JRS Jewelry Repair Shop

JRS is primarily a jewelry and gold-buying shop in West Allis that also handles basic watch repair work. On the watch side, the shop does battery replacements starting at $10, with same-day service mentioned, along with crystal replacement, bracelet sizing, and case and bracelet polishing.

This is a general jeweler with a watchmaker rather than a dedicated watch specialist, so it's a fit for routine maintenance — a dead battery, a scratched crystal, a bracelet that needs a link removed or added, or a case that's lost its shine — rather than movement servicing or mechanical repairs. The site states the shop works on all brands for battery replacement, but doesn't list specific brands serviced for the other watch work, so it's worth calling ahead if you have a less common brand or an unusual case.

Hours are limited and split in places: Monday, Wednesday and Thursday run midday into early evening, Friday has a midday block and a separate late-afternoon block, and Saturday is a short window in the mid-afternoon. The shop is closed Sundays. Appointments are preferred, though walk-ins are accepted; given the narrow hours, calling ahead is the safer bet to avoid a wasted trip.

The shop has been operating in Milwaukee since 2013, primarily built around buying gold, silver, diamonds, and gift cards, with jewelry repair as a parallel service. Watch repair appears to be a smaller, add-on part of the business rather than its main focus.
