Jewelry Repair in San Diego: Quick Answer

We handle repair and restoration for fine jewelry in house. Here is what to expect:

  • Bring the piece in for a free assessment — we will tell you what is involved and what it costs before any work begins.
  • No work starts without your approval of the quoted price and timeline.
  • Common jobs are handled quickly, while restoration and specialist work take longer depending on parts availability.
  • Your item stays secured and insured while it is in our care.
  • We work on high-value pieces, including luxury timepieces and fine jewelry, not just costume items.
  • Repair can be combined with an evaluation if you also want to know what a piece is currently worth.
