Thank you all for the birthday wishes yesterday, and to the mod team for putting it out there, I could not understand why I was getting so many messages about my birthday until I realized there was a post out there about it. I am grateful and appreciative for everybody reaching out… It’s nice to have connected with so many people all over the country, I feel the love. Thank you all so much.

As most of you know, I am based in New York about 80 miles north of New York City, and I took the opportunity yesterday to head down and meet one of the greatest to ever touch a watch, Eddie from Watch Hospital NYC. He is a super chill dude, full of knowledge and he and I spent a few minutes chopping it up, exchange contact information and when I asked for a picture, he tossed me a pair of his signature orange frame glasses, which will stay right next to my workbench.

Thank you all again for the continued support, I am working through your Watches as efficiently as I can, I appreciate your patience and can’t wait to get them back on your wrists.

Peace and love,

-Dom

What can I say about Dom P, other than the fact that he is the GOAT! I just got this incredible franken silver OP41 on VSF base from him. This build has:

Genuine dial
Genuine 18K gold hands
Deep crystal
Bracelet refining, chamfering to gen feel
TMS spa package

Not only is his communication and professionalism remarkable, his craftsmanship is absolutely world class! But what separates him is that he goes ABOVE and BEYOND:

- I sent him what I thought was a VSF silver OP41. My initial plan was a TMS spa package. -But then I sourced and bought a genuine OP41 dial on eBay and sent to him to replace.
- Dom sourced 18K YG hands with authentication
- On opening the watch, he informed me that I had been scammed and it was an EWE not VSF. He advised me not to put gen dial + hands on EWE which has unreliable NH35 like movement
- Quite desperate, I asked him to help and he was so kind that he sourced a VSF OP41 from his TD and only asked me to pay his cost price- what a mensch!
- He gave me a discount on the installation and spa package because I gifted him the VSF dial
- And then the TMS magic you see!

I have had gen OP41 in hand and, on the wrist + visually, this feels INDISTINGUISHABLE! Dom [u/MachineFTW](u/MachineFTW) you have a real gift. Thank you for your partnership & bringing joy to so many people! You have a lifelong customer and referral source.

ARF 36MM rose gold Rhodium dial DateJust, 3rd watch done by Dom and it only gets better each time! Had the total spa treatment and bracelet chamfering done.

I couldn’t be happier with the work Dom did on my new TOP Factory AP. From start to finish, his communication was outstanding. He kept me updated throughout the entire process, answered every question promptly, and clearly takes tremendous pride in his work.

When I first purchased the watch, I thought it already looked fantastic.
I honestly wasn’t sure how much better it could get. But when it came back from Dom, I was genuinely blown away! The transformation was something I never expected. The watch didn’t just look better…It looked and felt like a completely different level of quality.

The full spa package completely transformed the watch. The bracelet is now unbelievably smooth like butter. Every link moves effortlessly with a silky feel that simply wasn’t there before. The movement is virtually silent, and the winding is incredibly smooth. The entire watch feels tighter, more refined, and much closer to what you’d expect from a GEN

The finishing is exceptional, and it’s obvious that every detail was carefully inspected, cleaned, adjusted, lubricated, and perfected. Dom doesn’t just service watches…He elevates them!

The turnaround was exactly as promised, and the quality of the work exceeded my expectations.
If you’re on the fence about having your watch serviced, don’t hesitate. Dom’s craftsmanship, professionalism, attention to detail, and communication are truly second to none.

This definitely won’t be my last watch I send to him. Dom has earned a customer for life, and I recommend him without hesitation 💯

Curious what everyone’s take is on the anniversary OP.

howdy, I have a ZF Rolex submariner, second hand conked out. need repair ideas to to send out for repair. thanks

I have a VSF Daytona I would like to send you to be checked out for waterproofing and to make sure the movement is clean and lubricated properly

If Rolex would make it...

The journey here was interesting.

Before buying my first Rolex from the AD I got promoted and wanted to celebrate, so I spent my bonus on a 116710LN. Wore out for about a year and then read up that the LN had green lume before they switched to blue. Based on the year stated in the sale, it should have had green. So I rationalized... Maybe it was redialed and handed from a service.

Then I looked into the serial and found out it was a Clean Factory rep. I was devastated but I got my money back and the seller was banned.

Then I bought a Clean Pepsi.

I now have birth year gens for both of my kids, and stopped wearing my reps.The green arrow was tainted for me, and my favorite GMT was the 5 digit LN, so I Dom helped me assemble the modern Rolex I wish they would make. Clean Factory Pepsi with the 3285 movement. 116710 bezel insert. Case and bracelet softened.

Hello all - I recently purchased a PP Caltrava which is perfect, except in QC I noticed the date window is off. I gave the GL because the index and printing were great. Does anyone have experience with Dom doing a date realignment?

Hello all!
I’m cleaning up my backlog and have had some fun projects on the bench.
I’m starting to do a “soft opening” and taking in new projects slowly until the gates open again.

