Expert Ring Removal and Repair Services: Your Comfort and Safety First
STEP 1: When you visit Watch Technicians, one of our professionals will begin by examining the ring on your finger to assess the best approach to removing it safely. Your technician will take necessary precautions for your comfort and safety throughout the process, making sure they’re aware of allergies or sensitivities to materials that may need to be noted.
STEP 2: Before moving forward with removal, your technician will discuss potential repair options. It may be suggested that your ring be repaired in its current form or, if necessary, be reshaped or resized after removal. All associated costs, timeframes and an overview of the process will be explained in detail before work begins.


STEP 3: You will be required to sign a consent and liability waiver to show that you understand all that is involved and release technicians from any liability due to the nature of the procedure. Your technician will also isolate the ring, covering adjacent skin with a protective barrier of either adhesive tape or plastic shield, to prevent any accidental injuries.
STEP 4: Your technician will then use techniques that minimize the risk of injury, working slowly and precisely to remove the ring from your finger utilizing specialized cutting tools to carefully cut through the ring material.
STEP 5: The technician will inspect the ring and assess any damage once it is successfully removed. All findings will be discussed with you along with providing recommendations for repair, resizing and any associated costs, including cleaning, stone resetting or replating, as necessary. Once they have your final approval, all repairs will be complete in a timely manner to ensure the ring is restored to its original condition. The jewelers at Watch Technicians use great skill and precision to ensure the highest quality craftsmanship.
Upon completion of all repairs, your technician will reach out to you to collect your ring, go over the repair work and ensure that you are satisfied with their service.
It’s important to remember that all processes explained above are a general outline and may vary due to specific circumstances, type of jewelry and policies for each. Your valuable pieces are invaluable to us as is your business. Thank you for choosing Watch Technicians for all your watch and jewelry needs!
