Jeweler with a watchmaker
Hakimi Jewelry Repair
Oakland jeweler with an in-house watchmaker handling vintage watch repair and bracelet sizing, with turnaround of a few days.
Hakimi Jewelry Repair is a jewelry shop on International Blvd in Oakland that also keeps a watchmaker on staff, which means watch work gets handled alongside rings, bracelets and other fine jewelry repairs.
For watches specifically, the shop takes on vintage repair and bracelet sizing. Turnaround on watch jobs runs a few days, so this isn't a same-day fix but also isn't a long wait compared to mail-in services.
No specific watch brands, service tiers, or pricing are listed on the shop's site, so anyone with a particular brand or complication should call ahead and confirm the shop can handle it before dropping off a piece. The general jewelry reviews mention attentive staff and clear communication about costs and timelines, which is a reasonable sign for watch customers too, though none of the public feedback speaks directly to watch repairs.
The shop is open seven days a week except Tuesday, with consistent 10am to 6pm hours the rest of the week, located inside the Durant Marketplace in Oakland's East 14th Street business district.
