Client Testimonials
I chose to give two stars instead of one as a sign of appreciation for the fact that the store enlarges/reduces links on watches that were not purchased from them. Not obvious!
I gave a new Swiss watch to have links shortened and after two and a half days - a pin that was loose came completely free from the link. When I gave it to another watchmaker with decades of experience in the field, who himself also markets luxury Swiss watches - he left me no room for doubt that the reduction was done poorly and unprofessionally, which widened the hole in the link.
Bottom line - now it's either walking around with a pin glued by the other watchmaker with special glue, or contacting the official importer of the watch for a few new links (right now the other pins are stable, but who knows if another one will come loose in a week or two).
Anyone thinking of making any changes to a watch that was not purchased from this store - I would recommend that they give up. At least from my personal experience.

I visited the store today to repair 4 watches.
In addition to the amazing service, smiling and full of humor - I received a decent and honest service that I have not encountered in many years in Israel!
3 watches were repaired on the spot in a record time of a few minutes, and they were charged an excellent price. Another watch was recommended not to be repaired, because the cost of the repair would exceed the cost of the watch! Fairness for its own sake.
Thank you very much, I highly recommend!

I only got to the short link of my watch, I must say that the service is very kind. Will probably return in the future.
Today we came to the store to purchase a watch, and we received exceptional service from Mariano. He greeted us with a smile, patiently and professionally explained all the functions of the watch, and made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. Mariano was very fair and even went out of his way to help us, which made the purchase a particularly pleasant and enjoyable experience. We have no doubt that we will return to the store in the future to purchase more watches, and highly recommend it to anyone looking for professional and reliable service.
An amazing experience, a reliable place, service, pleasant, really good people, highly recommended, I believe I will definitely go back there again.
This store is really professional. I bought an Omega watch in the store, I damaged the date display by my own mistake and they repaired everything for free under warranty within 3 days. In the Czech Republic, the Omega service center wanted $900 for the same repair and a repair deadline of 3 months. 😂
I recommend this store for buying second hand watches. I recently bought my first Rolex there and was very pleased with the service.
Highly recommend Gottlief E. Sha'onim. High level service, personal attention, uncompromising professionalism. Shlomi and Mariano, who are experts in their field, are kind and patient professionals and gave me a sense of security the whole way.
I called in advance and they were willing to try and fix a watch I didn't buy from them.. went into the shop, fixed it on the spot, friendly service with a smile!
