Watchmaker - Cambridge

[toohuge]

All,

Are there any recommendations for a watchmaker in the Cambridge area?

I have done a search, but not many results from 10 years ago.

Thanks,
Chris

I'm all agog! Since John Cronin upped sticks from Huntingdon and moved to the Cotswolds, I have not been aware of any,,,

That was a big loss to the area. I work in Huntingdon and used to love perusing his spinning display of restored classics! I was only just getting into watches at the time so didn’t fully appreciate what he could offer at the time but he did a great job restoring my omega mk2. I’ve not found anyone similar since either unfortunately OP.

I had a aircraft clock repaired by him back in the day, that display case of his was great to browse, I’ve occasionally found a few decent watches and pocket watches in the Cambs Lock shop over the years. It’s a great place to browse for curios. ( I live in Alconbury)

John Medhurst jewellers in Mill Street are always advertising watch repair and servicing, by the usual ‘Rolex trained watchmaker’. Never used them though.
