Getting Here from New Braunfels
Via IH-35 South — the direct route. Take IH-35 South from New Braunfels toward San Antonio, exit at Loop 410 West, continue to Wurzbach Rd, turn left — we’re at 11808 Wurzbach Rd. Approximately 38–45 minutes depending on IH-35 traffic. IH-35 is the main artery connecting New Braunfels to San Antonio, making this a familiar drive for most New Braunfels residents.
New Braunfels has grown significantly in the past decade — one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S. — attracting a mix of Austin transplants, San Antonio commuters, and retiring professionals. This demographic often accumulates quality watches and fine jewelry during careers before downsizing or upgrading collections.
New Braunfels also sits on the edge of the Texas Hill Country, a region that draws second-home and weekend-getaway buyers from across Texas. Estate collections from Hill Country properties sometimes include watches purchased decades ago that now carry strong secondary-market value — Rolex Datejust and Omega Seamaster from the 1980s–1990s are particularly common finds.
We buy fine jewelry, loose diamonds, gold, and silver in addition to watches. Many New Braunfels sellers combine a San Antonio trip to Watch Affinity with other city errands, turning what might otherwise require multiple trips into one efficient stop on Wurzbach Rd.

Common Questions
Where can I sell my watch near New Braunfels, TX?
Watch Affinity at 11808 Wurzbach Rd, San Antonio, TX 78230 is approximately 40 minutes from New Braunfels via IH-35 South.

Is it worth the drive from New Braunfels to sell a luxury watch?
For watches worth $3,000 or more, yes — consistently. Online platforms like eBay and Chrono24 charge 8–12% seller fees and expose you to shipping risk, payment disputes, and buyer returns. Watch Affinity pays immediately on acceptance with no deductions. For a $10,000 Rolex, that difference can be $800–1,200. The 40-minute drive typically pays for itself many times over.

Do you buy jewelry and gold from New Braunfels residents?
Yes — jewelry and gold purchases are a significant part of our business. Many New Braunfels clients bring diamond rings, estate pieces, and gold jewelry alongside their watches. We evaluate everything individually and provide separate written offers with no obligation. Same-day payment on any accepted offer.
