Antique and Collectible Wrist Watches
Bert Layne Jewelers and Clocks can repair just about any ladies’ and men’s watch. Among them are Elgin, Hamilton, Seth Thomas, Grüen, Waltham, Benrus, Bulova and Omega.
Antique and Collectible Pocket Watches
In addition we can repair pocket watches such as Seth Thomas, Elgin, Rockford, Illinois, Howard and Hampden.
However, we are not locked into those brands. Bring in your watch for evaluation and we will let you know if it can be fixed. You can even mail the watch to us and we will call you with an estimate before starting the repair.
Watch Tips
To maintain your watch, use the following common sense tips.
Lay on a soft cloth when not in use. Never put the watch down on its face.
Rub the watch and band frequently with a soft cloth to keep it from getting dirty.
Keep away from water unless it is a water-resistant/waterproof machine.
Keep it away from magnets. Older watches are especially sensitive to getting magnetized and could stop working entirely until demagnetized.
