Timepiece Excellence Since 1998

Professional clock repair, restoration, and timepiece services. Every tick represents our commitment to preserving the artistry of time.

Crafting Time with Precision

For over two decades, Southgate Jewelers has been the trusted guardian of timepieces throughout Washington State, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques.

Our Heritage

Founded in 1998 by master horologist Thomas Southgate, our workshop began as a small family business with a simple mission: to preserve and restore the intricate beauty of timepieces. What started in a modest Olympia garage has grown into Washington's premier clock and watch restoration service.

Today, our team of certified technicians combines time-honored techniques with cutting-edge tools to service everything from delicate antique pocket watches to sophisticated modern chronographs. Each timepiece that enters our workshop receives the same meticulous attention to detail that has defined our craft for over 25 years.

"Time is the most valuable thing we have, after health. We are honored to be the guardians of your most precious moments."

What Our Clients Say

Trusted by collectors and enthusiasts throughout the Pacific Northwest

"My grandmother's pocket watch had been sitting in a drawer for decades. Southgate Jewelers restored it to working condition while preserving its historical character. The craftsmanship is exceptional, and the staff treated it with the reverence it deserved."

Margaret Chen

Seattle, WA

"Professional, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced. They repaired my vintage Rolex when three other shops said it couldn't be fixed. It's running better now than when I bought it 20 years ago. Highly recommend for any serious timepiece work."

David Rodriguez

Portland, OR

"Outstanding service and attention to detail. They rebuilt the movement in our family grandfather clock with such precision that it's keeping perfect time again. The wood case restoration was also beautiful work. Worth every penny."
