The inspiration behind the Ming 17.06 was to evolve and refine the brand’s early design language established with the 17.01 by creating a modern, minimalist time-only watch that blends thoughtful aesthetics with technical substance, using clean, layered dials and distinctive proportions to emphasize clarity and depth while offering accessible luxury; it represents Ming’s focus on design, texture, light play, and detail-driven execution rather than traditional horological heritage, capturing both contemporary style and horological enthusiasm in a 38 mm stainless steel package that resonated strongly with collectors and earned recognition at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève.

Ming 17.09 Watch Repair >
The Ming 17.09 was inspired as a refined evolution and fitting finale to Ming’s original 17 series, building on the minimalist ethos of the 17.01 but incorporating more advanced design language and technical updates such as laser-etched, lume-filled indices on the underside of the sapphire crystal, a dynamic two-piece dial with a Clous-de-Paris centre and brushed outer ring, and a modified movement with independent hour hand adjustment, all aimed at creating a sophisticated yet everyday wearable time-only watch that reflects Ming’s distinctive graphic aesthetic and commitment to continuous refinement.

Ming 22.01 GMT Watch Repair >
The Ming 22.01 GMT was inspired by the idea of bringing back a GMT complication for the brand as global travel resumed, marking Ming’s first GMT model since 2018 while bridging design cues between the outgoing 17-series and the newer 37-series; its dial designs draw on contrasting inspirations such as the serene textures and colours of traditional Japanese gardens (in the Kyoto version) and a punchier, modern take on early brass and gilt watches (in the Gilt version), all wrapped in a refined 38 mm titanium case that reflects Ming’s signature multilayered aesthetic and functional sophistication.

Ming 37.02 Watch Repair >
The inspiration behind the Ming 37.02 Minimalist was to showcase what Ming considers the purest expression of its design philosophy by creating a time-only watch that distills the brand’s distinctive aesthetic into a minimalist form while incorporating innovative technical details like a sapphire dial with proprietary white-emission luminous material, marking a major milestone as the first watch designed, engineered, and production-managed internally by the brand’s Swiss facility and representing a return to broad availability in Ming’s core collection.
We know that your Ming watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come.
Ming 57.04 Iris Watch Repair >
The inspiration behind the Ming 57.04 Iris was to celebrate Ming’s eighth anniversary by launching the brand’s fifth-generation design language with a bold new monopusher chronograph that reinterprets Art Deco through a modern, sculptural lens, featuring stepped multi-piece lugs, a dynamic dial whose multiphasic coating shifts through hues of turquoise, purple, and blue (hence the “Iris” name), and a destro configuration that reflects both technical ambition and Ming’s evolving aesthetic identity.
We know that your Ming watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Watch Repair
Jane Murray ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.
Keith Kerney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.
Matthew Emory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.
Ellen Hymes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!
Peter K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.

HISTORY OF MING
The Legacy of Ming: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
Ming Watches was founded in 2017 by Ming Thein with the goal of creating modern mechanical watches focused on design coherence, legibility, and emotional impact rather than traditional heritage or mass production. What began as a small passion project quickly gained global attention for its distinctive aesthetic, marked by layered dials, luminous sapphire elements, and carefully balanced proportions that stood apart from conventional Swiss design.
Operating as a small independent brand, Ming Watches works closely with Swiss manufacturing partners to blend contemporary design with serious horology, earning early acclaim through limited releases like the 17 series and later expanding into more technically ambitious families such as the 37 and 57. Today, Ming watches are valued by collectors for their scarcity, thoughtful execution, and clear identity rooted in modern refinement rather than nostalgia.
