Just found out today ......... how come the guy at the watch repair shop told me that UK (britian) they don't fix TIMEX watch here???

I'm just wondering why

And warning also to those who have timex watch and wanted to buy a timex watch and going here in UK Guys they said they don't fix timex watch here , so think twice before buying it

unless you always go to the phils so u can get it fix there.

now i have to send it back to the phils to get the watch fix

or maybe when we bought it its already broken

They get repaired under warranty in the UK. I know, as I sell the dumb things (not as reliable as Casio's). It takes 2-3 weeks.

That guy is taking rubbish. Timex watches have been around in the UK for a very long time, I'm sure that if you shop around you'll find a place that repairs them.

I replace Timex-Casio watches at a rate of at least 10:1

Oh no!!!! I gave my bf Timex for his birthday! and it was the special edition watches!!!! NOOOOOOO....

Oh.. they have a shop in London.. that's what the warranty card said... better tell the bf to put it back in the case and just look at it and not wear it... hehehehe...

I have now had my Timex Indiglo for over 15 months and I am happy to report that it works perfectly.

My Bulova is relegated in the bedside table drawer...

[KeithD]

Some Indiglo's are fine, but don't go any where near the high tech ones like Compass

I have a timex watch before and since it keeps on stopping I send it to the Philippines and now my mom is using it, I have a tissot watch here and so far its ok.

Eh ...?

Since you're in Scotland, you may have heard that, for many years, Timex had a large factory unit located on the Kingsway West Industrial Estate, Dundee. And once upon a time [circa 1960s] it was one of the city's biggest employers although, I believe, it's long-since closed.

But - rather than wait until you next re-visit the Phils :lol2: - how about contacting the undernoted address: ...

Timex Group UK,
PO Box 2232,
Mitcham,
Surrey
CR4 3ZX

Telephone: 01208 687 9620

Or, alternatively, try emailing them at www.http//csd@timex.com

Just a suggestion! Pity Tawi2 hasn't been online recently ... otherwise he could very possibly have helped you, as he lives somewhere in Surrey.

it must be tricky to try and keep a hourglass on your wrist

It DOES have a habit of falling off, but having to turn to the South every time I check it means I never get sunburn on my back
