Momentum

Momentum is located at 35 Raja Ram Mohan Roy Sarani, which most people know as M G Road. We are right opposite the Purabi Cinema. It’s a good landmark because everyone knows where the cinema is. The road outside is one of the main veins of the city, so there is never a dull moment. You can hear the trams and the buses going by all day long. Our shop has a simple front and we’ve been here for a good while. Inside, it’s a mix of different things, but watches are the main focus. We have a counter where we sit and look at whatever needs fixing. The name Momentum fits because things always seem to be moving around here. We get a lot of people stopping in while they wait for a show at the cinema or while they are waiting for a bus. It’s a convenient spot for them to get a quick repair done. We don’t have any big corporate rules, we just treat people fairly and do the work that’s needed. Sometimes we have old clocks that take up a lot of room while we wait for parts to arrive. The shop feels lived-in and comfortable. We know the other shopkeepers on this block and we all look out for each other. It’s a traditional way of doing business in a city that’s constantly changing around us. We keep our doors open and see who the day brings in.
