On this page you will find refurbished timing and cleaning machines we currently have available for purchase. In some cases we have machines we have not yet gotten to so an inquiry if interested in a specific machine is never a bad idea. I tend to keep units we have sold recently around a little while in case someone is interested in them as we do often have others not ready for sale, but refurbishment on demand is always possible.
Please see our NEW FOR SALE page for cleaning, timing, and other machines straight from their manufacturers. Including the USA Made Lititz Freedom a fully automatic ultrasonic cleaning machine at an amazing price and the Wellner L1 - a very nice imported fully automatic ultrasonic cleaning machine from Germany.

Please don't make any machine choices, or purchase anything from anybody, until you have spoken to one of our technical people - it is very important that you understand what you are buying, what it does, what it may not do, and what would be a good match for you and your cleaning or timing needs. We will never try and sell you more unit than you need, or a more expensive option than you should purchase, and we will take the time to go over all the options on the market and explain what each does as well as their advantages and disadvantages. We will help you figure out the right unit and with variable payment options if we have what you need we'll help you get it. If we don't we'll help you find your choice if it's currently available.
Please Note - We Do Not Sell Parts -
yes there are a few exceptions for readily available pieces, or no actual work is required to install the part, but they are rare. There will also never be anything sold that involves electricity - we simply will participate in any harm you might do to yourself or your unit. We also do NOT share schematics or repair manuals - though we do have user's manuals. We are located in New Jersey so NJ residents will have to pay sales tax. Flexible payment options are available - please inquire. |
new update 04-21-21 - we are currently extremely busy with repairs so unless specifically requested refurbishing units will be slow in coming as the guys work through a very large number of repair units.
Be advised we have 3 pre-purchased units waiting for refurbishment - the longer you wait the longer the line - request and reserve now!
Because if you expect to see something listed before you can buy it please know I sell tons of units that never make it to the site due to the private refurbishments. When I do get them up with their photos they sell within a couple of weeks. So don't keep missing out - we can usually make you one, but it's not always guaranteed.

I can't believe I have to add this - but people have proven to be very difficult lately. We are not obligated to help you fix your unit without us; recently multiple people have spent hours trying and getting advice from our people, then immediately selling the units online, or getting angry when it turned out they needed proprietary parts, technical information, or their repair attempts didn't work and wanted us to provide more assistance. We are a business - we pay taxes, have insurance, a payroll to meet, provide healthcare for our people, and always do what we can to keep costs down, keep you from having to send your whole unit, and go out of our way to be helpful. But if we keep getting taken advantage of, or getting attacked, we will no longer be able to offer phone assistance and all units will have to be sent at first contact. I hope people will reconsider attacking, abusing, and threatening us to get what they want, when they don't get what they want, or when we can't/won't violate our clearly stated policies. We love handy people - we wish them well, but we aren't going to sell or offer them just our expensive investment in custom parts we had made.
Additionally all deals made will have to be done so in writing, and agreed upon by the Office Manager and the Owner, even if the deal comes from our head tech. We have had multiple people again take advantage of our offers to trade, or discount, by not sending what they promise when they promise, or even at all. Now everything will have to be done formally - no more conversations or text deals, and no more deals are official until run past the Office Manager and the Owner.
We still will offer the same excellent service and low prices as always, but no longer can assure you'll get a two hour conversation to help you test and identify your issue to hopefully figure out ahead of mailing what would have to be mailed and the likely pricing. It's terrible we've had to state this, and have over the years hit a few of these issues but it's just been crazy lately.

