"I am just writing to thank you for the prompt and efficient service on the repairs to my watch. I found you by looking through the internet and on the basis of nothing ventured, nothing gained, contacted you. After speaking to you, within seven days the problem had been sorted and the watch returned to me fully working. To say that I was impressed with the service both on the phone and the cost and the little time that you had the watch would be an understatement.  
        It is indeed encouraging nowadays to encounter such speedy, efficient and personal service and I would certainly  recommend you to family and friends should they require any clock and watch repairs in the future. Again many thanks for such excellent service and I will be in contact again if I have any other problems in the future." - Nick


"Thank you for repairing my Rotary chronometer wristwatch. At last I have found a genuine skilled Horologist, giving honest appraisals of work done, charging realistic prices.
        As a collector of fine and rare wristwatches I must have exhausted the field of so called 'Repairers', most which start their estimates in three figures, irrespective of the work required.
        Being a pensioner, your serivces remind me of the pre-war years: friendly, efficient, buisinesslike and skilled, a quality sadly lacking these days. Keep up the good work." - John


       "It is very seldom that one has the opportunity and privilege to recommend unreservedly a craftsman such as Michael Swift,  for his excellent painstaking skills in horology. Personally I have benefited from Michael Swift's most comprehensive knowledge of watchmaking since he moved to Rothesay.
        My watch collection includes several antique/vintage pieces, some dating back to 1865, which without question benefited from the expert care and skill of Michael Swift. I can say in all honesty that if anyone can fix it it will be Michael-- if the part required is obselete he will do his best to obtain or manufacture the part himself if humanly possible.
        A most positive and refreshing professional attitude, which is all too rare nowadays! I have no hesitation in recommending Michael Swift to anyone whose timepiece(s) require the BEST of ATTENTION." - Norman


        "I am extremely pleased with your workmanship and impressed that your skill has transformed an old piece of junk lying about in a drawer into a marvellous working timepiece!
        I also found the information you were able to provide regarding the watch, such as date of manufacture, type of watch, etc., to be of real value - I will not hesitate in bringing any future repairs to you and will reccommend you to friends and family!" - Grant

    
        "For fifteen years Michael Swift has serviced and repaired clocks and watches dear to family and friends, and never once have we been disappointed. Need I say more?" - Rita


        "Thank you for the repair - another success! Your service is much appreciated both for its quality and the honest and pleasant manner in which it is delivered!" - Robert


        "Having collected watches, clocks and all manner of scientific instruements from around the world (and indeed travelled the world), it is refreshing to find that here on our very own door step we have Michael Swift. It is rare in today's fast moving world to find skill, dedication and service - but that is exactly what you get from Michael. That's why I have used his services for the past ten years." - Lorne


        "I have met Michael Swift in person and in keeping with his character he combines exceptional workmanship with exceptional prices and personal service." - Simon


        "No wonder my watches travel nearly 1000 miles round trip to Michael Swift! They get the best professional care and attention vintage watches deserve - beautifully cleaned and repaired!  No job is too small for this Gentleman, whom I am pleased to say I have met twice now in person. May my collecting days continue with Michael's helpful guidance." - Caris


        "In this environment of lack of concern for older objects and the impatient need to dispose of family relics 'that are no longer working' and so considered by some as 'useless', I believe these itmes are the cherished belongings of our antecedents, and it is really important to try to keep these things and protect them for future generations.
        I truly value your efforts and believe that we have been lucky to find a real craftsman and it is refreshing that you are someone with a rare gift to carry out these repairs and the tolerance to do this on simple artefacts with no great intrinsic value but a personal association that is a great emotional comfort.
        I will be recommending your services at any opportunity" - Andy


        "It was a refreshing experience for me in these days of the 'throwaway society' that we live in to receive such a caring professional service! Great communications and repairs well documented, all repairs completed within budget and sooner than the stated time, with great care taken to pack the watches to survive the rigours of Royal Mail." - Dave
