I wasn't going to say anything unless someone else did, but I sent 4 watches to him end of January of last year. I asked how things were going in May and was told another week or so. Asked again in June, was told next week. Asked in July, then August when I was told 95% done. October, nothing. Last week, nothing.

So they've been gone almost a year now. No word for the past 6 months.

pivo · 23 January 2014, 08:37 AM

The last two comments are in line with my only two (phone) contacts with Rik: neither responsive nor sounding interested in my business. So I took it elsewhere.

Rikki · 3 February 2014, 11:30 AM

To Docar not sure what issue you had with your speedmaster but I believe that maybe it was the crystal issue which I addressed and as I said crystal replacement is up to the watchmaker and the owner and if you had wanted it replaced it would have been done when we initially talked about your watch. Not all crystals are replaced during a routine service especially on an obsolete watch. As I stated in my email if you want a crystal I would be more than happy to order one and install at whatever the cost is for such a crystal. I believe that was the only issue you mentioned in your letter. Rik

Rikki · 3 February 2014, 11:35 AM

Mikki I emailed you 2 weeks or so ago after you said that you might want to call it quits and asked to call and discuss sourcing parts for 80 plus year old watches is difficult at best and time consuming so it is done during down time which unfortunately hasnt been around lately seeing as all these parts have to be fit my hand no catalogues to just point and order a part. If you would like me to return them unfinished all you need to do is ask one is done the other needs one parts that I have just not been able to find so far so if you can wait I will continue to look if not I understand. Thanx Rik

Rikki · 3 February 2014, 11:40 AM

Pivo I dont kow what watch you called about to have repaired but I dont fix all brands and I talk to 50 plus people a day so refresh my memory and if you have already had it fixed sorry about that. I do my best to be instructive and courteous when talking to customers but some watches can't be fixed or parts can not be sourced and some watches are meant to be worn and when they stop throw them away it's the world we live in. I don't work on Timex either does this make me a bad guy? Thanx Rik

AJSM · 8 February 2014, 10:08 AM

I don't know about the 3 previous comments, Ive sent dozens of watches to Rikki. All services done well with in reason of time and value. Ive nothing but good to say and have had nothing but great service. Great communication. All around nice guy and awesome watchmaker!

RolexJNJ · 10 February 2014, 03:10 PM

Hi, I would recommend 2 places in Chicago:

1) Sutter's Watch Repair, a Rolex Authorized Service Center

2) Fine Swiss Watch Repair, run by Kent, a Rolex Certified Watchmaker.

Both are great, but the advantage with Kent is that you can communicate with him directly. At RSCs, you never get to communicate directly with the technician or watchmaker.

Also, his pricing and turnaround is typically better than an RSC.

Hope this helps!

Agree with this 110% - he will be servicing another watch for me this week and I have already had three done by him.

I emailed Rik the day before we flew to ask if he could help with my problem , I had a very positive reply within the hour and arrangements were made to deliver the watches .To cut a very long story short due to Thanksgiving and holidays etc it left Rik only 7days to carry out the work !
We duly collected the watches from his Workshop on a Saturday morning 7days later !!! I cannot speak highly enough of Rik and his craftsmanship The attention to detail was exceptional both watches looked like they were new items !!! and a very very nice person as well with nothing being to much trouble . I have no problem with giving this glowing review to a proper craftsman who is 110% trustworthy . So remember the name Time Care inc Seminole Fl One last thing the price was great to.I hope this will be of help as trust worthy craftsmen are getting harder to find these days

Rik is awesome and I wish there were more out there like him. His work simply speaks for itself.

madmax21 · 30 April 2016, 07:38 AM

In the Toronto area I deal with Damiani Jewellery in Woodbridge. He is pricey but good. Both watchers know Rolex like the back of their hand.

waitungh · 9 June 2016, 09:25 PM

I can recommend Graham at Superlative Time in Ealing, London.

http://superlativetime.com/

Copied & pasted from post in General Forum:

Somehow the screw had gotten loose whilst I was washing my Datejust yesturday and some water got in, with condensation appearing on the glass.

Called up Graham at Superlative Time, who urged me to get it to him asap due to possible damage to the parts and dial. Luckily he is on my route to work and I so I arranged to visit him in his workshop the next day.

Right there and then, he removed the movement, and luckily nothing bad seemed to have happened. He invited me to watch as he removed the moisture, checked the case for water resistance and condensation, checked the movement and regulation, adjusted the beat error (it was 2.2ms out), before putting it back together giving me tips on how to adjust the bracelet so it remains tight.

During all this, we had a very nice chat about servicing, showing me the difference between old and new gaskets and the wear that happens to the pivots in a watch movement and why regular servicing is necessary to prevent having to replace parts.

He also asked a very reasonable fee for an hours work and overall I got a really good impression about someone who is personable, meticulous and takes real pride in his work.

He will certainly be getting my custom in the future.

I had them put a cyclops on a Tudor and also a very light polish on one of my other watches. Prices were reasonable, nice location and they did a great job on both occasions.

70Tudorsub · 22 July 2017, 04:13 AM

Definitely a +1 for Bob Ridley and his son, Phil, at watchmakers International. My '70's Tudor sub fell to a slate floor. I sent it to him a week ago, he had gotten back to me four biz days later and they were very interested in the watch and the work it needed. They differentiated between required vs. nice to have repairs and work and explained everything in as much detail as I wanted. They answer the phone and reply to emails within a day or two. I'll post before and after pics of the actual work b[/COLOR]ut so far I can't say enough good things. They will bring my beloved watch from my dad's Navy diving days back to life!

CBG1 · 24 February 2018, 10:40 AM

Dredging up a post in this thread from 2008 (#3, below), I just called Dan at Jackson Square and had a pleasant conversation. I'll be bringing him my 16710 and a Cartier Tank for service.

Just bringing more awareness to this post and a peninsula / Bay Area watchmaker that may be an alternative to RSC.

J. W. Hall · 4 March 2018, 10:41 PM

A few days ago I went to pick up my Air-King ref. 5500 from our local watchmaker, Leo Ruffinengo at Official Time Watch in Salt Lake City: http://www.officialtimewatch.com/. Leo is a brilliant technician who clearly loves watches and loves his craft and he does a magnificent job. I enthusiastically recommend him for service.

I had the watch in for a service. I recently acquired the watch and it wasn’t keeping time well. Leo diagnosed a broken balance staff and replaced it during the service. Now with a new balance staff, new mainspring, new gaskets (and new crystal) and cleaned and lubed, the watch runs like new.

Leo was very pleased with the amplitude he measured; among the measurements he noted were 251, 265, 277, 282 and pretty low beat errors, too.

Leo said he was particularly happy with that amplitude for a calibre 1520, which is not a certified movement, of course.

As I’ve been wearing it over the previous 72 hours, it is staying within seconds accuracy.

I have always loved the minimalist beauty of these Air-Kings, and I’m thrilled Leo got mine running so well.

He inspect the watch while I wait and lets me know what's required. He'll only use genuine parts. Multi generation family run business. They opened up a brand new store which is very nice.
