Is Simon Freese (UK watchmaker) a scammer?

jolyon · Sat. 12:30am

I sent my Angelus Chronodato to him for an overhaul many weeks ago. At the beginning he was responding within the day and told me it would be done quickly. Now he and his (secretary?) Yvette are totally ignoring me when I ask for updates.

Has anyone used Simon Freese?

I sent him a Seamaster for repair in 2020 and he has failed to return my watch. I’ve been chasing him for years and he has stopped replying to my emails (before I used to get messages saying he would send the watch in a few weeks).

I get that he is probably busy and while I don’t suspect he has stolen my watch, this is completely unacceptable.

I will now file a small claims court claim against him which is going to be annoying.
