Our Story
Craftsmanship, Heritage, and Gold
With decades of experience in metal finishing, precious metal jewellery making, electroplating, and gilding, The Gildsmiths was founded on a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and detail. Today, we bring our refined techniques to the world of timepieces—restoring, enhancing, and transforming beloved watches from renowned brands such as Rolex, Omega, Seiko, Casio, TAG Heuer, Cartier, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Breitling, Tissot, and more. Whether it's subtle restoration or bold gold gilding, each watch is treated with the utmost care and precision. At The Gildsmiths, we don’t just finish surfaces—we honour legacies and elevate design.
Uplift your Timepiece
Whether it’s a watch, pocket watch, or clock, we can uplift your timepiece and restore it to its original glory. Using expert gold plating and meticulous surface finishing techniques, we revive the beauty and character of each piece—honouring its craftsmanship while giving it a new lease of life.
Our Services
At The Gildsmiths, we specialise in high-quality gold plating and polishing services for watches and small metal items. We offer Gold plating in 24k, 18k, 9k, and Rose Gold finishes, providing a durable, brilliant shine tailored to your preferences. Our expert polishing brings out the best in every piece, restoring its original luster with care and precision.
We also offer a disassembly and reassembly service for watches, although we recommend sending items already dismantled to allow for a quicker turnaround time. Whether you're restoring a vintage timepiece or customising a modern one, our attention to detail and commitment to excellence ensures exceptional results every time.
