I brought my old small electric table clock in today to see if it could be fixed to run again. The…read morestore employee oiled the clock, and when briefly plugged in it ran. the charge was $35. When I arrived home, the clock no longer ran when plugged in. I called the store and was told I could receive a $35 credit on the $350 next cost of fixing the clock. The clock has sentimental value to me, however the original cost of the clock was less than $10 long ago. I recommend asking the repair price before the repair work is done. I paid the $35 and would have been satisfied if the clock continued to work, but I would not have agreed to the initial $35 repair cost if known before the 2 minute repair and I won't be returning For the next $350 repair.

This is the best clock and watch repair business I have found. Other so-called 5-star services…read moredon't return calls like Chicago Clock does. I smile when I read "unfriendly" in a review of CCC. They may not have the smiling style of the other places, they just have pure competent substance. They also may not be the "low price leader" in quoting a repair. But they guarantee any repair. I just brought in to them a 6 month old watch that had a hard-to-turn crown. I had taken it first to another place that told me they fixed it but that it was corroded and needed some winding to loosen it up. I discovered it was a quartz watch that needed no winding. The place unscrupulously had charged me $68 for the so-called repair. Chicago opened it up for me while I was there and found a gnarly rubber gasket that I had probably messed up myself trying to wind a battery powered watch. The technician should rightly have called me an idiot but instead just fixed it in 2 minutes, He did not want to charge me anything. I insisted on giving him at least a $20 tip which he reluctantly but appreciatively accepted. This is the kind of business I respect and will patronize again and again going forward.

There was someone there already getting a watch battery replaced. So, while waiting, I walked around admiring their clocks and watches. They have quite a selection - great if you need a nice clock for yourself or as a gift. I took some pictures and a short video and posted them for you to see. When it was my turn, he took the watch and went in the back. It didn't take much more than five minutes for him to return with the watch working again! And the price was very reasonable, under $20. Fun store with good service.

This place is absolutely massive it is a treasure trove of artifacts with three floors to search and find anything and everything imaginable. This store puts most of the antique stores in Illinois to shame just because of what it offers. Formally this place was a senior living center and I am happy that they repurposed the building for something like this. There's an elevator and it moves very slowly. What's even cooler is that at the checkout they have beer in the cooler! How awesome is that besides all the snacks and munchies. I can't believe this business has been open for well over a year and a half this place is truly a hidden gem. Prices here are pretty good compared to most antique stores. Immense parking across the street or Park on the street. Highly recommend stopping in!

A wonderful and amazing business. Expertise combined with graciousness…read more I brought in two clocks. One I had acquired about 40 years ago in downtown Chicago and the other a relatively cheap clock of which I was very fond. It turned out that there was nothing wrong with the older clock (please don't ask me to explain my stupidity) but the gentleman pictured cleaned it and told me all about its history. I was able to take it home immediately and he charged me a grand total of $8 for that very kind service. The other was a much more modern clock, one of four that I owned. It actually needed Far more work. Again, he explained its history. I received a call that I could pick up the second clock and a young gentleman whose family has been involved in the business met me with charm and graciousness. Both clocks are now perfect (and spotless). It almost makes me want to break a clock. This was a wonderful experience.
