Speedy Watch

Speedy Watch, operating out of a storefront inside Speedy Gold on Houston St in Laredo, handles full service and overhaul work as well as vintage watch repair. The shop accepts mail-in repairs, so it's an option even if you're not local to Laredo or the Western Division.

Beyond repair and servicing, Speedy Watch also buys, sells, appraises, authenticates and takes watches on consignment, though the repair side is what matters most if your watch needs attention rather than a new owner. No brand specialties or pricing are listed on the site, so it's worth calling or sending photos ahead of a visit to confirm whether your particular watch and the type of repair it needs are something they handle.

Appointments can be booked online through their Calendly link, and the shop keeps the same hours every day of the week, 9am to 6pm, including weekends. That's convenient if you need to drop off or pick up a watch outside a typical weekday repair-shop schedule. For anyone selling rather than repairing, the shop has said box and papers aren't required to get an offer, though that detail applies to the buying side of the business rather than service work.

If you're sending a watch in for a full service or vintage repair, it's a good idea to call ahead at (956) 370-1200 to discuss turnaround time and cost, since neither is posted publicly.
