Relojería Cester

A traditional watch shop in central Zaragoza

Relojería Cester is a traditional watch shop at Calle de San Jorge 7 in central Zaragoza. In business since 1972, it has more than five decades of experience selling and repairing watches. Its workshop works on modern wristwatches as well as older pieces, including wall and longcase clocks.

Official service center

Since 1995, Relojería Cester has provided official technical service in Aragón for brands represented by Grupo Cadarso. Brands it services include SEIKO, PULSAR, VICTORINOX, and TOUS WATCHES. The shop identifies itself as an Official Seiko Service Center in Zaragoza.

The shop carries watches from a range of brands and styles, including:

• Seiko
• Victorinox
• Lorus
• Maserati
• Pulsar
• Casio
• Engstler, Schneider, and Hönes cuckoo clocks
• Smartwatches

The company also says it sells silver jewelry. The website features a specific item available only at its San Jorge 7 store: a 1950s 18-karat gold Omega, Ref. 2619, priced at €3,490.

Cuckoo clock expertise

Relojería Cester specializes in Black Forest cuckoo clocks, handmade by Engstler, Schneider, and Hönes. The company says repairing these clocks requires experience, original replacement parts, and specialized tools, and that it has serviced hundreds over the years.

Repair services

The workshop handles jobs of varying complexity, from battery replacement to complete overhauls. Services include:

• Battery replacement and resealing, with the battery and gaskets replaced while you wait.
• Water-resistance testing and adjustments to help maintain water resistance.
• Same-visit strap replacement and fitting, with a catalog of different materials.
• Maintenance and full repairs for mechanical, automatic, quartz, and digital watches.

The company says it needs to inspect a watch in person at the shop before providing an estimate and cannot give exact prices by phone or email. It also notes that in-store models change quickly and stock is limited, so availability can only be confirmed in person or during a visit.
