    Horrendous service from their repair centre when I tied to change a battery in my watch. Very long ETA’s were provided which kept extending. They didn’t call me when they said they would, so I had to chase them all the time. After a month, when I finally receive a quote the price was more than 10 times higher than their closest competitor. When I refused to proceed because of the high quote and asked for my watch back they still tried to charge me for their postage costs, which they never discussed with me prior. When I refused to pay their postage costs, they made obscene gestures at me and kicked me out of their store. Considering I bought my Breitling from them originally, this experience was shockingly disappointing. I will not be returning to their store or buying anything from them again.

    My wife, son and myself dropped in to the Brisbane Hardy Bros store to purchase a band for a Breitling yesterday. Walked out an hour later with a beautiful B&R for Cynthia. The most beautiful watch I have ever seen. The decision was made easy with the terrific service from Agata and her very own B&R masterpiece. Chapeau Agata, you are an excellent host and looked after us incredibly well by making the whole experience fun and interesting. Cynth is feeling very blessed and extremely happy with her latest masterpiece.

    Massive thanks to the friendly Hardy Brothers staff for helping me find the perfect watch for my partner last week! They have a great selection of watch brands, specifically their Breitling collection. A special thanks to the manager for helping a very confused watch buyer 😂 she had extensive knowledge of all their beautiful time pieces. Couldn’t recommend them enough!

    Fantastic service and a fantastic team! I went into Hardy Brothers, and the team helped me pick out a stunning Bell & Ross timepiece. It was my first big purchase and I was a bit apprehensive at first, but Agata and her staff were extremely patient and answered all the questions I had. I'd highly recommend popping into the store for your jewellery and watch needs!

    Amazing service by Agata. I was in the market for a watch to celebrate a milestone. Hardy brothers was the first places I went into by chance and reputation. On walking in I explained I wasn't sure exactly what I was looking for but Agata pointed me straight to a watch that she knew would be perfect. Agatas service was so good, that while I was awestruck by the peice, I thought to myself surely this isn't this easy!! I then deliberated and visited many other stores narrowing it down to 2 watches one from HB and one from another boutique. Going back in a week later Agata recognised me and my partner (despite our masks) , and showed the watch she suggested at the start. Needless to say I purchased it and love it. Hardy Brothers service and in particular Agata, was exceptional. The bracelet was resized to exactly what I requested and nothing was too much effort. Thank you again Agata and team. We will certainly be back!!

    Best purchase experience. Impressive service from the European lady(Forgot how to pronounce the name). Very friendly approach, treated me like a friend instead of customer. Gave me a lot of advice, very knowledgeable. She didn’t sell me a watch, she helped me own one. Will definitely come back.

    Access to the Swiss branded watch style is all this firm is useful for. Do NOT expect any customer service but do expect to get charged a lot of money and not know what you are paying for.

    Thank you to the team and especially thanks to Agata, for fantastic service and making it a special occasion for my husband, he was super surprised. I am really happy with the purchase and the service was more then we were expecting. Highly recommend!

    My fiancé purchased my beautiful engagement ring from Hardy Brothers in the City. When it came time to get wedding bands I had a specific idea of what I wanted but it was more complicated than anticipated due to the ring elevation. Mel was determined! After a few failed options that were either not what I wanted or too expensive, she found a solution to my wedding band and engagement set that is perfect! I love it and can’t wait to wear them together when we get married in Feb. So grateful that Mel kept on trying so hard to match my desired look and so appreciative of her patience and communication when it got hard and I was frustrated! Thank you Mel!!

    The most disappointing experience with a jeweller in a very long time. Service absolutely hopeless with left hand no idea what the right hand is doing. Waited 8 weeks for an order only to find they hadn't bothered to order it in the first place.

    While the botique is closed here in Brisbane I still received the most amazing customer service from Team at HB. Everything from the online enquiry and purchase with Penelope to the personal hand delivery of my watch by Alexander to my doorstep could not have gone any smoother. There are not enough stars on Google to rate this experience. Thank you so much!!!

