Keepsakes Jewelry & Watch Repair

Family-owned Omaha jeweler with an on-site watchmaker handling battery swaps, full movement service and overhaul, and bracelet sizing.

Keepsakes Jewelry & Watch Repair is a family-owned jewelry store in West Omaha's Shops of Legacy that keeps watch repair in-house rather than sending it out. An on-site watchmaker handles the bench work, so a dead battery, a stretched bracelet that needs links removed, or a mechanical watch due for a full service and overhaul can all be dealt with under one roof.

The shop's broader trade is jewelry repair, ring sizing, engraving, stone replacement, rhodium plating, and restringing, with watch work sitting alongside that as a core service rather than an afterthought. No specific brand authorizations are listed, so if your watch is under a manufacturer warranty or you want brand-specific parts, it's worth calling ahead to confirm they can service it.

No pricing or turnaround times are published, so battery replacement, sizing, and overhaul costs and timelines are best confirmed with the shop directly when you bring the watch in. The store is open Monday through Friday during standard business hours and for a shorter stretch on Saturday, with Sundays closed.

Finding the storefront can be slightly tricky: it sits between Snooze and Salon Z in the Shops of Legacy, and if GPS routes you to the back of the building, you'll need to walk around to the side facing Verizon. A phone call before visiting is a reasonable way to check current hours and whether a walk-in battery swap can be done same-day.

Yes, full service and overhaul is one of their listed watch repair categories, performed on-site rather than outsourced.
Can they resize a metal watch bracelet?
Bracelet sizing is offered in-house, so links can be added or removed on the spot or during your visit.

They're open 10:00 am to 5:30 pm Monday through Friday and 10:00 am to 2:00 pm on Saturday, with no Sunday hours.

It's in the Shops of Legacy at 16950 Wright Plaza #115, between Snooze and Salon Z; if GPS takes you to the rear of the building, walk around to the storefront facing Verizon.
