 according to my record) but got doubled in 2 years. $21.90 including tax. It's just not worth waiting/wasting my 5 days at all with that price. read more

I took two watches in to have repaired. Rob told me it would be a week, and he probably had the parts for one of them already. Six days later, he called me up, saying that one was done, and the other would be pretty expensive to repair. The second has sentimental value - but he talked me through whether I really wanted to repair it or not, and was honest about what he would do in my situation. I wouldn't hesitate to bring any watch repair to him - the work is great, and you can tell that he has a true love for watches. read more

Rob is fantastic to work with, and his craft is flawless. I approached him about a small mod to an inexpensive watch, and he treated me with the same respect and professionalism some reserve only for expensive jobs. He was very timely, wonderful in communication, and extremely trustworthy. I highly recommend this business and Rob's amazing work! read more

I went in during lunch hour...I let Rob know that I needed battery replacement for my 2 watches and he said to come back in 15 minutes. I didn't think to ask for a quote, judging off of the reviews here. I second guessed that as I waited in my car, and went right back in 15 minutes later nervous for what the bill may be. Rob was ready with both of my watches and the batteries fixed quickly. Total came to $20...glad I read Yelp reviews of other area repair services! Quality service for the price that I was used to paying in a smaller city on the East Coast. Thankful to have Rob within a 15 minute drive for me. Bonus on the location: there's a Panera across the parking lot so you can enjoy a snack if for some reason it may take a little longer for your watch repair. read more

Terrific and prompt service. This is service center for Polaris and I was able to replace the band, too , as they had one in stock . read more

I was afraid I'd have to mail my dead polar watch to somebody who'd charge me $50 just to receive the package, but I found a small little repair shop across the lake in Bellevue. Fifteen minutes and $20 later, I was sitting in horrible Bellevue traffic but my watch was like new. The "store" is inside a jewelry store, so you sort of feel like a schmuck standing around the expensive shiny things w/no intent to buy, but the women who worked there were friendly enough. read more

I called a store at Bellevue Square about replacing a watch battery. They gave me a price that seemed a little high, and told me it would be a two hour wait! Before heading over to Bellevue Square, I took a chance and walked over to Eastside Watch Repair, and I'm glad I did. Rob quoted me a much more reasonable price, and was done in less than five minutes. Great experience all around! read more
