Create your watch store app
Watch store app: try-ons and repairs booked online, the sale at your counter
On Tuesday evening, a customer spots the pre-owned chronograph that came in that morning and books a try-on for Saturday at 11 a.m. On Thursday at 9:30, another has her battery replaced. On Saturday, the chronograph is paid for at your counter, and his loyalty card earns a point.
Give your watch store its own app for iPhone and Android, made without a line of code: new arrivals and pre-owned pieces announced by push, try-ons and workshop visits booked in your slots, and customers who keep coming back to the counter.

The Saturday try-on
Tuesday at 7 p.m., your customers get the notification "New in: a 1970s chronograph with its box and papers." The listing shows the photos, the condition and the price; its "Book a try-on" link opens the Try-ons section, where Julian picks Saturday at 11 a.m. and notes the model. The email reaches you and you set the watch aside. On Saturday, he puts it on his wrist and pays at your counter.
See appointment bookingThe 9:30 battery
The Workshop section offers 15-minute slots in the morning. Claire books Thursday at 9:30 for a battery; ten minutes later, her watch is keeping time again. She pays at the counter and scans the QR code by the till: one more point on her loyalty card, on the way to the reward you set.
See the loyalty cardThe service that comes back
In his maintenance log, Paul entered his automatic watch and the date of its last service. When he opens it, he sees that the interval you set has passed, and he books a quote slot at the workshop. The quote is made with the watch in hand, on the counter, and the service then goes to the bench.

The sections that show your watches, the ones that open your appointments, then what brings customers back.
Show your window
Two Articles sections, "New arrivals" and "Pre-owned": for each watch, the photos, the condition, the box and papers, the price. Each arrival goes out as a push notification. A photo gallery and a few videos show the store and the bench.Open your appointments
Two Appointment booking sections: "Try-ons", to come and see a watch, and "Workshop", for a battery, a strap or a quote. Each has its own hours, slot length and Google Calendar; one form serves both and asks for the brand, the model and what the customer wants. In each listing, a "Book a try-on" link leads to the section.Bring them back
The loyalty card is validated at the till: the customer scans your QR code and earns a point. Their maintenance log tells them when to stop by again. Directions, your phone number and exceptional closures, announced by push, round out the app.
The workshop, by appointment
A battery, a strap, a quote: 15-minute slots on your calendar
Set the Workshop section to your hours, in 15-minute slots for a battery, a strap or a first quote. The quote is made with the watch in hand, since the booking form takes no photo. An appointment given over the phone and entered in the linked Google Calendar blocks the slot in the app; a cancellation hands it to the next customer.
Your app, your website or workshop software?
Three tools for a watch store: what each one does to bring a customer to the counter, and what it doesn't.
| Your GoodBarber app | Your website | Workshop software | |
|---|---|---|---|
| New arrivals announced by push | Yes, to everyone or to an area | Depends on the site | Depends on the software |
| A try-on booked online, in your slots | Yes, with Appointment booking | Depends on the booking plugin your site uses | Depends on the software |
| The workshop by appointment | Yes, in its own section | Depends on the booking plugin your site uses | Depends on the software |
| A loyalty card validated at the till | Yes, with a QR code | Depends on the site | Depends on the software |
| A maintenance log on the customer's phone | Yes, through the AI Extension Builder | Depends on the site | Depends on the software |
| Repair tickets, tracking, invoices | No, the app doesn't run the workshop | Depends on the site | That's its job |
AI at work for your watch store
Three uses: a maintenance log for your customers, answers drawn from your documents, a window kept up by your assistant.
To build
A maintenance log
Ask the AI Extension Builder for a "My maintenance log" section: the customer enters their watches, quartz or automatic, with the date of the last battery or the last service. Each time it opens, the app works out the next due date from the intervals written in your request. Their notes stay on their phone, and there is nothing to configure afterwards: it all lives in the request.
Free
To answer
Your workshop rates, as answers
Give the Chatbot your workshop rates, opening hours and warranty terms; it reads PDF and Word documents, plain text and Markdown, up to 25 MB per file. "Do you replace batteries in water-resistant watches?" "How much is a leather strap?" Under each answer, a card names the document it came from.
$35/month
To operate
A window kept up by your assistant
"Post in Pre-owned an article about the chronograph that came in this morning: 1974, box and papers, serviced, $2,400." "Close the workshop on Saturday, November 14." Through MCP, Claude or ChatGPT works in your back office: it writes the article, closes the workshop for the day, then tells you what it did.
Included
Extension Store
The extensions a watch store installs. With Premium, Appointment booking is an add-on; Pro contains it. The loyalty card, which requires Authentication, and the Chatbot are paid for separately. At no extra cost: CMS sections, push notifications, the AI Extension Builder and MCP.
How much does a watch store app cost?
Your app reaches iPhone and Android as a native app from the Premium plan on. The Try-ons and Workshop sections run on Appointment booking: you add it to Premium, while Pro has it built in. The loyalty card can be added to either; with Premium, it also requires Authentication, which Pro already includes.
| Premium · iOS, Android and web app | $55 /month, billed annually |
| Appointment booking, with Premium | $15 /month |
| Loyalty card, with Premium or Pro | $8 /month |
| Pro · appointment booking included | $105 /month, billed annually |
The Standard plan publishes the web version only, with no booking and no loyalty card. Apple and Google charge for their developer accounts directly.
What our customers say
Reviews posted by GoodBarber customers, across all industries.
GoodBarber is a powerful app builder.
GoodBarber is a powerful app builder. If you want to build your app using a pre-built template, GoodBarber is ideal for you. At Global Academy, we almost completed the 5th year using their easy-to-use pre-built platforms to build premium Apps for our customers. Also, Goodbarber's customer support is excellent. Highly recommended.
Great support and always very helpful answers.

Responsive support and usually quick. Software is by far the best in the market, with tremendous capabilities for configurations.
Watch stores: questions about the app
What app builder suits a watch store or a watchmaker?
One that announces your new arrivals, fills your try-on and workshop slots and brings customers back to your counter. With GoodBarber you put it together yourself, with no code, and it ships as an iPhone, Android and web app: build your store's app.
Can I sell my watches in the app?
No, and that's by design: a watch is tried on and paid for at the counter. GoodBarber does not connect to point-of-sale software, so the app keeps no cart and no stock, and the sale stays at your till. Its job is to bring the customer to you.
How does a customer book a try-on for a specific watch?
From the watch's listing, a link opens the Try-ons section; the customer picks a slot and types the model into the form. The appointment holds your time, not the watch: you set it aside yourself.
Can a customer send a photo of their watch for a quote?
No: the booking form accepts text, a date, a number, a phone number or a link, but no photo. The quote is made in store, with the watch in hand; for that, the customer books a slot in the Workshop section.
Try-ons and workshop: one calendar or two?
Two sections, each with its own hours, slot length and, if you wish, its own Google Calendar. They share the same form, so keep its questions general enough for both, like the brand and the model.
What about appointments made by phone?
Enter them in the Google Calendar you linked to the section: the taken slot closes in the app, and nobody else can book it.
How does the loyalty card work?
At checkout, the customer scans the QR code you print from the back office, and a point is added to their card. You set the number of points and the reward they unlock. The card requires the Authentication extension, so that each customer has an account.
How do I announce a new arrival?
Post the watch in the "New arrivals" section, then send a push notification to all your customers, or only to those in an area drawn on the map, among those who turned on location.
How much should a watch store budget for the app?
Count on Premium with the booking add-on, or on Pro, where booking is built in; the loyalty card and the Chatbot come on top of either plan. The price box gives the amounts in your currency, and each plan is detailed on the pricing page.
