Testimonials:

Wade is reliable, honest, creative, and a rock star at what he does! I would never bring a repair to anyone else. If he can’t fix/repair it, it can’t be done – Beth J.P., South Hadley

Jewelry & Watch EMT is an AMAZING local business! Wade really will come to your house OR, as in my case, your place of work. What an efficient use of my time and his. He’s extremely knowledgeable, professional and his prices are very reasonable. Those who know me know that last quality is important to me! Being able to go online and set up an appointment for when he’s next available is also very convenient. You won’t be disappointed. Patrick H., Belchertown

Wade is the best, I just had a couple of necklaces fixed one I would’ve just sold and not even bothered fixing, Wade fixed it and it’s good as new now. It was great to see him back in the business as I know I have someone I know well & trust. – Sharon C.R., Westfield

I just want thank Wade and encourage anyone else to contact him if you need any jewelry work done. I had a very meaningful watch and after a couple of years it broke. I took my watch to (redacted) Jewelers at the Holyoke mall and it took them over 2-3 months to get an estimate (they sent it to someone else) after about 3 months they gave me an estimate of $450! I knew that was way too high and I got it back. shortly after I saw Wade and he actually fixed my watch for $60.00. I have known Wade for many years and have complete faith in trust in him and I’m so happy to have my watch back. Thanks once again Wade!! – Paul H., Chicopee

This is how it all started…

in 1980, Wade DuBois started as an apprentice jeweler and watch repair craftsman at the former Fairfield Mall in Chicopee Massachusetts. He was just 16 years old. In 1988, Wade branched off and opened his first Jewelry & Watch Repair shop “DuBois Jewelers” in the Former Uniroyal building on Grove Street in Chicopee. He built his business and client base and, in 1992, Wade moved back to the Fairfield Mall. In 1996, upon announcement that the Fairfield Mall would be closing and demolished to make way for the Home Depot & Walmart shopping Center, Wade moved his shop to Aldenville on Grattan Street in Chicopee.

In 1998, Wade was offered a position with the Hampden County Sheriff’s Department. Having a passion for helping others, Wade closed his jewelry store business and pursued his dream of being a police officer and Sheriff’s Deputy. In addition to his position with the Sheriff’s Office, Wade attended the Police Academy and joined his local police department as a part-time police officer. In 2019, Wade retired from both departments to return to his love of repairing jewelry and watches.

In January 2019, the Jewelry Medic™ was born. Wade purchased an ambulance and outfitted it with state-of-the-art jewelry and watch repair equipment. After just three months of travelling to customers to repair their watches and gems, Wade started dealing with numbness and tingling in right hand and was initially diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy. Worried that this was a progressive disorder, Wade sold his idea, trademark name, ambulance, and website jewelry911.com to Jim and James Matero of Jaymark Jewelers in Cold Spring, NY. Wade re-designed the Jewelry Medic™ logo to include Jim Matero’s caricature likeness and delivered the redesigned ambulance to the Matero family.

In November 2019, Wade was re-evaluated and learned that he was mis-diagnosed. He did not have Peripheral Neuropathy after all. He learned that the numbness and tingling in his right hand was, instead, just a simple nerve compression.

Fast forward to late 2023. After (literally) 100’s of requests for watch and jewelry repair, Wade decided to re-enter the jewelry and watch repair business. Our new Mobile Repair Center is out and about in your neighborhood. Let us restore, repair, upgrade your old jewelry today.
