Careful hands for valuable pieces
Jewelry and watch repair is as much about trust as skill, because the items are small, valuable, and often sentimental. The whole point of doing it through Domesty is verified providers, reviews you can read, and money you don't release until the piece is safely back.
The everyday jobs are quick and affordable: watch batteries, strap and link adjustments, ring resizing, and clasp or catch repairs. Most are same-day and don't need the piece to be away for long.
More involved work includes soldering broken gold chains, resetting loose or lost stones, replacing watch crystals, and servicing mechanical or automatic movements. Precious-metal and stone work should always be quoted after a proper look.
For anything valuable, agree how the item is handled, whether it's insured while in their care, and confirm the metal purity and any stones before and after. Escrow means you only pay once you've inspected the finished piece yourself.
