Michele R.

Watchmaker Ira Goldstein is one of a rare and dwindling breed of skilled craftsmen trained at the American Watchmakers Institute (Ohio) who can both repair and do complete restoration on watches from antique to modern. At his shop, which has recently moved from its' former location near the police station to the little collection of shops at Jackson Square, he also stocks batteries not only for all watches but also for car remotes. Ira can replace anything on watches, like crystals which may have been scratched, and crowns and stems. He also has a great selection of vintage and newer watches for sale in his shop and I learned he buys old and new watches, working or not. Added bonus is that he is such a nice man and the shop has a sort of "ahh..." zen about just being in it. I was in recently to have him look at the metal band on a Bulova watch that is going on probably 40 years old and had been a gift from my dad to my mom and then she to me and for which the clasp was no longer working. Ira looked it over carefully and gave me the diagnosis of showing how the clasp end had split, not evident to the naked eye. He also showed me how the clasp on this watch is integrated with the band so the entire band, not just the clasp, would need to be replaced and how band is integrated with the watch itself so for this generation of Bulova the repair will need to include ordering the exact band Bulova used for this watch. Since he is not a licensed Bulova dealer, Ira can't order parts from Bulova but he referred me to a jeweler / Bulova dealer who will be able to to let me know if Bulova even has that band available any longer and if so who can order it to make repair. This is going to be expensive and so I likely will tuck this watch away for sentiments sake or find someone to give it to who wants to have it repaired and invest in a new watch given I am one of those people who likes wearing a watch for checking the time (I know, I know...it is more in synch with the era in which we live to look at one's phone but...) and also at an age where a bigger face dial than on this one makes seeing it easier. I plan on including the watches in Ira's shop as options as I look around. NEIGHBORS: Jackson Square is also home to Bella Biscotteria, a great little Italian bakery, open Thurs - Sun from about 9a to 3p so if you time your visit to Ira's shop with the bakery being open you can pick up goodies to go. It is also home to State Farm Insurance agent, Chelsea Stutzman, who we highly recommend. PARKING: Jackson Square was a dump of a location until maybe 2 years ago and whether new owners or not, it has been updated and improved a lot since for stores and facades. But the parking lot is a mess of being poorly designed with too small and too few angled spaces and it seems not fixable. Be aware of this as you enter and exit. ACCESSIBILITY: There is only one ADA spot and it is impossible for a wheelchair user (which is me these days) to park and get out of their vehicle anywhere in the lot except for using this spot as it has the only curb cut access to the sidewalk. As luck would have it, it is right outside Ira's shop. His shop is level in, all on one level and with accessible height counters.
