Get into the Spirit of Giving!
Sleigh bells ring, are ya listenin’? If you’re kicking off gifting season by checking your list (twice!), we’re here to make sure you get everything you need for the holidays. These are all the important dates to know if you want to get your jewelry repairs done on time this year.
Have Your Presents Prepared
Not all jewelry and watch repairs take the same amount of time*, and we want to make sure your holiday items are ready before our offices close from December 23, 2022 to January 03, 2023. Be sure to drop off your package at FedEx** by the dates below so that you can get your items back by the holidays.
Please note that any orders that include gold plating, watch repairs, enamel repair, appraisals, or stone replacement must be placed by Black Friday (11/25/2022) to guarantee enough time to complete them before the holidays.
We highly recommend selecting Priority Overnight shipping at checkout, as this will ensure that we can receive, repair, and return your completed items to you as quickly as possible.

*Please note that repair times may vary depending on the item once we receive and evaluate it in our facility. Factors such as extent of damage, sourcing time for components, and metal type may extend the repair time beyond the expected completion date.
**FedEx will be open on Black Friday; please check your local FedEx facility or drop box to see holiday schedules.
***Stone replacements for melee diamonds and cubic zirconia can be done the same day. Please expect colored stones and large diamonds to take at least two weeks depending on the size, type, and the cutting labor required.
There’s nothing quite as fun as giving the perfect gift (well, maybe besides getting the perfect gift). Check repairs off your holiday list and let us get started on your jewelry! Any questions? Feel free to leave a comment below or send us a custom repair request.
