As an avid timepiece collector in a small town, I found it frustrating to find where to get watch repair near me. I realized the lack of information sources online and decided to set up this site to help other watch enthusiasts out.
For the average watch owner it may not occur to you to visit a jewelry store and for a timepiece collector you may not be aware that there actually watch repair specialists near you. These places can provide services that extend from battery replacement to complete overhaul and watch restoration. What you will learn on this site though is how an unauthorized repair is different then an authorized one. Your decision may have a major impact on your warranty coverage.
As a lover of timepieces I have earned a certain respect for the wrist accessories and the people who work on them. I do not work on them myself no matter how easy the issue may look. Tinkering with your watch can sometime do more damage and cost you more money in the long run. Once you open your watch yourself you run the risk or breaking the mechanics, getting dust in it, and voiding the warranty.
My best advice is to let the pros do their jobs and do all your intricate watch work for you. Your only responsibility as a watch owner are to keep it clean, running, and in good condition. If you want to preserve it then you should also be mindful of where you wear it. Don’t play tennis with it on or fix your car. You should follow the manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule, clean your watch routinely, and change your battery every 1 to 3 years. All of these basics will keep your watch in great shape for years and possibly beyond your years.
If you respect your watch it will take care of you for a long time.
