I have been dealing in watch restoration for 20 years and employ 5 highly Swiss trained watchmakers. I started work for Somlo Antiques and was fortunate to handle quality watches from day one! These quality timepieces served the entire Swiss watch spectrum, from 18th century pocket watches and repeaters, to vintage and modern wristwatches. During my time at Somlo Antiques. I personally invested in machinery to manufacture bespoke components which were becoming obsolete. Once all the machines were operational, I decided to leave and set up on my own. All of my watch making team joined me! SHWR (Steven Hale Watch Restoration) was formed in 2005 Since SHWR became independent, we have grown beyond targeted forecasts, making our workshop second to none for restoration in the UK, if not in Europe
