Mission Viejo has plenty of places to buy jewelry. It has far fewer where the person you talk to is the person who makes and repairs it. At Kaz Jewelry, next door in Laguna Niguel, that person is master jeweler Albert Kaz, who has been making fine jewelry for more than 40 years.
Custom Engagement Rings & Jewelry Repair for Mission Viejo
Custom engagement rings, made in our own studio
Albert designs each ring with you, from the first sketch and 3D design through casting and stone setting. Nothing is sent out. You can compare certified natural and lab-grown diamonds side by side in the showroom before you decide. Every ring is different, so Albert will talk through timing with you once he knows what you have in mind.
Walk-ins are welcome, but an appointment lets Albert set time aside for you.
Jewelry repair done by the jeweler, not shipped away
Every repair starts with Albert looking at the piece himself and explaining your options. Ring sizing, prong and stone work, chain and clasp repair, platinum repair, laser welding, rhodium plating and ring reconditioning are all done at his bench. Because the work stays in-house, turnaround is quick.
No appointment is needed for repairs.
Watch batteries and watch repair
We replace batteries with a new gasket every time, fit bands and crystals, adjust links, and clean and recondition automatic and mechanical watches. We work on all brands.

A Mission Viejo couple came to Albert with a list of ideas for one engagement ring and expected to give some of them up. He designed a ring that kept every one. In her words: "My now fiancé went to Kaz for a custom engagement ring, and let me tell you, Albert is a truly talented artist, designer and jeweler! I had made peace with possibly picking and choosing what might be realistically incorporated into the design of the ring. Albert was able to seamlessly incorporate all of it into the design, and his attention to detail is impossible to deny. Thank you so much!!” Annie, Mission Viejo

Questions from Mission Viejo clients
Do I need an appointment? Not for repairs. For a custom ring, an appointment is best so Albert can give you his full attention.

Do you carry lab-grown diamonds? Yes, certified, and you can see them next to natural diamonds in person.
