Chapel Street Pawnbrokers

Chapel Street Pawnbrokers is a family-run pawnshop and jeweller on Chapel Street in South Yarra, describing itself as "Victoria's oldest family run pawnshop" with more than 50 years in the trade. Alongside cash loans and valuation certificates, the business lists watch and jewellery repairs among its core services, telling customers: "Broken watch or jewellery? we'll fix it to like the day you got it." It also offers custom jewellery design and engraving work. Because it operates first and foremost as a pawnbroker - buying, selling and lending cash against gold, diamonds and other valuables - this is best suited to customers wanting general watch or jewellery repair alongside pawnbroking services, rather than those seeking a dedicated watch specialist.
