A quiet moment in time ⏲️

A solitary watch repairman works on a customer's timepiece amidst the wall and table clocks in his shop.

 

This is a panoramic shot of the rustic and very cramped Singwa watch store, which has been around since the late 1980s.

 

Watch repairing is sadly a dying profession today. Many of the skilled horological technicians of the past have either retired or passed on, while few young people are interested in the art of watch repair.
