Always have you watch repair or modify by authorised/ certified
dealers. Sometime ago Straits Times reported an imitate-brand watch
dealer in Holland Village Shopping Centre. Since the shop has
already been openly defamed, I would like to warn thread readers of
my regret of venturing there.
I would not name the shop's name, neither can I assure that it is
the same shop as featured in Straits Times. It was reported the
shop sells numerous imitate (i.e.) 'Guess' watches at high prices.
Since many caucasians are living around Holland V, the dealer
thought he can con these foreigners for a quickie.
To add, they have no proper watch repairing instruments to have
your watch prepared, so DO NOT have them repair your watch, or else
you may damage your branded watch. My brand new $400 watch was
damaged there when I request for a simple adjustment. I hope you'll
find my advice worth more than $400. It certainly would.
Not only does the shop look pathetic, I was even naive enough to
trust in their workmanship, which is using home tools to scrap and
hammer at your watch. Only caucasians and old folks made up its
customers.
Anyone with similar experience? I warn all readers, think thrice
before going.
