Jeweler with a watchmaker
Filigree Jewelers
Minneapolis jeweler with an on-site watchmaker handling Rolex and Cartier repairs, full overhauls, and vintage watch work.
Filigree Jewelers is a jewelry store in downtown Minneapolis that also runs a watchmaker's bench, taking on full service and overhaul work alongside its jewelry business. The shop lists Rolex and Cartier watch repair among its services, and it says it is an authorized service center for both brands, though that claim comes from the shop itself and isn't independently verified.
Beyond those two names, the bench also handles vintage watch repair, which tends to involve movements and parts that newer shops won't touch. Combined with the overhaul and full-service category listed for the shop, this points to a setup built for mechanical work rather than quick battery swaps or strap changes alone.
Pricing here sits at the higher end for the area, which tracks with a jeweler-watchmaker hybrid working on brands like Rolex and Cartier rather than a volume repair counter. No specific turnaround times or price lists are published, so those are worth confirming directly.
The shop is on N 2nd St in Central Minneapolis and is closed Sundays and Mondays, open Tuesday through Friday from 11am to 6pm and Saturday from 11am to 5pm. Call ahead at (612) 486-2290 to check on drop-off requirements or current wait times for a service.
