Wristwatch Doc<\/i> is the follow-on operation to Jewelery Mart<\/a> in the Bruegger's<\/i> building on Forest Drive next to Cardinal Newman<\/i>. When they were setting up, their sign went up in the old Jewelery Mart<\/i> spot on the roadside marquee:<\/p>\n

and the shop door:<\/p>\n

but was shortly joined by a sign for Artisan Jewelers<\/i>:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

That, I figured, was the \"official\" name for the place, but in the event it appears I was wrong and Artisan<\/i> and Wristwatch Doc<\/I> were separate businesses sharing retail space. In the event, Wristwatch Doc<\/i> has now gotten their own storefront on Fort Jackson Boulevard, and has added gold buying to their portfolio. I did stop in once at the Forest Drive location, and they changed my watch battery quickly and with no problem (especially compared to a memorable battery change in Augusta Mall when I thought I might be getting my watch back in pieces..)<\/p>\n

UPDATE 13 July 2011<\/b>: Changed \"(moved)\" in the post title to \"(expanded)\" to account for the Jackson space. Also, they have a new sign on Forest now:<\/p>\n
