Terry Blochberger
Lead Watch Maker
After qualifying and earning the Joseph Bulova School of Watchmaking diploma, Terry Blochberger has been meticulously repairing watches for thirty years. Terry particularly enjoys taking an old broken, neglected time piece and bringing it back to life, restoring as close to the original as possible. When he hands it back to the customer and hears, “is that my watch?” Terry knows he has completed a job well done. Terry has extensive knowledge and experience in working in all phases of watch repair from simple quartz to complicated chronographs. After his schooling, Terry was trained by three different watch makers and he continues to learn every day. Because honesty and trust are hard to find, if Terry feels the cost of the work exceeds the value of the watch, he will always let the customer know.
