Watch bands Sized
Just got that new watch and the watch band is way too big. No problem. We have the experts and the proper tools to shorten that watch band to fit exactly the way you want it, usually in about 15 minutes. We can even lengthen some watch bands and our professional jewelers can shorten, lengthen, and repair solid gold watch bands.
Watch band Repairs
Whether it's the buckle or clasp that won't stay closed or a watch band that won't stay on the watch, there are very few watch bands we are not able to repair. We can also order many original replacement bands and parts including brand names such as Seiko, Citizen, Movado, Bulova, Kenneth Cole, and many, many more.     Â
Large Selection Of Watch bands
We have a very large selection of leather watch straps and metal watch bands in stock to fit just about any watch and just about any wrist. We carry sizes as small as 8 mm and as wide as 28 mm. We have extra long leather straps and can order extra small ones. We stock straps in genuine leather, exotic skins such as lizard, crocodile, and alligator, metal watch bands in yellow, white, or two-tone, sports straps, Casio replacement bands, nylon straps, and much, much more.   Â
Stems & Crowns
A very common repair is the replacement of the stem and crown. The crown protrudes and can be easily knocked off and there is a lot of wear and tear from years of setting the time, day, or date. Our expert watchmaker will match your existing stem and crown with the manufacturer's specified parts and return your watch to proper order. Please allow approximately 4 weeks for this repair.
Crystals
Glass crystals, plastic crystals, sapphire crystals, round ones, square ones, oval ones, and faceted ones too, flat or domed, with or without the magnifier, we can replace just about any watch crystal there is.
Most flat round crystals can be replaced While You Wait or Shop. All other crystals will take approximately 4 weeks to replace
Restore / Refurbish
Would you like to have that old, worn-out watch look like new again? We have the expertise to restore and refurbish almost any make or model of watch, no matter how old it is. Rust can be removed, crystals can be replaced, dials can be refinished, and parts can be ordered or, in some cases, made by hand.
Complete Servicing
Complete servicing generally refers to "returning a watch to proper running order", whether that watch is gaining time, losing time, or has stopped altogether. What type of servicing is required and how much the servicing will cost depends on what kind of watch you have. In the broadest sense, there are two main categories of watches: mechanical watches and quartz watches.
Mechanical Watches
A mechanical watch generally has no battery and is either a watch that you have to wind or an automatic watch that winds itself as you wear it. To return these watches to proper running order normally requires a COA or Clean Oil and Adjust. The watchmaker disassembles the watch, cleans the parts, oils them, reassembles the watch, and adjusts the timing, so the watch will once again run properly. Occasionally, there are parts, especially in older watches, that need replacing and will require more than a COA to return it to proper running order.       Â
Quartz Matches
When a new battery does not return your quartz watch to proper running order, then that watch needs servicing. However, in most cases, a COA is not appropriate because many quartz movements contain plastics, making proper cleaning nearly impossible. Most other watchmakers resort to just blowing the movements out with air, attempting to dislodge any minute particles of dust that stopped the watch from running. The problem with this shortcut is that many times the dust particles are just blown somewhere else in the movement, resulting in many returns to the repair shop.
To solve this problem, we at CNS Jewelry & Watch Repair have decided generally not to clean quartz movements, but to replace the old movement with a brand-new manufacturer's specified movement, ordering only from the best and most reputable suppliers in the country. And the best part is, we can do this for a lower price than most other places charge for a COA.  And because we are installing a brand-new movement, we can warranty the repair for 1 year, whereas most others only offer a 90-day guarantee.
We also service pocket watches and self-charging watches such as Seiko Kinetics and Citizen Eco-drices.
Please allow approximately 4 weeks for the servicing of watches.
