Watch Repair
Bring in the watch that stopped last week, or the one that has rested in a drawer since your grandfather wore it. Battery replacement, band sizing, crystals and movement service at 7 Brownlee Jewelers locations, always with a free estimate first.
Battery Replacement
Fitted, closed and checked, so the case seals as it did the day you bought it.
Band Sizing and Links
A bracelet that slides past your wrist bone, set right in minutes. Pins, clasps and straps as well.
Crystal Replacement
Scratches and cracks gone, with a new crystal fitted to your case.
Stem and Crown
For the crown that spins, sticks or no longer sets the time.
Movement Service
Quartz movements repaired or replaced. Automatics cleaned, oiled and regulated until they keep time again.
Pressure Testing
Water resistance checked before the watch goes back on your wrist.
Watch Battery Replacement
How Do You Know Your Watch Needs a New Battery?
The second hand tells you first. It begins to jump, four or five seconds at a time, and then one morning it stops.
Most quartz batteries last two to three years. Left too long, an old cell can leak onto the movement, and a small errand becomes a real repair. Watch battery replacement takes a few minutes at the counter on most watches, so you can wait or browse the cases while we work.
How Does Watch Repair Work at Brownlee Jewelers?
Step 1 - Bring It In
Walk into any of our 7 locations. No appointment needed.
Step 2 - A Look Inside
We open the case and check the movement, crystal, crown and gaskets under the loupe. Then you hear exactly what we found.
Step 3 - Free Estimate
The cost and the timeline, before a single tool touches it.
Step 4 - Your Approval
Nothing starts until you say yes.
Step 5 - The Repair
Batteries and links are quick. Movement work and ordered parts take longer, and you will know how long up front.
Step 6 - Pickup
We call or text when it is ticking again.
Has Your Watch Stopped?
Bring it to the nearest Brownlee Jewelers. You will know what it needs, and what it costs, before we open the back.
