FOR WATCH & JEWELRY REPAIR SHOPS

Watch and jewelry repair tracking, from drop-off to pickup

Battery swaps, full services, ring sizing and chain repairs. Record each piece's condition at drop-off, send estimates customers approve online, and keep every service date on the customer's history.

Sound familiar?

A customer says the scratch on the bezel wasn't there when they dropped it off
A service waits weeks for parts and nobody remembers to update the customer
You can't tell when a watch was last serviced or had its battery changed

How one watch and jewelry repair flows

An example of a watch and jewelry repair in Repair Karte (the customer and item are made up). The plan for each step is written under it; see pricing.

  1. 1Check-in

    Check in the watch (mechanical) for “losing time”

    Pick the item type and the usual work in a tap, write the symptom, and print a claim tag (PDF on Letter or A4). The customer signs on screen.

    Plan: All plans (Free: up to 100 repairs a month) · QR code on the claim tag: Standard and up

  2. 2Estimate

    Send a $280.00 estimate for “full service (clean, oil, gaskets)”

    The customer approves it on the repair's status page. On Standard and Pro the estimate is emailed automatically, and a reminder goes out if they haven't answered (after 5 days to start).

    Plan: Approval on the status page: all plans · Automatic email and reminders: Standard and up

  3. 3In repair

    Add “Waiting for parts (gaskets ordered)” to the timeline

    The customer can check progress on the repair's status page anytime (from the QR code on their claim tag, or by looking up their phone number). When the parts arrive, move the status on.

    Plan: Status page: all plans · QR code on the claim tag: Standard and up

  4. 4Ready

    Mark it complete, and the customer is told

    A ready-for-pickup email goes out with a link to the status page, where the customer can book a pickup time and pay by card before coming in.

    Plan: Email: Standard and up · Card payment (Stripe): Standard and up · Pickup booking: Pro

  5. 5Pickup

    Hand it over and record the payment

    Record how it was paid (deposits are subtracted automatically). The repair stays on Emily's history, and on the item's history by serial number.

Repair report
We found worn parts from dried oil, which caused the watch to lose time. We cleaned and oiled the movement and replaced the gaskets. We recommend a service every 3 to 4 years.

Questions from watch & jewelry repair shops

How do I record a watch's condition at drop-off?

Write it in the repair details (for example, scratch on the crystal, two links removed) and take the customer's signature on screen. Both stay on the record and show at pickup. On Pro you can add photos and draw on them.

Can I see when a customer's watch was last serviced?

Yes. Every repair stays on the customer's history by phone number, and with serial numbers turned on you can see the history of the watch itself.

Can customers approve a service estimate online?

Yes, on every plan: the customer approves the estimate on the repair's status page. On Free you send them the link; on Standard and Pro the estimate is emailed automatically and the claim tag has a QR code to the page.
