Jeweler with a watchmaker
Son of a Jeweler
Fremont jewelry store with an in-house watchmaker handling watch repairs alongside its jewelry repair and custom design work.
Son of a Jeweler is a jewelry store on Paseo Padre Parkway in Fremont's Central District that keeps a watchmaker on staff, so watch repairs are handled in-house rather than sent out. The shop lists watch repairs among its core services, alongside jewelry repair, cleaning and inspections, custom design, bridal jewelry and loose diamonds.
No specific watch brands, service types, or pricing are published on the shop's site, so anyone with a particular make or model should call ahead to ask whether it can be handled in-house or needs to be routed elsewhere. The shop describes its service area as the greater San Francisco Bay Area, which suggests it draws customers beyond Fremont itself.
Hours run Monday through Wednesday and Friday through Saturday from 10am to 6pm, with a later close of 7pm on Thursday. The shop is closed Sundays. It can be reached by phone at (510) 462-2058, by email, or through its website, and it maintains a presence on Facebook, Instagram, Yelp, Pinterest and Twitter under the Son of a Jeweler name.
For anyone bringing in a watch, it's worth calling first to confirm the shop's watchmaker can take on the specific job and to get an idea of turnaround, since none of that detail is posted publicly.
