FREE WATCH BRACELET ADJUSTMENT
Let us know your size and we'll adjust it before dispatch
FREE WATCH BRACELET ADJUSTMENT
When you purchase from H.S.Johnson we will resize your watch bracelet free of charge before dispatch, all you need to do is measure around your wrist where you ideally want the watch to sit and at the tightness you prefer, best to add around 5mm or 1/4 inch to the measurement to avoid pinching, then just email your size required to braceletadjustment@hsjohnson.com with your order number straight after purchase.
Things to consider........
If you need extra links to make fit there may be a delay in dispatch if these need to be ordered in, they are often free of charge to order but some brands will apply an extra charge for this.
We always include any removed links with your watch purchase.
You can of course get it adjusted locally to make it an exact fit if you are unsure but this will have a cost you would have to cover.

ABOUT US
H.S.Johnson was established in 1946 after the end of the Second World War.
Herbert Samuel Johnson was a watchmaker before the war and his skills were put to use repairing aircraft instruments as an RAF Sergeant in those bleak times of war. Whilst stationed at Fradley he met and married his sweetheart Violet, whose father was the Editor of the Lichfield Mercury, and after wartime had ended they decided to stay local and opened their business in Rugeley ( Pic 1 ) where it still resides online only today.
In the early days when rationing was still in effect the shop consisted of trading from wartime utility tables.
In 1951 Michael Samuel Johnson was born on the premises and would grow up to follow his father into the watchmaking trade. At 14 he started tinkering with clocks and at 16 was working in the shop full time with day releases to college to gain the relevant qualifications. By 21 he had passed his 3 year course at the School of Jewelry and Silversmiths in Birmingham, after which he worked full time in the shop as a watchmaker. He can be seen playing behind his dad's car in the picture from 1957 ( Pic 2 ).
In fact the family has a rich history of watchmaking, Michael is 4th generation and his father 3rd. Before this Herbert's father also called Herbert was a watchmaker in London and Hove, he also taught watchmaking at a London University and during this time built 3 clocks, one of which we still have in the shop, these clocks are totally hand made, every part, truly amazing to see and hear.
It doesn't stop there either, his father, James Johnson, was manager of Pickett's in Oxford Street in London and Michael's great great uncle was William Johnson who was responsible for the repair and maintenance of the clocks at Hampton Court Palace in Victorian Days.
