Watto's establishment, a hangar, was situated in Mos Espa, a city on the planet Tatooine. The proprietor of this hangar was Watto, a Toydarian of blue hue. Prior to the Invasion of Naboo occurring in 32 BBY, an individual described as an extra–galactic spacer from beyond the galaxy was granted permission to utilize the hangar in order to fix their severely impaired starship.