    Alexander, Gemma and the team were an absolute pleasure to deal with. They went above and beyond our expectations. The timepiece was perfect and the range exceptional. I would thoroughly recommend anybody looking for jewellery or watches to visit Hardy Brothers Brisbane or visit them online.

    Very high quality pieces and fully customisable to my needs. Phil and Kim provided a very warm and welcoming experience and was very helpful throughout every stage. From insightful design ideas and thoughtful consideration for special occasions, to showcasing exceptional detail in the final product, Kimmison produced a piece that will be truly treasured. I would not hesitate to shop at Kimmison again for our next occasion and gladly recommend them to anyone looking for personalised, high quality jewellery.

    Such a beautiful selection of jewellery and the handmade items are also of exceptional quality. Excellent and personable service every time. Would highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Loc N. 3 years ago on Google
    Quality jewellery with really personalised service. They go that extra mile and provide in depth knowledge about their products. They listen to your needs and are just lovely people.

  • 5/5 Eric L. 3 years ago on Google
    Have been to visit Kim & Phil on several occasions for various items and each time the journey that they take you on, ensures you are happy with every aspect of the new piece of jewellery, that they tailor to suit your desires. I have been to them with drawings and ideas in our heads & they manage to translate that into something tangible & beautiful each time. Kim and Phil are an amazing team, turning dreams into reality! Quality craftsmanship and a super friendly service means that you will not be disappointed 👍🏼 Would happily and highly recommend their services to everyone & will definitely be continuing to visit them in the future 😊

  • 5/5 Laura P. 3 years ago on Google
    From start to finish Kim and Phil have been nothing short of amazing! I went to them with some stones and a design drawn on a sticky note, they turned those ideas into the engagement ring of my dreams. I am very happy to be again using them for our wedding bands. I wouldn't consider using anyone else, Kim and Phil are great to work with an will make your dreams a reality.

  • 5/5 Emily R. 6 years ago on Google
    What an amazing little family, my ring is exactly what I wanted and couldn't find anywhere else. Phil and Kim (and their tiny little man) made us feel so welcome. LBGT friendly and so happy to work within your budget to give you the perfect peice. Located on the balcony level of the arcade.

  • 5/5 Kim F. 7 years ago on Google
    Wonderfully personal handmade jewelry. Kim and Phil are so friendly and provide a first class service and product.

  • 5/5 John R. 6 years ago on Google
    Have used Kimmison jewellery several times over the past 4 years for engagement, wedding & eternity rings. Their service and jewellery is second to none. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

  • 5/5 Gemma F. 5 years ago on Google
    Could not be happier with the amazing service and impeccable craftsmanship offered by Kimmison Jewellery. Absolutely in love with both my stunning engagement ring and wedding band, thank you so much.

  • 5/5 Kelly D. 5 years ago on Google
    When shopping for an opal around Brisbane I found that most of the rings I could afford were very plain and uninteresting. I was worried that any shop in the Brisbane Arcade would be way too expensive for my budget, but I wandered into Kimmison Jewellery anyway to browse their collection. Within 10 minutes Kim was helping me design my own custom ring for less money than any of the rings I’d seen all day. I They spent so much time working with me to get the perfect design, and the result is something not only beautiful but totally unique. If you want to be treated like royalty and get a stunning piece of jewellery from one of the most beautiful shopping malls in Brisbane, this is the place.

