random thread about watch repair shops
i was passing by the old goh in chinatown market. I know what he is like, but he seemed to be in a good mood today. Plus, my uncle n I handed him a few watches to look at and in a swift motion he just popped open the case, I have seen more effort placed in opening tupperware.



how did he do that?



and also there is another shop i think its called oriental watch repairing just around his and also the guy inside is repairing watches and seems to have a few pieces of quirky watches there.



any one been there and how is it like?

Never been there, but now you've piqued my interest, gotta make plans to go see the other Mr. Goh.



Interesting blog, by the way.

Agree. Junior Goh passes some watches to Senior Goh for repair to lighten his burden according to my friend. He is the unsung hero who nursed our watches back to health hor. ;)

He quite ok lah.. I usually called him "Lao bang 老板！＂ and pay him full amount for the servicing in advanced and he will be very happy. Then his attitude will be changed and become very nice to u. Hahahhahahah... Also pls don't bargain the repair price! It's a taboo!

I think attitude is reciprocal one. I did send in one of my chronos to be serviced by old goh before. If you are nice to him, he will be nice back. Quite satisfied with the servicing.
