Watch Repair

Recently the increase in quartz watch repair has been staggering. Watch battery replacements and watch
band adjustments top the list of most requested watch servicing ,and most time these services can be
handled in the shop while the customer waits.

Watch crystal replacement on the other hand is a little more time consuming and usually the watch must
be left for this task.

Some quartz watches will run smoother with a little cleaning sometimes the movement must be replaced to
bring a favorite watch back to life.

Leather watch bands are available to be ordered in many sizes and colors and come in many exotic
reptile and animal skins. Metal,cloth and Pvc(plastic) watch bands are also available. We have winders available for automatic watches that make great gifts for the holiday, and a line of watches that are available to order that are hard to beat.

Watch repair is hard to find. Lets us see if we can help you with your watch needs.

Jewelry Repair Pueblo Colorado

Jewelry repair for Silver Jewelry can be very tricky and many shops in the Pueblo Colorado area do not have trained Silversmiths and will not work on silver jewelry.  Silver jewelry takes more work than Gold jewelry to repair because in most cases stones need to be removed before the repair. Traditional heat sink methods used by Goldsmiths many times will not work with silver and can possibly damage or destroy the stones set in the jewelry.  Silver jewelry also takes more heat for traditional soldering techniques, and of course the bigger the piece the more heat that is necessary. Some repairs can be done in our shop by heatless methods without removing the stones such as earring posts.  At Skystone and Silver we evaluate every job with you to determine the possibility of success or failure based on the desired jewelry repair. At Skystone and Silver we do both Silver and Gold jewelry repairs.

Peace Sign Jewelry

On March 18, 2003, Lynn Yaeger, of the Village Voice In New York City, included Skystone and Silver’s Peace Sign Jewelry to be ranked among the top online sectors selling Peace Sign goods during the start of the war.

The article entitled “Peace Goods No Blood for Oil, and Other Fashion Statements” went on to say:

The fabulous surge of power and solidarity you feel when you attend a peace demonstration begins way before you get to the rally: It starts the minute you board the subway and see so many other people demo-bound too. There is nothing like the thrill of collective action, but if you’re not wearing a symbol or a slogan somewhere on your body, how will everyone know you’re headed to the same place they are?

After all, the function of clothes isn’t merely to keep you covered and warm—it’s also to tell the world, before you even speak, what crowd you run with. In a season when more and more citizens are taking to the streets, many for the first time, we searched the Internet for peace-themed merchandise, assuming that since the Web has been instrumental in building the movement so quickly, it would probably also offer a wide assortment of anti-war accessories.

The good news is, there is no lack of left-leaning merchandise online. The bad news? Most of the slogans and symbols have taken up residence on the T-shirt, an item whose ubiquity has rendered it, at least in fashion terms, more than a little boring.

Of course, there are people who wouldn’t be caught dead with a patch but who nevertheless want the world to know which side they’re on. (If it’s truly a mass movement, there ought to be at least a few Dior coats and Manolos in the crowd.) For these types, we recommend http://skystoneandsilver.com, a site that offers sterling silver peace sign pendant, rings, lapel pins, and for capitalists against the war, even a money clip.

These peace sign items are still as popular as ever and I am enjoying shipping them all over the world! Feel free to take a look at my designs and let me know what you think
