Fankhauser Jewelry

A craftsman’s skill and a collector’s passion goes into all of our work. As a WOSTEP certified watchmaker, Chris can repair almost any timepiece. He understands the mechanics, components, materials, and the aesthetics that go into making a fine watch. He also has a unique passion and respect for the history of watchmaking as well as the curiosity that keeps him learning about new innovations and designs. Chris uses his skill to diagnose problems and recommend the necessary services. He will also discuss the proper maintenance for your timepiece to ensure its long life. We also take care of clients’ needs in cleaning, sizing and repair for all types of jewelry. We have exclusive arrangements with Sholt Jewelry Designs and are proud to offer the unique style of Ithil Metal Works for personal, and elegant gift ideas and engagement rings.
