Gaston Jewelers is a family-owned jewelry store in the Deer Valley area of Glendale, Arizona, operating since 1956. Alongside its jewelry and ring work, the shop handles watch battery replacement and bracelet sizing in-house with a watchmaker on staff.

The battery service comes with an unusual deal: bring in two cans of food for St. Vincent de Paul and the first battery is free, with each additional one priced at $5. Given the response to the promotion, the shop notes it may not always be able to swap a battery while a customer waits, and some watches may cost extra. Mentioning the code word GASTON is required to get the deal, and it's worth calling ahead to confirm availability before dropping in.

Beyond watches, Gaston Jewelers does chain repair and ring sizing, and has a certified appraiser in the store on the last Tuesday of each month. The shop is open Tuesday through Friday from 10am to 5:30pm and Saturday from 10am to 4pm, closed Sunday and Monday.

This is a general jewelry store rather than a specialist watch repair shop, so anyone with a more involved mechanical repair or a brand-specific service question should call first to check whether the in-house watchmaker can take it on.

Services

  • Battery replacement from $5
  • Bracelet sizing