  • 5/5 Anthea B. 3 years ago on Google
    Where to begin...Sorry this is a bit long but the experience from the very start was amazing and I want to tell the internet all about it. Kim made us feel so welcome and at ease. From the initial email enquiry Kim was super friendly and prompt in responding with information and she was patient with my partner and I when we visited the studio (particularly when I asked to look at so many of the lovely loose gems and try different configurations for a custom ring, so many lovely sparkly things to look at!). Kim's knowledge on the different qualities of stones (hardness, origin etc) guided us in making our decisions. When I decided to swap out one of the stones Kim was so patient in going through more stones and combinations again with us, all the while wanting to ensure I was 100% happy with my choices and going to love my custom piece. Kim and Phil were kind in rushing our order through as we needed my ring for a particular date and hadn't allowed much lead time. The digital mock ups were really great and informative so we felt comfortable giving the green light to proceed. Now we get to the part where we collect the finished ring - it was even better than I expected. The digital mock up didn't do it justice and having never done this before, I was a little unsure on the whole process but I LOVE my ring and want everyone to know how fabulous Kimmison Jewellery is. I will definitely be visiting Kim and Phil again and I look forward to having other special pieces made in the future. If you're looking for a down-to-earth, genuine, well priced, well made, local Brissy artisan experience then you should contact Kim and Phil - I think you'll love it like I did.

  • 5/5 Daniel D. 4 years ago on Google
    My now fiancé and I visited Kim and Phil at their store 6 months ago with some diamond rings that belonged to an aunt. We wanted to use these to design something special but had no idea what our options were. Kim inspired us to design a beautiful engagement ring that exceeded both of our expectations. Throughout the process Kim and Phil were supportive with all our questions and provided us all the information we needed to know. The ring itself is stunning and we couldn't be happier. We look forward to getting our wedding bands designed there when the time comes!

  • 5/5 Elisabeth T. 4 years ago on Google
    My husband and I were gifted some diamonds which had previously belonged to his mother before she had passed away. We brought the diamonds into Kimmison Jewellery and with the help of Kim and Phil, we were able to design wedding bands that not only incorporated the diamonds but also worked well with the engagement ring my husband had proposed to me with. When it was time to pick up the rings, we were absolutely blown away with the phenomenal job that they had done. Not only are Kim and Phil knowledgeable, they are also extremely friendly and a pleasure to deal with. We are always receiving compliments on how stunning our rings are and we couldn't thank them both enough. We highly recommend going here if you are looking to create something special!

  • 5/5 ashley m. 2 years ago on Google
    I have recently received an excellent experience with my online purchases. Being interstate and locked down due to restrictions, Penelope has been more than helpful, delivery and quality expectations were accurate. I am definitely recommending Penelope’s quality service. You an asset to Hardy Brothers Penelope thank you again

  • 5/5 Nick B. 2 years ago on Google
    I was interested in a Brielting Colt 41 (there were hardly any left in Australia aside from one at the Brisbane Hardy Brothers shop) I ended up talking with Eiko from the Brisbane team, she helped me out big time! She sent the watch to the Sydney Hardy Brothers shop so i could try it on. Eiko always got back to me even late at night via text message. She was extremely helpful :) I have bought the watch and i am very happy with the entire experience and customer service!

  • 5/5 Adrian O. 2 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Angela O. 1 year ago on Google
    Terrible customer service. Was told twice by the sales assistant she would get back to me with details about a pink diamond but she never did. I would have expected far better from Hardy Brothers

  • 1/5 Amirooo 1 year ago on Google
    The lack of care, commitment and respect in customer service is obvious... sad to see one of the good jewlery brands is now downgraded...

  • 1/5 Jason P. 1 year ago on Google
    Purchased a Bell & Ross Ceramic 12.3.22 - 4 months in the watch snapped at the link for the band connected to the face, occurring whist wrist was back putting on shoes. still under warranty - they denied stating in their opinion watch was dropped or damaged. I got a lawyer as I was disgusted, they still refuse to replace and have only agreed to repair after legal action and a phone call from a local media source, from there legal response it was stated that any further public action in relation to the media they would sue for damages under a slander claim. This in my opinion is a terrible company and consumers be aware. I will advise there was never a time in which I was ever contacted by hardy brothers to ask how the watch broke, they made there own decision via a third party assessment through Wallace Bishop. I am disgusted, and its of my opinion in this instance they have put profits before service, Staff are also rude on after - sales. Hardy brothers !! please get a lawyer use this as your claim on slander as I would love to see you in court. :)

    Komi and the HB team made my first Bremont experience an absolutely wonderful one. Not only knowledgeable and informative, but also understable and accommodating. Surely be returning for upgrades.

