Capital City Coins & Jewelry

Monona jewelry and coin shop near Madison offering watch battery replacement, bracelet sizing, and repairs for Luminox, Skagen, Bulova, and Citizen.

Capital City Coins & Jewelry is a family-run coin and jewelry store on Monona Drive, just off the Beltline in the Madison area. Alongside its coin and jewelry trade, the shop handles watch work, including battery replacements and bracelet sizing.

The shop services Luminox, Skagen, Bulova, and Citizen watches, so it's a reasonable stop if your piece is one of those brands and needs a new battery, a resized bracelet, or general repair. It also does broader jewelry repair and cleaning, and offers free estimates on watch and jewelry work.

This isn't a dedicated watchmaker's bench operation; it's a jeweler with watchmaking services on hand, run by the Hermanson family since 1977. That long run in the same location, just off Highway 12/18, makes it a familiar option for Madison-area residents who also buy or sell coins, gold, silver, or estate jewelry while they're there.

Hours run Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm, and Saturday 9am to 2pm; closed Sundays. For anything outside the four brands listed, it's worth calling ahead to confirm they can take on the job before dropping off a watch.
