A good friend of mine has asked me if i know of a good Master Watchmaker in NYC, he had a bad experience with RSC NY, so i think he wants an alternative.

I promised i would ask you lot.

Thanks for your help

I have had nothing but good experience with Rolex in NYC, so I use them exclusively for my Rolex watches.

For others -- and some friends have used them with great satisfaction with Rolex as well -- I recommend Grand Central Watch Band. It's a very old, small, family watchband and watch service center located IN Grand Central Terminal; actually in the so-called Grand Central Passage. They have serviced and repaired several watches for me, reasonably, and very well.

Good luck!

Ive never actually had any dealings with Rolex in NYC, but my friend seems to have had a hard time with them.

I would consult with Grand Central Watch Band. It's a hole in the wall kiosk in Grand Central Station. It's family owned and has been there for years and years. They do repairs and they have a nice selection of vintage pieces. I've had them do minor repairs on my omega watches over the years. I bought my Rolex after leaving NYC so have not had them work on that. If they cannot do the work, I'm sure they know a good person to get it done. Very trustworthy.

This is a slightly hard place to find -- it's down a corridor that leads from the west side of the terminal out to 45th Street. Number is (212) 685-1689. You could have your friend call first.

Funny I did not even see Radioman's post about Grand Central Watch Band before my post. Guess great minds think alike!
