I 'met' Chris on-line via the NAWCC several years ago. When I learned that he operated a clock…read morerepair business, I asked him if he could inspect and hopefully repair the movement of a vintage late 1920's 'spin start' electric clock that had completely petered out. Being that I live in San Francisco, I shipped the clock back East to him to do whatever was necessary. That was 4+ years ago and this wonderful clock that once belonged to my brother has been keeping time flawlessly ever since. Update to 2022... I contacted Chris again in late October with several antique 'clock movement' issues. So far, I have shipped out a Lenzkirch and Gustav Becker movements for repair. And alas, a few more clock movements will need his attention as well... I just received the Lenzkirch clock movement back on November 4 and it is up and running/chiming perfectly! Thanks Chris! I've been collecting clocks for the last 25+ years and I feel fortunate to have found a clocksmith that I can trust to do right with my clocks!

Do not, and I do ask, do not even let this guy see your watch. I made a super mistake and put my…read moregold antique pocket watch into the washer and dryer. Broke the crystal, lost a hand and did some inside the case damage, he says he is in South Thomaston,but I had to bring the watch all the way to Boothbay for him to see. He said there was damage and that he would be able to fix it, the cost would be about $250.00 and I agreed. He said to give him a couple weeks and give him a call, he wrote the fix order on the back of his business card as a receipt. Almost three weeks later I gave him a call and he stated he had not worked on it and that it was sitting in a oil bath to fight "rust" that was building on the watch, again he said give him a week and call. I did this. A week later I called and once again he stated he has not had the time to work on my watch as he was busy with "spring time clean up" yard work. He stated to give him another week and call. Once again I gave him a week and called, he stated he did not do any work on the watch and that it was sitting at the shop and he has not been to the shop that week. At this point I was done and said, "do I need to take this some place else" and he stated to just give him a week and call and this I did, when I called for the 5th time, he stated he was not able to find the parts that he needed and that maybe if I could find a bigger shop they might be able to find the parts. All of this after he stated to me that he had all the parts needed to fix this watch, including the crystal. He said he wanted to install a plastic crystal as it would be stronger. I told him I wanted my watch back and he stated he would get it out of the "oil bath" and for me to go back to Boothbay and pick it up, "NO CHARGE" and that the oil bath will have helped the next person with the "rust" problem. A week later I picked it up, it was in a plastic sandwich bag with a business card with my name and "NO CHARGE" written on it. I got this to another repair shop and told them the story of John Thomas and they said there was no "oil " used inside the watch I stated it was sitting in a oil bath according to Mr. Thomas , she stated there was no oil as there was still residue on parts from the washer inside the watch and no sign of any oil. Do not waste your time on this clown. He is no professional in any sense of the word and lied about the oil. I would also think if there was oil involved there would have been oil inside the plastic bag he gave my watch back in! I spent more time writing this review than he did working on my watch! Maybe if you need a battery replaced he would be ok, but take it to radio shack and get it done right! I had to give him one star or I could not post this, if it were up to me he would not have that one star!

It was time to pass it from one generation to the next and the clock needed cleaned, minor repairs and adjustments to prepare it for transport to the next generation. Daniel Beaton of Matters of Time, took the time to do the work and do it well and never once suggested the clock was not worthy of being well taken care of. He even said "it is a privilege to be part of this family's story and this clock is priceless." After initial inspection he quoted the price and a time frame for the work and he kept his word. How many people do we meet in this day and age that care not only for the quality of their work, but the worth and value of the customer? I highly recommend Daniel and his work at Matters of Time.

( Just a couple of hours really ) I was very impressed with his communication. He called me as soon as the clock was ready and the cost was as quoted and was very reasonable. I would highly recommend "All About Time" to anyone needing a clock repaired based on service and price.

I just got it back and it's keeping perfect time. About 10 years before this, I sent my Rolex to California Watch Repair (another so-called Rolex repair company) to do a service, and a month later my watch had visible water droplets on the inside crystal. I found The Watch Repair Center and after speaking with Errol I sent it to him. He cleaned out all the water damage, replaced everything that was irreparable and then did a full service. It then ticked as a Rolex should, and no water issues from then on. I can't speak highly enough about Errol and his wife Michelle. 20 Stars out of 10! Seriously!

I had a budget of about 1000$ so I just knew I'd find one. I did! It had no price tag on it anywhere. My husband very carefully started to lift the side to see if it was underneath. The owner I'm assuming, a wretched woman with silver hair, proceeded to treat us like toddlers. She rudely chastised him loudly. We don't pick that up! She yelled. He immediately let it go. Then, she could have recovered and made a sale. Look, I get it, it's expensive, but you don't have to act like a banshee. But no. She stuck with being rude. I'm sorry he said, she said, loudly.... THATS WHY WE ASK. That was it. I was done. She tried to recover saying, well it's $650, soooo.... Like we couldn't have afforded it anyway. This is the second time I've had a bad experience here, with that same woman. I gave it the benefit of a doubt, but she's just a rude jerk. The prices here are ridiculous. I could buy the onyx lamp online for about 250-450, but finding the specimen and supporting small business is the reason I don't. I won't be coming back here.
