Winterthur

Zürich's second city runs its own full jewellery scene, concentrated in the Altstadt around Marktgasse and Obertor: family businesses trading since the 1930s, authorised watch dealers with in-house goldsmiths, and a memorial-jewellery studio that also cuts wedding rings. It deserves its own category rather than a footnote, both for the genuine volume of real, verified businesses and because a Winterthur search has nothing to do with a Bahnhofstrasse one. Expect more walk-in, less appointment-only, and prices that can undercut the city centre for comparable work. We rank by years on the same address and how explicit each site is about its bridal-ring offer.
