I have dealt with Chatel for many years. The owner is scrupulously honest and knowledgeable. Simply the best for repairs or purchase.

Navin and I had a wonderful experience with Hugues. It was special occasion for us to acquire two elegant, sophisticated time pieces by Nomos. Thank you! We appreciate you

I have had several transactions with Hughes and the service has always been exemplary. Each brand he represents is curated. As a watchmaker, he has a thorough understanding of products he offers and will assist you with making your choice.
