I am so very pleased to have found Art, and have him repair and service an antique anniversary…read moreclock and pocket watch. Art is a very skilled watchmaker and a kind and fair person to do business with. I have numerous antique time pieces that are all family heirlooms. Therefore I have dealt with a number of watchmakers over the years. Art has been the best by far. My pocket watch belonged to my great Grandad, and it had stopped working. It is a very important family heirloom to me, with a lot of sentimental value. I went to two other watchmakers before I found Art, and they both told me it needed a part and they weren't available, so it could not be repaired. When I found Art, he was willing to look at it and take it apart to clean and service the movement to see if it would work again. Turns out the others were wrong, it did not need any parts, and Art got it working again, fully cleaned, serviced, adjusted, and oiled. It's running better than it ever has now. He did the work in a very reasonable amount of time, for a reasonable cost. I am a very happy and grateful customer, who will be only dealing with Art from now on. Thank you so much Art!

I really wasn't looking forward to the task. At first, I took some collections of medallions my mother had collected over decades. I was given a direct, informative description of every item.

Over the next 4 months, I took more and more items to them.... more, jewelry, silver dollars, etc. In the end, I think we did somewhere around $10k worth of business together.

I have taken my watches there for many years, but I have noticed that his prices have gone up tremendously in the last few years, so I am not sure the value is there anymore. For a regular watch repair, battery/strap replacement, etc., I would advise to go elsewhere for a much better rate. That having been said, his workmanship is without reproach.

My fiancée took her engagement ring in to have a companion wedding band made for it. She said she…read morewanted to look at the wax mold before the ring was made. The mold was promised to be ready three weeks later. That date came and went with no communication from Jewelry Affair. My fiancée called a week later and the owner explained they were running behind because of snow, which was a lame response (I own a business two blocks away and still managed to take care of our customers during the snow days). He also said his wife had been sick, which would have been easier to be understanding of if someone had at least called us. He said he would have the mold done soon and get back to us. Another week passed with no contact from Jewelry Affair. Three more days passed and the owner's wife left a voice message explaining again that they were delayed owing to snow and her not feeling well. She said the mold would be done in another week. That week passed with no word from Jewelry Affair. I called at this point and spoke to Beth, the owners wife. I said my "patience is exhausted." She said she would look into it and get back to me, again leaning in on the excuses of snow and health delays, this time adding that it's just the two of them (as though their staffing problems should be my problem.) Four days passed with no contact from Jewelry Affair. That Friday my fiancée and I walked into the store and expressed our frustration. Beth explained that she wasn't able to call me back because my name is not in the invoice. She did not explain what kept her from calling my fiancée instead. We were offered no apologies or accommodations. The owner, Rodney, appeared at the top of the stairs to further argue our position and explain away their horrible customer service but could not be bothered to come down and speak with us. I was very angry at this point, and though I did not use profanity and merely suggested they try communicating with their customers, he said I was "being nasty about this." I demanded they return the engagement ring (a $20,000 piece of jewelry). He said he needed it to finish the wedding band, which he had already poured, skipping the agreed step of allowing my fiancée to first look at the wax mold. Rodney said the ring would be done by noon the next day. We came back the next day and the ring was ready. Beth was quite pleasant. The ring was beautiful. It was a better ending to a frustrating experience that should have been joyful given the circumstances. It's too bad, really. The guy is a decent jeweler but, in my opinion, a crummy business man with an attitude problem. We won't be back.

My ring didn't look the same, and sadly I did not wear my glasses at the time. I wanted to remain polite and I paid for the resizing. When I went home I realized they chipped the stone on my ring. If you are not professional do not touch peoples valuable. Good manners and being supper polite does not cut it, when you destroy someone's ring. I will not bother going back, to say what. The ring is damaged anyway. I wouldn't ask you to stay away, I just had a very bad experience, and I will never go back.
