Antique and Modern Pocket Watch Repair

Is your beloved pocket watch, an heirloom from a bygone era, sitting unused in a drawer, gathering dust? At Sangamon Watches Repair Center, we specialize in breathing new life into these treasured antique, vintage, and modern timepieces. Our expert watchmakers are here to restore your pocket watch’s functionality, beauty, and elegance with unmatched care and precision.

Whether your pocket watch was passed down through generations or a unique addition to your collection, we understand the sentimental and historical value behind each timepiece. From simple repairs to full mechanical overhauls, we treat your pocket watch with the same level of care and expertise that we would for our own.

Our Pocket Watch Repair Services Include:

  • Complete Movement Overhaul
    Pocket watches, especially those with mechanical movements, require regular maintenance to keep ticking reliably. Our complete overhaul service involves disassembling the entire movement, cleaning each component, replacing worn parts, lubricating the movement, and reassembling the watch. This service restores your pocket watch’s accuracy and prolongs its life.

  • Movement Repair & Adjustment
    If your pocket watch is losing time or has stopped working, we offer specialized movement repairs and adjustments to bring it back to peak performance. Whether it's a minor adjustment or a complete repair of the movement’s intricate gears, our skilled watchmakers have the expertise to handle all types of complications.

  • Crystal Replacement
    Scratched or cracked crystals can obscure the beauty of your pocket watch and leave it vulnerable to damage. We provide high-quality crystal replacements that match the original design, offering protection and restoring your watch’s visual appeal.

No matter the brand or model, we have the expertise to handle even the most complex repairs and restorations.
