Star Mobiles & Watches

If you find yourself in Madivala, you might have walked past Star Mobiles & Watches. We are right in the middle of all the noise and traffic that Madivala is known for. It is a small shop, but we pack a lot into the display cases. We have different kinds of watches, from the simple ones with needles to the digital ones that kids seem to like these days. Then there are the mobile phones and all the accessories that go with them, like chargers and those colorful plastic covers. We spend a lot of time changing watch batteries or putting new straps on for people who have had their favorite watch for years. It is funny how people get attached to a specific watch. The street outside is always busy with buses and people rushing to the market. Inside, we try to keep things a bit more orderly. It is mostly just us behind the counter, talking to customers and showing them what we have in stock. We don't have any big signs or loud music to bring people in. People just know we are here in Madivala when they need a quick fix for their phone or a new battery for their clock. It gets hot in the afternoons, so we usually have the door wide open to catch whatever breeze comes through. It is just a basic shop doing what it does every day since we first opened the doors to the neighborhood.
