Repairs, servicing and restoration for luxury and vintage watches

About

My name is David Margolis. I repair, restore and service luxury and vintage watches from my workshop in Brentford, London.

I am extremely dedicated to the study of horology. I took my first watch apart when I was just 8 years old. And I've not stopped since. My ambition is to make my own watches completely from scratch, like the legendary George Daniels. But that will take many more years of hard work. For now, I offer servicing, restoration and repairs. I use the best oils, original parts and always follow manufacturer recommendations to make sure my work is of the highest standard. For restoration work I also specialise in making replacement parts, electro-plating and re-springing hairsprings.

I take on repair, restoration and servicing jobs for all kinds of luxury watches, including vintage and antique pieces. I also take on "problem jobs" from other watchmakers, often where custom made parts are needed. I am fully insured and I provide a 2 year warranty for all my work.

David Margolis is a genius - he took my Tag Heuer 1980s Pilot watch that was in bits and put it back together for me. It is now as new. Never going anywhere else for watch repairs and service second to none. Thankyou David.
Richard Archer
What a great find David is. Fixed & serviced my vintage Heuer Carrera with no fuss and in only a few days - verses the usual 8 weeks at a main dealer. Thank you David!
Robin
My husband has a vintage omega with great sentimental value, that stop winding. Not only was David able to get it back to perfect working order he also provided an incredibly thorough service and the watch is looking and running better than ever before. David was extremely skilled and knowledge from start to finish and the cost was very reasonable.
