The fall resulted in damage to the cabinet and internal works. He did a great job fixing it and making the clock look as good as new. Also thought that the cost of service was very reasonable.

It was quite challenging. My husband had bought me a watch in Germany. The manufacturer stopped making that particular clockwork. So he had to find something that would fit it. He looked and he looked and he looked and finally called me and said, "Oh, I found it." He is just a delightful person to work with. The watch is working fine now. He also repairs antique clocks. That's where we have used him primarily.

Just a wonderful man, shows up on time, great product knowledge, someone you root for to succeed, and he is. How many times can you buy something years and years before and when needed the store, and even better, the same owner is still there to give you the fantastic service that caused you to go there in the first place?
Description of Work: Fifteen year old grandfather clock just stopped. Bought the clock from Mr. Fon those many years ago and just wouldn't trust anyone else to handle one of my wife's favorite things. He came to the house (20 miles) and fixed it in about an hour.

Since the clock had not been cleaned and oiled since it was received as a gift (about 20 yrs. ago), it was in dire need of servicing in order for it to begin working again. Mr. Fon showed us how to oil the clock once a year. He was the most friendly person and he was so helpful. We would definitely use his service in the future. EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!

Very meticulous inspection and thorough explanation and final cost was as estimated. The mechanism for time, chime and the pendulum were reassembled after they had been removd for shipping. Since I live close by, 2 days later I went by the shop to check progress, and the clock was hanging on the wall. He explained that he was testing it but further work was needed because the pendulum had been bent. He explained that it would take a few more days because soldering was needed. I received a call that the clock was ready. I asked for instructions for winding, etc. and he gave me very good directions and showed me how to wind both the chime and clock. He also showed me how to put the pendulum back on and how to hang the clock after I got it home. He carried the clock to my car and put it in the trunk for me. I felt very comfortable entrusting this cherished heirloom to Fon's and highly recommend this shop.

GREAT! Friendly, fast service!
Description of Work: They gave me an estimate to repair my mantle clock of which I accepted. They told me it would take approx. 7 - 10 days. I was really happy to get my clock back as it only took them 4 days to repair it. The price estimated was right on the dot. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. They also have quite a few clocks for sale in the showroom.

I have used Mr. Fon many times in the past and each time the job is done ontime or ahead of schedule and all with excellent results. The very first time I used his services was to repair a Grandfather Clock that had belonged to my deceased parents and had not run for several years. I told him that another local clock repair company had quoted me $350. just to look at the clock even before the total cost would be determined. Mr. Fon quoted me $350. total cost and repaired it complete in 1 week. It's now on its second year and running perfectly. Mr. Fon told me that my Grandfather Clock was now worth about $1500. And I had previously tried to "give it away" unrepaired for $100. just to get rid of it!
Description of Work: Repaired (3) watches. 1. Replaced the damaged circuit board in an Accuratron Wrist Watch (25 yr company award watch.) 2. Replaced the entire internal movement in an Armatron Wrist Watch with a Citizen movement. 3. Replaced the male & female clasps on a 30 yr. old Seiko Wrist Watch.
