FAQs:
How much do watch batteries cost?
The cost of replacing a standard watch battery typically ranges from $15 to $20.
Luxury and premium watch battery replacements typically range from $25 to $50, while solar-powered batteries that need to be ordered are priced at $75 to $125.
The cost varies based on the type of watch, whether it has a snap-back or screw-back cover, and the method required for installing the battery. Watch battery replacement is done while you wait and usually takes around 5 to 10 minutes, though it may take up to one hour during busy times. Replacing a solar watch battery takes one to two weeks because they need to be ordered. Certain watches have multiple batteries to operate lights and perform additional functions. We charge for each battery, but we will inform you in advance if your watch has multiple batteries before replacing them (this is most common with digital and dual-time watches).
How much do watch bands cost?
We offer a variety of watch bands for you to choose from, with prices ranging from $20 to $80, depending on the material they’re made from (for example, leather or heavy-duty metal bands). On average, a basic leather band replacement costs around $20 to $40 and can usually be completed quickly while you wait. However, ordering a specific out-of-stock color or texture takes about two weeks.
How much does it cost to replace an old or damaged movement in my watch?
Sometimes, changing the battery alone isn’t enough to restore a watch to working order. If an old battery leaks or if water seeps in, it can cause rust and damage the inner workings of the watch. In such cases, it is often more convenient and cost-effective to replace the entire watch movement rather than disassembling and servicing it. The cost of replacing a quartz watch movement varies depending on the specific watch. We offer this service in-house, and it usually takes about one to two weeks to complete. Quartz movement replacement starts at $100.
How much does it cost to replace the glass on my watch?
To change a watch crystal, whether it is made of plastic or glass, the watch must be completely disassembled. The crystal cannot be easily removed from the front, as doing so could damage the watch's face, hands, and dial. The cost of replacing a watch crystal varies based on the watch's size, shape, and material. Typically, replacement prices range from around $75 for a standard watch crystal to $150 or more for OEM (original equipment manufacturer) crystals and higher-quality sapphire crystals. We will provide an estimate after examining the watch.
How much does a watch resizing cost?
Watch resizing is a quick and convenient service specifically for shortening watch bands, typically taking between 10 and 30 minutes to complete, so you can wait while it's done. Certain higher-end watches might require one to two hours for resizing, depending on the complexity of the links. On average, the cost for resizing a regular watch bracelet ranges from $15 to $25. Please note that adding links may not be possible, and if it is, the process will take longer because links need to be special-ordered to fit your watch—typically about one to two weeks.
