Paul Medawar Fine Jewelry Paul Medawar Fine Jewelry is a premier, family-owned jewelry and watch store in Grand Rapids, MI. Who are we? What is our story? Where are we now?

We are a family of specialized watch technicians, jewelers, and gemologists all dedicated to helping you create a special moment that will last for a lifetime. Founded in 1920 by Chakib Medawar, Medawar Jewelry was rapidly successful. Paul, one of Chakib's five sons, began learning his trade in watchmaking, clockmaking and jewelry repair at a very young age. He furthered his skills in Switzerland becoming certified in fine watch repair at the young age of 18. Paul instills his passion and expertise today in his sons Daniel and David, training them just as Chakib trained him. With over 90 years in the business, we guarantee the highest quality in both our fine merchandise and expert services. We specialize in a wide range of services such as jewelry repair and custom jewelry, and watch servicing and restoration.

Evolution 9 Hi-Beat 36000 Self-winding 80 Hours SLGH035 The Genbi Valley's flowing water in early summer is expressed through a unique pressed-pattern dial in light blue. Inside is the mechanical Caliber 9SA5, a Grand Seiko-exclusive automatic movement that delivers a high frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour and an impressive power reserve of approximately 80 hours. Both the case and bracelet are made of Ever-Brilliant Steel, which shines brighter than conventional stainless steel while offering exceptional corrosion resistance. The tapered bracelet comes with a three-step micro-adjustment clasp that operates without a tool, allowing a total of 6mm of fine adjustment in precise 2mm increments.