COMING SOON - Upcoming Refurbished L & R Vari-Matic III Automatic Ultrasonic Vibromatic Cleaning Machine - $1900 - (a basic Vari-Matic model can be refurbished for $1600) - this machine has stalled (I admit the guys aren't too fond of working on this heavy thing and we have been receiving a LOT of repair units) - so when it went off HOLD they set aside to make space (now we have a ready buyer for a Model II that will take precedence over finishing this one) but this Model III is close to being done. I have no timetable for when it will be ready unless requested so if interested please contact us - this might be the last Model III we have that can be refurbished. This is the last model of the Vari-Matic and comes with its adjustments on the side of the machine rather than its interior; this means you can customize the cycles per watch - a highly desirable feature. The older Vari-Matics could be changed, but then you'd have to leave them at that setting unless you wanted to open them back up. This is the perfect machine for stepping up to automatic ultrasonic performance. Machine is complete with Ultrasonic Generator and accessories and comes with a copy of the User's Manual. Has our Full Machine Warranty. Photo IS of actual machine - newly uploaded. Shipping is additional and will be costly as this is a HEAVY machine. |
No Upcoming Sales and No Repairs for this unit at the moment - if you have a simple issue it might be addressable otherwise right now we apologize but we are having a parts issue.
PLEASE SEE THE MATADOR PAGE UNDER NEW - I WILL TRY AND MAKE DEALS ON THAT UNIT GIVEN THE PARTS DELAY
SOLD - Refurbished Mark V
Ultrasonic Cleaning Machine
This unit has a late model dark blue head,
and a new ultrasonic card - giving it very
powerful ultrasonic cleaning.
The case is an older light blue model with
some wear - see photos - but priced
accordingly.
The Mark V certainly has all the rinses needed for almost all current shop requirements and is a very good cleaning unit.
Note - only four thimbles come with this machine.
Shipping is additional.

SOLD - Listed 02-12 sold 02-19 - Refurbished L&R Console - this is an Ultrasonic MANUAL Cleaning Machine with an Articulating Head - $1100
These are fascinating machines that give you ultrasonic and articulation, just without the automatic cycling. We did get more than one in our purchase so we can refurbish another if requested. UPDATE - Both units sold within a month - I don't have another that can be done quickly but we do have others that can be done with a little patience. This unit will look a bit familiar, the Tempo shares a lot with this machine's appearance. But this unit is Manual, and only has two rinses. It is ultrasonic and does have the back and forth head motion that the automatic units do. This unit has a timer, some adjustments, and is a nice step up from a Watchmaster - but it does use the full size L&R jars and will go through solution faster. These are out there, but they're not well known - we do have a couple we will be working on but this one is ready to go. Due to the head design this unit comes with the basket and key like the Vari-Matic or Tempo would. This was an interesting step and obviously was eventually combined with the Vari-Matic to make the Tempo. This is a really good consideration for small shops and hobbyists and we haven't really offered them before but did get our hands on a few. Not the current unit for sale, but the available unit is in similar condition. Machine comes with a copy of the User's Manual and our full 3 month warranty. Shipping costs additional. |
Despite Comments Online we are not always sold out of Watchmasters - it clearly states you should ask us to refurbish a unit if you want one when there is not one listed and we can usually accommodate the request immediately or quite soon. That's why not many get listed - they sell to refurbishment requests directly. We currently have 3 private requests in the queue.
We have the reputation and the experience, as well as the inventory of difficult to get internal and external components we've had manufactured, and we are working to expand our options all the time so it would be rare that we were not able to fulfill a request - so don't ever hesitate to ask for a unit.

SOLD - Refurbished MasterMatic Cleaning Machine - $500 A rarer model, this later version of the Master has an articulating head that reverses direction to increase the efficiency of the cleaning. With the multi-directional head, and two rinses, this machine is perfect for basic watch cleaning. Note this machine is not ultrasonic. Refurbished this machine is in good condition, is safe, clean, and working properly. Not always the case with these older units and their often decaying wiring. Photo is of the current unit - sorry for the Vari-Matic III in the background (it's available above) - the paint on this unit is in good condition but there is some wear to the L&R placard. I have other photos. There isn't really a manual but I give what I have - 3 month warranty. Shipping is additional. |

SOLD - Refurbished Master Cleaning Machine - $300
