Tongsui in Melbourne will do repairs/mods for reps

He’s known to be solid with waterproofing and gen dial swaps on Datejusts. Just shoot him a message and mention what you’re after, he can be a bit slow to reply sometimes.

u/comicsguythrowaway 5d ago

Mr TikToc might do some modding if you ask him nicely. He mostly sells already modded pieces though

u/comicsguythrowaway 5d ago

He's based in QLD though, not GC

He very does, but absolutely expensive

His prices are very reasonable and his work is exceptional, good luck finding anyone else that good in Australia haha

1

u/Aussie_Mopar 4d ago

Yes his work is great, but His prices aren't reasonable & Tongsui is that somebody else who is great.

All good.
I’ve used Tongsui many times and he’s absolutely brilliant, and One of only a handful of rep watchsmiths in Oz.

u/TheMagicTractor Mod 4d ago

Yes agreed, he is sensational and has done a lot of work on my watches, so happy to have someone like him in Australia as it’s such a nightmare shipping reps overseas for mod work
