In 1972, George Karkazian was cutting diamonds when he applied to watch repairing school, and one year later he opened his own watch and jewelery store while attending the Swiss Horological Institute in Beirut. Five years later he came to Fresno and opened his first store on West & Shields. Soon after, Karkazian Jewelers moved to the corner of Shaw and Willow where they established themselves as one of the valleys leaders in jewelery/watch sales and repair for over 30 years. In July 2007, Karkazian Jewelers added a second location in north Fresno at the corner of Friant and Ft. Washington. In February 2009, Karkazian Jewelers moved their Clovis location two blocks to East, right on Shaw Avenue between Willow and Peach.
