Watchworks | By Appointment Only

Southeast Portland watchmaker, by appointment, with an on-site watchmaker servicing Rolex, Omega, Tudor, Cartier, Patek Philippe and more.

Watchworks is an independent watch repair shop on SE Ash St in Southeast Portland, open by appointment Monday through Friday, 10am to 5:30pm. The shop keeps an on-site watchmaker who handles full services and overhauls, as well as vintage watch repair.

The team services a wide range of brands, including Rolex, Omega, Tudor, Cartier, IWC, Panerai, Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, A. Lange & Söhne, NOMOS Glashütte, and Grand Seiko. The shop says it is an authorized service center for Rolex, Omega, Tudor, TAG Heuer, Breitling, Cartier, and Seiko, though that status is a claim made by the business and not something verified here.

Staff hold AWCI CW21 and WOSTEP certifications, credentials tied to formal watchmaking training rather than any single brand relationship. Watchworks also buys, sells, and trades watches ranging from modern pieces to vintage, so the business handles both sales and repair work under one roof.

Because the shop operates strictly by appointment, anyone wanting a battery change, a routine service, or a repair on an older or vintage watch should call ahead to set up a visit rather than dropping in. The shop is closed on weekends.
