Since 1974

Three Generations at the Bench.

It's About Time began as a single watchmaker's bench in a Duluth strip mall. Fifty years later, the same discipline runs through every repair, restoration, and sale that leaves our workshop.

How we work

Nothing Replaced That Can Be Repaired.

Each timepiece is opened, examined, and carefully assessed before any work begins. We'd rather clean and re-time an original part than swap it for new, because the parts a manufacture no longer makes are the ones worth preserving.

Our watchmakers train for years on the calibres they service, the same discipline the manufactures demand of their own. It's why jewelers across the region send us their hardest cases.

  • WOSTEP-certified watchmakers on staff
  • Brand-authorized service on major Swiss houses
  • Every repair backed by our two-year guarantee

Fantastic experiences both getting my watches repaired by them, and while buying this wonderful American watch, the American-designed and assembled Orion Hellcat.

I went to the shop to have my watch adjusted, and the lady who helped me was incredibly kind and did an amazing job. The adjustment was quick, and the fit is perfect now. They also have a great selection of watches in the store. Highly recommend!

It’s About Time-John’s Creek is the leader in servicing vintage watches! Shibonna expertly communicated with me throughout the repair, keeping me informed. My Gold/diamond Patel Philippe runs like new! Couldn’t be happier!

I am happy and grateful for the professionalism and grace in which the company handled my repair order while I was traveling abroad. The friendliness and familiarity of the staff is without question the best that a company has to offer. I put my complete trust in them and they did not disappoint. Thank You

It’s About Time is amazing!! They were able to fix my watch even when the manufacturer couldn’t do it. They explained the repair process and how to use my watch properly so I don’t have problems in the future.
