Where to get a rubber watch strap fitted?

    Got a Sinn divers watch with a rubber strap. The strap though is on a clasp and has to be cut to fit the persons wrist. Sinn sent directions and a tool for the pins etc. but I am dodgy about doing it myself. Anyone know anyone who could do this for me in Ennis?

    The small watch/clock repair shop in Parnell Street across from O'Mahony's. People are always in there getting small jobs done. He keeps irregular hours, generally not open until noon on a Saturday (not sure about weekdays)

    I'd second the recommendation for the guy on Parnell St., I think the name is Galvin, I was in there recently getting a hand put back on, €5, this was after I had brought it to another place in town to try to get it fixed and I was told it was irreparable

    Yea Galvin on Parnell st. is the man to go to. Got links put on to my wrist watch there so there should be no problems.

    He cleaned up an Omega I bought years ago back when I had money. It had seized up after being dropped into a bath and I'd left it in a box for a few years. Omega had quoted Stg£225 for a service, his cost €10 and it's been fine since.
