What people have said about Nathira

I brought in a 1970s dress watch with a badly faded gilt dial. I was honestly nervous about it — I had heard stories about dials being stripped and repainted in ways that look nothing like the original. Prasert looked at it carefully and was upfront: he said some areas could be touched up but that a full refinish would compromise what was left of the original printing. We went with the minimal option and I am really glad we did.

I needed a strap for an older Seiko with a slightly unusual 19mm lug width. Most shops either don't stock 19mm or offer you a generic black rubber. Chaiya was patient, showed me a few leather options he had in, and also ordered in something from a supplier he uses that arrived within a few days. The fitting itself took minutes. My only comment is that I wish there was a small display of what straps are available before you visit, but overall I was satisfied.

I inherited two watches from my grandfather and needed documentation for insurance. Nattaya prepared a written report for each piece that covered condition, visible reference numbers, and the state of the movements. The insurer accepted both documents without asking for anything additional. Clear, professional work.

The dial on my mother's watch had a water stain that had been there for years. I didn't expect much but Prasert managed to reduce it considerably without disturbing the rest of the surface. He showed me the before photographs when I collected and I could really see the difference. He was also honest that the stain could not be fully removed, which I appreciated — I would rather have someone say that than pretend it's perfect.

I was passing through Bangkok and stopped in on a recommendation from an online watch group. Needed a strap fitted on the spot and they were happy to do it while I waited. Chaiya explained why the strap I had bought online was slightly too long for my wrist and adjusted it properly. Small thing but exactly what I needed. The location near BTS is very convenient.

Used Nathira for a written appraisal on a vintage piece before including it in a household insurance policy. The report was exactly what the insurer needed — condition, photographs, a description of the movement's general state. Nattaya finished it in three working days. Quiet, professional, and very thorough.
