Premier Watch Strap Replacement Services
What’s a wristwatch without its watch band to actually strap your timepiece to your wrist?
Just replacing a worn watch band can make your watch look like new. For a current watch style, we are usually able to replace it with an original band ordered from the watch manufacturer. If an original is not available, we can replace it with a similar band to make your timepiece look spectacular again!
Leather, Rubber, Silicon, or Nylon Watch Band Replacements
There are many different types of watch strap material that your watch band could be made of. We’re able to source out and professionally replace your watch strap with materials of leather, rubber, silicon, or nylon of your choosing.
Although we can source any type of watch band for your strap replacement service, we cannot ship the replacement strap directly to you. Instead, we will ship your timepiece back to you with the new band already installed.
Our WOSTEP-Watchmakers set the standard and have many other certifications to professionally refinish your timepiece’s strap.
Services regarding any type of watch restoration require experience and expert skill. At My Jewelry Repair, our team of Master Craftsmen have over 20 years of experience bringing timepieces back to their former glory, no matter how simple or complicated your timepiece may be.
Other Certifications Include:

Sent my automatic watch to these folks for repair as it was no longer keeping accurate time, they assessed the watch for needed repairs and sent me the estimate which I approved.
About three weeks later I received a email stating that my watch had shipped, they provide a tracking number that I might keep a track of it, upon receiving the watch I inspected it and have to say that they did a beautiful job on the exterior cleaning and polish plus they replaced the clasp, I can only assume that the work done to the movement is of equal quality and detail this will be born out over time as I see how the accuracy is.
They also provided the pressure test ticket in the return package.
I would recommend this company if you have need of jewelry repair.

This particular work order took over a year to fully complete, with the watch being sent back three times for all the work to be done properly. I do understand that this was harder project given that it’s a vintage Russian movement, but I can’t tell you enough how much it meant that you searched all over Russia/Ukraine for the parts needed to complete the work. The watch is running absolutely amazing and can’t believe how good it is running. It’s truly a centerpiece to my vintage watch collection and I absolutely love it. Thanks again for all the hard work and time you put into it and that’s what prompted this message. I do believe in acknowledging hard work and this is truly wonderful. Thank you again and keep up the good work.
