I second Keanes. I got my watch there repaired. It was a fairly major job so they took a look at it and rang me with a quote before doing anything. It was done quickly and for what they had to do was quite resonably priced.

There is also a clock repair place near the GPO (over the discount store or Butler's Cafe) that I have heard good things about but have never used.

Keanes just did my Tag Heuer, didn't take long, and was shockingly reasonable. I expected to be parting with a fortune.

I've had one bad experience in Michel's jewellers which I mentioned on this thread. I've also used the place which Miaireland mentioned as being by the GPO. It was the very simple job of having the bracelet resized. Did it on the spot. No complaints.
