Watch Repair Shop · Cranston & Newport, Rhode Island
Rhode Island’s trusted watch repair store — watch battery, watch glass, bands, and full service from certified watchmakers since 1940.
When you need a watch repair shop, you want certified professionals who understand the precision engineering behind your timepiece — not a mall kiosk that swaps batteries and sends you on your way. Saltzman’s Watches has been that shop since 1940.
We perform a full range of watch repairs in-house at our certified workshop — battery replacement, crystals, movement overhauls, new bands, and full vintage restoration. Most repairs are handled by our own trained watchmakers, and we also offer authorized TAG Heuer and Omega service.
Can’t make it in? We accept mail-in watch repairs from anywhere in the United States. Ship your watch to our service center, receive a written estimate within 5 business days via email, and get it back fully serviced. The same certified expertise — no matter where you are.

A family legacy since 1940. The Providence Watch Hospital was founded by Joseph Saltzman in 1940. Richard took the helm in 1976, and in 2004 he reopened alongside his son Evan as Saltzman’s Watches — now one of New England’s most trusted authorized service centers for watch sales and repair.
