Afram's Jewelers

Afram's Jewelers is a fine jewelry store on Airline Rd in Corpus Christi's South Side that also runs a watch repair bench in house. The shop is set up as a jeweler with a watchmaker on staff, so watch work sits alongside jewelry repair, appraisals, and gold buying under the same roof.

On the watch side, the listed focus is Seiko, and the shop is set up to handle full service and overhaul work on these pieces rather than quick fixes only. If you're bringing in a Seiko or Grand Seiko that needs a full teardown, cleaning, and regulation, this is the kind of job the shop is positioned for, though it's worth calling ahead to confirm what's involved for your specific model and movement.

The store has been operating in South Texas since 1978, which at least points to some staying power in the local jewelry trade, though that history applies to the business overall rather than specifically to its watch repair program. No pricing or turnaround times are listed for watch service, so anyone needing a repair should call or stop in to get a quote and an estimated timeline.

Afram's is open Tuesday through Saturday, 10am to 6pm, closed Sunday and Monday. The shop can be reached by phone at (361) 993-9391 or through its website for questions before dropping off a watch.
