Jeweler with a watchmaker

Aman’s Jewelers

On-site watchmaker at this Corpus Christi jeweler handles battery changes, full overhauls, crystal and bracelet work, with turnaround often measured in hours.

Aman's Jewelers is a jewelry store on S Padre Island Dr with a watchmaker working on site rather than sending pieces out. That in-house setup covers the basics most owners need — battery replacement, crystal replacement, bracelet sizing and case or bracelet polishing — plus more involved work like full service and overhaul, vintage watch repair, and pressure testing for water resistance.

The watchmaker holds AWCI CW21 and WOSTEP certifications, credentials tied to the individual technician's training rather than the shop. The shop says it is an authorized Rolex service center, and it also lists Seiko and Grand Seiko among the brands it services directly.

For people not local to Corpus Christi, Aman's offers a mail-in service, so a watch can be sent for repair without an in-person visit. Turnaround on many jobs is described as a few hours rather than weeks, though that will depend on what the watch needs — a battery swap is a different job than a full movement overhaul.

The store keeps long hours most days, open until 8 or 9pm on weekdays and Saturday, with shorter Sunday hours, which is useful if a repair needs to be dropped off or picked up outside a typical workday.
