  • 5/5 Carolynn S. 1 year ago on Google
    I brought an antique turquoise and silver ring from my mom here to be resized (it had been crushed and wasnt even circular anymore). I don't even know if the ring is worth anything but I love it and wanted to be able to wear it because it means a lot to me. This was the third shop I had brought the ring to -- the other two places told me they couldn't fix it. They said the process would damage it further. I was treated very kindly at Watch & Wares. The gentlemen I gave my ring to was welcoming and confident he could fix my ring without damaging it and he was right. In fact, when I told him what they other shops said, he responded with something along the lines of, "Well, I'm sure they honestly didn't know how to fix it, but we sure do!" It turned out beautifully! I was very pleased and it gives me confidence to bring in other old pieces that I want to be able to wear.

    I brought my son in this morning to see about getting the band on his men’s size watch sized to fit his little wrist. Will was so incredibly kind to us. He went right to work to take out a number of links while we waited in his beautiful shop. A short amount of time later, Will had the watch ready for my son to wear out! Will was very generous and kind and we are thrilled to have found this little gem of a watch & jewelry store right in our neighborhood! Thank you Will for making my son’s day!

    William and his team are phenomenal. They exceeded my expectations when it comes to customer service and truly listening to what I was looking for. I’ve been in search for a specific watch for a couple years now, and William brought that to life for me. William is honest, professional, and courteous. Highly recommend purchasing your watch here! They even sell other luxury items such as handbags and jewelry! Don’t waste your time going anywhere else!! Thank you William and team so much for your help!!

    Fast & easy, would highly recommend this shop to anyone! I was immediately greeted upon walking in and was helped right away. It appears to be a family business and you can feel the warmth immediately. I just needed to get my watch sized they handled everything great and only took about 10 minutes for sizing removing the links etc. They have gorgeous unique jewelry, watches & clocks- very enjoyable to browse while waiting. Linda was so nice and showed me some of her favorite pieces. It was nice to see refreshingly different jewels and designs compared to your big stores. I would definitely come back for any more jewelry repair needs and shopping! Very reasonable prices, but most of all I appreciate the customer service. Check them out!

    This store and it's staff are remarkable, as they are probably the most "courteous" Jewelers I have ever done business with, aside from the fact that they are exceptional in their craft, acumen, and creativity in creating alternative style or solutions dealing with jewelry or working with Gold. These people are also professional and gracious, and I believe that is why they have the reputation that they do. They are not only a business, but also an integral part of the local community because of what they do, how they do it, and how they represent themselves. I strongly recommend them. I recently visited Watch & Wares again after a period of a couple of years, and they are still consummate professionals and courteous beyond expectation!

    Very nice showroom plus owner very knowledgeable! Bought my first Rolex from him and couldn't be happier. No pressure sale! I'll be back!

  • 5/5 Hugh 7 years ago on Google
    Superb service and integrity. I bought a watch from them online through pictures and a phone conversation and couldn't have had a better experience. William and his staff put me at ease and gave me the necessary information. They were also lightning fast in processing my order. When I received the watch I was over the moon with it because the condition was far better than described. I definitely recommend them and will have the pleasure of doing business again. Thank you for this great experience.

    I came in with two separate rings that were gifted to me from my grandparents who have passed away with the goal of turning the two rings into my wedding band. They were very helpful to me from start to finish and honest with suggestions on how the final product would look based on what materials I had. The ring is so BEAUTIFUL. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome for such a sentimental piece.

  • 5/5 Robert S. 1 year ago on Google
    My fiancé and I designed her engagement ring her and they did an excellent job finding the right design within budget and accommodating the changes needed. Very good communication and suggestions with an great selection of stones. Would recommend checking out if searching or wanting to design any jewelry

    I went in needing help with getting a loose stone to a setting. After talking with multiple jewelers in the area who couldn't help me, I reached out to Watch and Wares and they told me to come on in and they would see what they could do. Everyone is so nice and knowledgable to work with. The owner William looked at what I brought and mentioned they may need to tweak the setting for the sake of safety of the stone but said they could take care of it, but would get me a formal estimate. John and Linda were prompt and helpful in getting me in and out on my lunch break. I got my estimate back and approved the work and got my piece back the next week. I'm so impressed and it turned out phenomenal. I never imagined it would look so good. Watch and Wares is amazing. 10/10 would recommend.

    Sami had great insight on gems and precious metals. He made us feel incredible comfortable and gave us knowledgeable recommendations. My favorite piece was an amber ring, which I found very unique compared to other stores. I highly recommend going here and even just taking a look.

    I recently came in for watch repair and the treatment I received was great. William was surprisingly fast and watch is better than ever! Highly recommend. Best watch repair I've been to hands down! Shop had an array of really nice vintage watches as well.

    William is the best. He's courteous and patient, unlike others in the same field. His selection is impeccable, both of jewelry and watches. His prices match the quality. It will never be a bad time stopping by here.
