Citizen Watch Repair - Northridge

Citizen Watch Repair in Northridge

Your Citizen is made to be worn, whether it is an Eco-Drive, quartz, or automatic model. If it starts running slow, stopping, taking moisture, or you are dealing with a cracked crystal or loose bracelet, Turbo Jewelers can help get it back to dependable everyday wear.

We work on common Citizen issues from quick adjustments to deeper movement service, with clear communication and an estimate before any work begins.

How often should a Citizen watch be serviced?

Citizen’s own guidance supports periodic inspection approximately every three to five years for Eco-Drive watches to help maintain performance and water resistance.
Citizen’s warranty guidance also highlights that water resistant models, including Eco-Drive, should be tested and resealed every two to three years.

Even if your watch seems fine, regular inspection can catch worn seals, moisture risk, and early movement issues before they become expensive problems.

What can you do if your Citizen watch stops working?

Start with the simplest, brand-appropriate checks:

• Citizen Eco-Drive: the most common cause is low charge. Citizen recommends exposing the dial to direct sunlight to recharge, and notes charge time varies by model.

• Quartz Citizen: it is often the battery.

• If it took a hit or got wet: avoid forcing the crown or pushers and bring it in, water and impact issues can worsen fast.

If it still is not running correctly after these basics, bring it in for diagnosis so we can identify whether it is a power issue, water-resistance seal issue, crown or stem problem, movement fault, or something else.

What is the cost to repair a Citizen watch?

Citizen watch repair cost depends on the model and what is actually wrong, simple battery service and sizing are very different from a crystal replacement or movement service.

At Turbo Jewelers, we keep it transparent: we inspect your watch first, then provide an estimate before repairs begin, so you can decide with no surprises.
