My daughter has been wearing my mother's vintage (1940s) Bulova watch, and it stopped running. I had taken it to a watch repair at a shopping mall in the Bay Area, and they tried replacing the stem but couldn't get it to run after working on it for months. Thankfully, they didn't charge me for their efforts. I decided to try Once Upon a Tyme, as they were recommended by Kevin Main Jewelers in SLO (an excellent place for jewelry repair!). The owner repaired the watch, found a matching band in a larger size to fit my daughter's wrist, and gave my daughter and me a detailed "lesson" on the proper care of this very delicate timepiece. I was very impressed with the quality of service and the speed of the repair. But the icing on the cake was the HAND-WRITTEN thank-you note I received a week later! A small gesture, but it really made an impression on me. I'll definitely take my valuable timepieces to Once Upon a Tyme when they need repairs.
Description of Work: Repaired a vintage Bulova watch (stem wasn't working properly), and replaced the band.
