The Good Stuff
Watch Repairs
A Longines link that could not be fixed in London was repaired here, along with another watch, within three hours.
Apple Watch
One visit covered an Apple Watch display repair, an iPhone 16 Pro Max screen protector and Apple Watch setup help.
Shoe Repairs
Customers mention both a complex shoe fix and shoe cleaning, with one review noting the finished repair's quality.
Detailed Engraving
A trophy plate engraving was described as smooth and precise, with attention to detail throughout the job.
Helpful Extras
The shop has handled passport photos, spare keys and a scan in one visit, making it useful for several small errands.
Small Courtesies
A customer received an AirPod clean and iPhone clean without being charged for those small services.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check Prints. If using the printer, inspect the A4 result before leaving; one review reported mismatched page lengths.
Ask Turnaround. For watch work, ask for the expected completion time; a Longines link and another watch were completed within three hours.
Explain Phone Issues. Describe the phone problem and ask about setup help too; reviews mention repairs, resets and advice that avoided a new purchase.
Bundle Errands. You can combine small jobs in one visit: a customer handled a passport photo, spare keys and a scan together.
Ask About Extras. If you need a small clean alongside a repair, ask whether it can be included; one customer was not charged for AirPod and iPhone cleaning.

The Bottom Line
Minutes is a practical repair and personalisation counter in Golden Mile Galleria, Palm Jumeirah. The reviews make phone and watch work the clearest reasons to consider it: customers describe phones repaired within minutes or on the same day, while a Longines watch link that reportedly could not be fixed in London was repaired here within three hours. Apple Watch support also goes beyond hardware, with one customer receiving help to set the watch up again.
There is useful variety beyond electronics. Reviews mention a complex shoe repair, shoe cleaning, a trophy plate engraved with careful detail, and a single visit covering passport photos, spare keys and a scan. That makes the shop handy when several small jobs need sorting at once.
A customer also said a small AirPod clean and iPhone clean were done without an extra charge, though that should not be treated as a standing price promise. The staff are repeatedly described as approachable, patient and efficient, but there are two cautions. One customer reported paying for a service that was not completed.
Another had a poor printing experience, saying a prepared A4 document came out with one side short and the other long. If printing, check the pages before leaving; for repairs, confirm the work and expected turnaround upfront.