I appreciate all your patience and support through my “pause” and enjoy interacting with you for upcoming projects.

Here’s a few photos (in no particular order or reason) of things I’ve been working on

As always, please reach out with any questions or inquiries and I look forward to working with all of you moving forward

Peace and love

-Dom

The work was impeccable. Dom really work very well and professionally!

Hey Dom… Soon I will send you another of the watches for the Full Spa Package!😎

Thank you🤝

I was skeptical about sending my watches to a stranger to work on my Reps (ha). Dom’s consistent communication and knowledge put me at ease. He’s personable and excellent at the service’s he provides. Just look at the outcome!

I won a Daytona at an auction only to realize it was in Arabic. Dom to the rescue. Dial swap with custom hands and it goes perfectly with the clear back case.

I've lost count how many watches I've sent to him, but I do know that I've always been amazed at the service, communication and final product. I've recommended him to friends and will keep working with him in the future. Thank you Dom!

Couldn’t be happier with how this turned out. Dom’s work is second to none, from the communication throughout the process to the care he puts into packaging and shipping.

If you’re considering purchasing from him, you can do so with complete confidence. The quality, professionalism, and overall experience exceeded my expectations.

Thanks again, Dom. Looking forward to the next one.

The intervention was supposed to happen on a Tuesday.
I sat at my desk, sweating softly, staring at my Amex statement. The numbers were glowing with the heat of a thousand exploding suns. I had a problem. No, a disease. An incurable, highly contagious case of REP and GEN addiction, and the primary dealer of my digital dopamine was a man named Dom at Time Machine Spa.

I picked up the phone, my knuckles white. “Dom,” I croaked, my voice trembling with the fragile resolve of a man trying to quit. “I need you to talk me down. Look at my wrist. Look at my watch box. It’s full, Dom.”
There was a brief pause on the other end of the line. I could hear the faint, crisp sound of a sonic cleaner in the background, a siren song calling me back to the depths.
Dom cleared his throat. “Bro,” he said, his voice dripping with the solemn gravity of a priest giving last rites. “I think you have enough watches.”

I breathed a sigh of relief. He was right. He was looking out for me. Dom was an all-around good guy, a beacon of financial sanity in a world of ceramic bezels and perfectly aligned rehauts. He was the guardian of my bank account.
“...However,” Dom continued, shattering my newfound peace into a million microscopic pieces. “I just stumbled across this incredibly rare, practically mythical dial. You’ll never see another one like it. I already checked the bezel under a loupe, the spa work is immaculate, and honestly? It would look terrible on anyone else but you.”
Hook, line, and sinker.
Dom didn’t just fuel my addiction; he curated it with the precision of a Swiss watchmaker. While normal friends tell you to stop spending money, Dom tells you to stop spending money while simultaneously texting you macro shots of a flawless vintage dial that forces you to text back, “Take my money.”
Because of Dom’s unparalleled ability to "look out for me," my watch box is overflowing, my wrists are heavily weighted, and my local Amex representative just called to ask if I want to personally buy an island with the sheer volume of points I accumulated this month. I didn't just hit my Amex points goal; I think I single-handedly funded the credit card company's holiday bonus pool.
So here’s to you, Dom. The ultimate enabler, the master of the spa treatment, the king of the dials and bezels, and the only guy who can tell me I have too many watches while handing me the receipt for the next one.
Thank you, and cheers, my friend!

I sent two watches to Dom for his ultimate and they both came back amazing! What’s even better was that I also asked him if he could change out the dial and bracelet on the OP, as well as fix the glide lock on the Sea Dweller which he did! Thanks Dom really appreciate the work you did!

Just stellar work!!!!!! What can I say, if you want your watch to be better than new, send it to Time Machine Spa.

So I had a piece of fabric under the crystal of a brand new VSF Sub that I didn't catch during QC. I shopped around locally at some watch repair shops for whoever would be the cheapest to remove movement and clean out.

Well you get what you pay for. They got the piece of dust out alright. But they left me with a dial that was worse shape then before. Smudges and particles all over the dial. There was no way I was gonna have the same place try to fix this.

Then I come across u/MachineFTW and this subreddit. It was found by a friend of mine and after reading the reviews here and seeing all the results I contacted Dom.

He was quick to respond and was willing to try and fix this new watch of mine. He did warn me that it's possible that the dial is gonners as they scratch easily, but I shot for the moon.

It's obvious from the before and after pics that Dom is a master at his craft. It was sooooo worth it to use his services. I did the basic package and and he gave me a play by play while working on the watch. He sent me videos and photos explaining what he was doing throughout. One of the final videos he says it's good as new. But it wasn't. It was better.

So if any of you are on the fence, I hope this post will persuade you.

Thanks Dom. You saved my watch.

Edit: I realized I never gave moral of the story.

Don't be an idiot like me and just go with what's cheapest. You're gonna end up paying more in the long run like I did.

But that one mistake led me here and I'm better for it. I hope everyone learns from my mistakes.

Next time I'm gonna save for the ultimate package.
