Many people are wearing kinetic or solar powered watches. These watches were represented to them as never needing to have the battery replaced. While that may be true for some people, it is not always the case in every situation. Even watches of this kind will eventually need service to keep running. Some of the many watches that may fall into this category are:

Seiko Kinetics

Seiko Solar

Citizens Eco-Drive

Bulova

While it is true that you will not need to annually replace the battery in a kinetic or solar powered watch. Eventually these batteries will lose the ability to store power. The capacitors can also wear out and stop charging the batteries. These are two things that can commonly happen after 7-10 years of use or if the watch has been in storage for some time. If you have a kinetic or solar powered watch that has stopped working, stop into Amoskeag Jewelers today. Our helpful professional team can replace both watch batteries and capacitors to keep your watch running smoothly.

As the years go by many people do not notice the wedding ring they wear every day, is starting to get a little too tight.

With a couple of simple tools your ring can be safely removed. Then a simple resizing will make sure that it fits properly again.
