WARNING!!  This is not Ebay. WARNING!!
All our watches have been thoroughly cleaned and WORK!
 

Welcome to RetroLeds.com!! 
The visual look here is intentionally "old-school"!  It's a tribute to the '60s, '70s and '80s, the era this site is mainly focused on.  Along with vintage
LED(light emitting diode) and  LCD  (liquid crystal display) watches, we offer dozens of other items from that time period -  and select modern items that strive to recapture that era.  

Our Mission:

  • To offer vintage timepieces that are restored to as much of their original glory as reasonably possible, from daily wear to rare, high end collectibles.   All without the impulsiveness and tension of bidding in an auction.  Here you deal directly with the person who examined, cleaned, etc. the particular watch - me, Ed Cantarella, your digital watch repair & sales guy.  I love having the opportunity to customize, fit or otherwise bring together that perfect piece for you or someone you are purchasing for.

  • To offer an honest starting point to get your LED or LCD watch fixed or at least examined carefully.  Most of us own some items we would not try to fix ourselves: jewelry, cars, musical instruments, electronics equipment, guns, whatever.  These watches are complex(4000+ transistors!)  -  but with modest, proper care they can easily outlive any of us. Repair Link....

  • To maintain Links  to other sites dedicated to digital watches and products , particularly early LED and LCD items. 

Thanks again for showing up!!

See what our customers say about our service....

Ebay is addictive!! 
Do you have a problem with compulsive bidding? - I know I do! Bidding is a lot of fun, but it can also get out of control and make what should be a pleasant past-time into a guilt-ridden problem. 

You won't get to beat everyone else for that prize piece here, but you will have a chance to get your collecting habits under better control, buying physically clean pieces that are already polished, crystals buffed, buttons lubricated, bands washed clean, etc. - with virtually no  risk of buying a dead piece. This isn't a one time auction - this is a customer-dealer relationship. I'll try to be there for you before, during and after the sale.  Hopefully you'll enjoy your timepieces MORE when you've been able to ponder and compare your purchases at a leisurely pace.

The swap ends here!! 
The malicious swapping of modules is a huge problem in the digital watch world that costs us all ; fortunately, a new technology,  DataDots® can stop this.  More....
