Gold Chain & Bracelet Repairs
Don't Let a Broken Chain Stay in Your Jewellery Box
A broken necklace or bracelet doesn't necessarily mean the end of a favourite piece. From delicate chains to heavier gold bracelets, we can assess the damage and recommend suitable repair options.
Our services include:
Repairing broken gold and silver chains
Soldering damaged links
Replacing clasps and jump rings
Repairing necklace and bracelet connections
Checking worn links and weak points
Adjusting chain and bracelet lengths where possible
Cleaning and polishing
Our in-house repair workshop allows us to work with a wide range of jewellery styles, including delicate and sentimental pieces.
What to bring: Bring the entire chain or bracelet, including any broken links, clasps, or loose pieces. If your chain broke while holding a pendant, bring the pendant as well so we can check the connection.

Diamond & Gemstone Setting
Protect the Stones That Mean the Most
A loose diamond or gemstone should never be ignored. Worn claws, damaged settings, and everyday wear can put valuable and sentimental stones at risk.
Our gemstone services include:
Checking and tightening loose stones
Repairing and replacing worn claws (prongs)
Replacing missing diamonds and gemstones
Resetting stones into existing jewellery
Setting gemstones into new jewellery designs
Assessing worn or damaged settings
Our team can examine your jewellery and explain whether the existing setting can be repaired or whether a replacement setting would offer better protection.
What to bring: Bring the jewellery and any loose stones you still have. If available, include gemstone certificates, previous appraisals, or photographs showing how the jewellery looked before it was damaged.
Important: If a stone is noticeably loose, avoid wearing the jewellery until it has been inspected.

Watch Batteries & Watch Services
Keep Your Watch Running Reliably
Whether your watch has stopped running, needs a new battery, or requires additional attention, Barthau Jewellers can help assess its servicing needs.
Watch services include:
Watch battery replacement
Watch band and strap replacement
Watch bracelet adjustments
Watch servicing and repair inquiries
Assessment of watches that have stopped working
Not every watch requires the same service. Some watches need specialized handling, and water resistance may require additional testing after the case is opened.
What to bring: Bring the complete watch, including any loose bracelet links or replacement parts you have. If the watch has been exposed to water, has visible damage, or has recently stopped working, let us know.
