Jeweler with a watchmaker

Fast Fix Jewelry and Watch Repairs

Uptown Albuquerque jeweler with an on-site watchmaker offering battery swaps, full service and crystal or bracelet work on Rolex, Omega, Tudor and more.

Fast Fix Jewelry and Watch Repairs sits in the Coronado Center area of Uptown Albuquerque and keeps a watchmaker on site rather than shipping work out. That means battery replacements, crystal swaps and bracelet sizing can often be handled the same day, alongside full services and overhauls for more involved jobs.

The shop lists work on Rolex, Omega, Tudor, TAG Heuer, Breitling, Cartier and Seiko, and its services extend to vintage pieces as well as current models. Beyond movement work, they also do case and bracelet polishing and pressure (water resistance) testing, which covers most of what a watch owner would need outside of a dive into a specific rare caliber.

As a jeweler with a watchmaker rather than a dedicated watch-only shop, Fast Fix also handles jewelry repair, custom design and engraving under the same roof, so it's a practical stop if you've got both a watch and a ring that need attention. Hours run late most days, open until 8pm Monday through Saturday and 6pm on Sunday, which gives more flexibility than many standalone watch repair counters for dropping something off after work.
