About Me

 

 

Restoring and preserving vintage timepieces is not just my profession—it's my passion. Every watch has a story, and I’m dedicated to bringing these heirlooms back to life for future generations to cherish. Specializing in vintage Omega, Seiko, Hamilton, and ETA movements, I find true fulfillment in preserving the history and character of significant pieces.

Every watch on this site has been meticulously serviced by me or is in full working order, not requiring service. My focus is on maintaining originality, replacing only what cannot be restored, and adhering to industry-standard watchmaking practices. Details of these practices and the high standards I uphold in my watch servicing process can be found on my Watch Service page.

I am a self-taught watchmaker with training from technical articles, forums, and watchmaking courses.  Current member of the American Watchmakers-Clockmakers Institute (AWCI) and the Horological Association of Virginia (HAV) - Potomac Guild.  

Based in the Washington, DC area, I proudly serve both my local community and watch enthusiasts worldwide. If you have any questions about the timepieces on my site, are in need of care, or have questions about my process, I’d love to hear from you.

Cheers,
Kyle
