Products  / Services we offer:

Accutron repair and Restoration is our SPECIALTY including re-plating services and dial or chapter ring restoration. We repair and/or restore approximately 1,000 vintage Accutron watches each year. Bulova has been recommending Old Father Time for their Accutron repair since 1995. And when the owner of the Bulova Corporation needed his personal vintage watch repaired, it's sent to Old Father Time. That's why we've been
"The AUTHORITY ON ACCUTRON" since 1995.

Unlike many repairers, we charge No Additional FEES for restoration of individual case backs, pushers, crowns, or battery door components & locking rings. When we quote case restoration, it's "all inclusive". We also offer many types of case repair and re-plating services along with authentic Spaceview crystal replacements. We use only factory-correct, new/old stock Accutron components or newly manufactured factory Accutron parts from Bulova. As a Bulova Dealer and service provider we're able to offer many authentic components not available anywhere else. Because of our unique relationship with Bulova, we've been allowed to purchase tens of thousands of vintage Accutron parts. It's important to Bulova that their watches be performed competently by professional watchmakers, and with the correct parts. We professionally handle all types of restoration projects with over 65 (combined) years of experience.

Vintage Accutrons are among of our favorites, however, like any professional, full-service repair center our shop is equipped for many brands of watch repair (Spaceview, Accutron). Our staff of watchmakers is highly skilled and is either a certified or Master watchmaking professional. We've received specific Accutron repair training from Bulova Master Watchmakers and trainers. Our watchmakers attend continuing education classes either at AWCI or WOSTEP.
