Jeweler with a watchmaker

Homsy Jewelers

Family-owned jeweler in Boston's Jewelers Building with an on-site watchmaker doing full servicing, battery swaps and bracelet sizing on Rolex, Omega, Tudor

Homsy Jewelers is primarily a jewelry store, but it keeps an on-site watchmaker who handles full servicing and overhaul, battery replacement, and bracelet sizing for a defined list of brands: Rolex, Omega, Tudor, TAG Heuer, Breitling, Cartier and Seiko.

The shop says it is an authorized service center for all of those brands, which would mean work stays within manufacturer guidelines, but that's the shop's own claim and worth confirming when you book. For anything outside that brand list, it's best to call ahead and ask whether their watchmaker can take it on.

The business has been at 333 Washington Street in the Jewelers Building in Downtown Boston since 1986 and is now run by the third generation of the same family. Jewelry work like ring sizing, stone setting, engraving and appraisals happens alongside the watch services, so it functions as a one-stop counter rather than a dedicated watch specialist.

Hours run Monday through Friday 10am to 5pm and Saturday 10am to 4pm, closed Sundays. No specific turnaround times or service prices are listed, so those are worth asking about directly when you bring in a watch.
