“I prefer to support local businesses, and in this case MWC lived up to my hopes. I'm not from Australia, but MWC's customer service was top notch--not intrusive but quickly coordinated shipping to a difficult to reach location (think no DHL) and the watch arrived--alrready set within seconds to my local time--within a week. Followed up afterwards, again without being annoying. Just excellent.
The watch (Flinders Heritage Modern) is very good, though the default strap is not quite as high quality as the two additional ones I purchased (from MWC). The straps all have the company's concave buckle, which sits slightly awkwardly against the wrist. This may reduce as the bands get broken in, but a flatter buckle is typical for a reason. Minor quibbles, though. Have already recommended MWC to a friend...from Melbourne.”
“Brought my uncle from Ireland the Carlton, he absolutely loved it. We chose this design as a keepsake of his stay here in Melbourne and we liked that it had the Exhibition Building engraved in the back representing the first heritage building in Melbourne. Matthew was very helpful with all our queries. We received it the following day from ordering and it was presented in a gorgeous box with all the information regarding the watch.”
“I've had my eye on the Portsea in rose gold for a while now, and finally decided to purchase the timepiece. I must say I have been thoroughly impressed with the entire my MWC experience. I had a few questions I asked via email, and the communication was excellent. I picked the watch up in person as I happened to live close to their office. When I met Tony, he actually took me in, sat me down, and showed me how to set the watch (As it's my first automatic) and gave me some pointers on general care, and we just geeked out over watches, it was a fantastic buying experience and he really seemed to genuinely care about giving me a lux experience. I've had this on the wrist for just over a month now and it has been working perfectly. Would definitely recommend MWC and feels great to support an Australian product.”
“Can’t thank the guys enough for the watch. They invited me over to the warehouse in Melbourne to try it on. It was a fantastic experience. Can’t thanks the team enough.”
“Looked at all Australian watchmakers watches, MWC Portsea Classic was easily the most stylish watch I saw, emailed MWC with a few queries and they replied immediately and honestly. So that sold me on purchasing the Portsea Classic from them.”
“The quality of the product is great, the ease of navigating the website was also great and the watch came very quickly. Have bought from Melbourne Watch Company twice now and will continue to purchase from them.”
“I ordered my watch online and it arrived within a few days, despite the fact it was a busy time of year for deliveries. It’s a great timepiece and came in a very elegant display box. I had a great experience with my purchase.”
“The watch arrived in a timely manner. At first it took a bit of time for it to grow on me but as the hours ticked away, I found myself dialed in and admiring my Chelsea (blue) longer each time I wore it. I am delighted with my purchase and the timeless look of the watch. The quality and price are second to none.”
