PNW Watch Repair / Accutron Only sales and service

A Portland watchmaker that works exclusively on Accutron watches, offering full service, overhauls and vintage repair on-site.

PNW Watch Repair operates as Accutron Only Sales and Service, a shop in Southwest Portland that has narrowed its focus to a single brand. Every watch that comes through the door is an Accutron, and the shop handles the full range of models, from common tuning-fork pieces to older, harder-to-source vintage references.

Work is done on site by a watchmaker rather than sent out to a third party, which matters for a brand like Accutron where parts and movement knowledge can be scarce. The shop offers full service and overhaul work as well as vintage repair, covering cleaning, lubrication, regulation and the kind of mechanical troubleshooting that older Accutron movements tend to need over time.

Because the business is built entirely around this one brand, there's no battery-swap counter service or quick walk-in work for other makes here. Anyone with a non-Accutron watch should look elsewhere in Portland; anyone with an Accutron, especially an older or less common model, has found a shop that deals with little else.

The location is at 534 SW 3rd Ave, Suite 407, in downtown Portland. Hours run Tuesday through Friday from 9am to 4pm, with Monday split into a short morning window and an afternoon block; the shop is closed weekends. Estimates are offered by phone before any work begins, which is worth doing first since no price list is posted.