    The team at Hardy Brothers worked tirelessly to find the exact product I was looking for, they arranged for shipping and delivery as soon as the item arrived. The entire process was simple and hassle free!

  • 5/5 Thanomsack L. 4 years ago on Google
    Made a last minute gift purchase here before flying back home and the item I wanted wasn't in stock. It would normally take a few days to get stock in but since I didn't have time left, Nabeel, made a few calls to HQ and arranged to have someone take the train from Gold Coast to bring it to me on the day. This level of customer service by the whole Hardy Brothers team would deserve a 5 star rating however it didn't end there. After returning home and gifting the item, I came to realize that the fit was off and Nabeel again helped to arrange for extra parts to be Fedex to me free of charge. Truly exceptional service and my gratitude. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Cassandra S. 3 years ago on Google
    Gemma at HB helped me to organise a gift for a friend of ours over the course of a few months. Due to my job schedule she was able to communicate with me over email which suited me and provided amazing service, helping me source exactly what I was after for a great price. She sent me photos of the item, had it all packed up in beautiful gift wrap and the first time I met her was the day I went to pick it up. The service at HB is second to none and the items they have available are spectacular. Would definitely recommend them and I will definitely shop there again.

  • 5/5 Dean E. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Richard R. 3 years ago on Google
    Visited the new Brisbane Hardy Brothers location a couple of times this month. A great location, excellent range of quality pieces and outstanding friendly staff. I was made very welcome which isn't always the case in high end retailers of this type.

  • 5/5 Nicholas B. 3 years ago on Google
    I had a satisfying experience shopping for a watch for my son and wife. Already being a Breitling owner made the process easier. The staff were courteous and polite. The premises is very nice also. Thanks Hardy Brothers!

  • 5/5 annamarieisme j. 4 years ago on Google
    I have recently worked with Madelyn instore, in the design and making of some special pieces. She went above and beyond in every way, with her time, expertise and patience throughout the process. I cannot thank her enough for helping me along the way and striving to deliver in a timely manner, to the costings I could afford. She has an impressive knowledge base and a good eye for design. I am very happy with the end result and would not hesitate to consult her again in the future.

  • 5/5 Chris G. 5 years ago on Google
    I can't stress enough how great Kim and Phil have been through the whole process of designing and making both our rings. Their craftsmanship and care is amazing and they are just so much fun to deal with, it really made the whole process just so easy.

    My partner and I have had the most wonderful experience with Kimmison Jewellery. Kim is such a warm and knowledgeable presence who made us feel at ease from the moment we first walked into the store. It’s a huge decision - finding the right piece of jewellery that you intend to wear everyday for the rest of your life but Kim and Phil have totally delivered - impeccable design and quality at a great price. One of our biggest stipulations was that we wanted the stones to be ethically sourced which was also not a problem at all at Kimmison. Couldn’t recommend a place more. We’re so grateful that we stumbled upon this store!

  • 5/5 Monique R. 4 years ago on Google
    Cannot recommend Kimmison Jewellery enough. My custom piece is everything I wanted, with the experience being thoughtful, knowledgeable and transparent. Amazing.

  • 5/5 Adam B. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Ellie B. 6 years ago on Google
    Kim and Phil were absolutely amazing in helping me decide on a design for my wedding band. Not only did Kim understand what I wanted, but Phil delivered a perfect piece at a really affordable price. Thank you so much Kim and Phil, you made it easy for me, and I will forever be a customer!

  • 5/5 Celine T. 6 years ago on Google
    Kim and Phil are the best! They did such an amazing job with my engagement ring, I love it so much! Most importantly though, Kim is just the most warm and lovely person and she could not have made the process any more enjoyable for us! Highly recommended.
