 | You can trust your watch to the capable hands of Capetown's experienced technicians. |

The last decade has brought about significant change to the centuries' old profession of watchmaking. The immense popularity of the digital quartz movement, concurrent with the minimal skills required to service them, have decimated the ranks of the career horologist. Once there were over a hundred thousand proficient watchmakers in America. Currently there may be less than one thousand of these highly trained and very specialized technicians. More often than not, today's "watchmakers" skills barely extend beyond battery changes and movement replacement. Most are ill equipped to properly execute the arcane service requirements of upscale Swiss timepieces. Our once grand industry is now rife with shoddy workmanship, excessive delays, endless "do-overs", and exorbitant prices. Consequently, it would be most ill-advised to trust your expensive watch to just anyone. Capetown's elite staff of dedicated professionals and our thirty year reputation of excellence is your assurance of quality workmanship. We guarantee it!!
