About Us

Our History

The story of Total Watch Repair begins in 1979 when our founder, Eli Taub, embarked on a journey to pursue his American dream in Los Angeles. His venture into the world of watches began at a Woodland Hills indoor swap meet. At that time, few businesses exclusively sold inexpensive and colorful watches in the U.S., and this unique approach set the shop apart, marking the beginnings of Total Watch Repair’s success.

However, in 1994, the Northridge earthquake demolished the entire shop and halted the momentum of the thriving business. Despite this setback, Eli demonstrated remarkable resilience and determination, establishing a new store in Los Angeles and breathing new life into it with his entrepreneurial spirit.

In 2010 joining forces with his son, Edan Taub, Total Watch Repair launched its online service for nationwide watch repair and accessories. This marked a new chapter in the company’s legacy, combining decades of experience with a forward-looking approach to meet the evolving needs of watch enthusiasts across the country.
