Watch Services

Philippe Medawar offers unparalleled watch services, such as watch repair, watch maintenance and watch care. Those requiring watch repair services may bring their timepiece in for a repair diagnosis and free estimate. Clients who have their watch fully cleaned, oiled and adjusted are fortunate to be entered into the watch maintenance program. Contingent on the age, condition and type of watch, clients receive notification when the timepiece is due for regular maintenance. This is a valuable service because watches that are not regularly maintained encounter performance issues and often incur expensive repairs as a result of neglect. Watch care is another valuable service offered to those wishing to protect their watch investment. Philippe Medawar provides all expert watch services in a timely manner at his state-of-art Grand Rapids atelier.

His fine line of jewelry is rivaled only by his equally impressive services. Thank you for making my father and I feel right at home.
