Amazing service when I needed a Omega watch sized for a graduation gift that was purchased from…read moreanother store not in Gainesville. They were courteous and ready to help us in a tight timeline. I gave my son a watch for graduation the night before the graduation ceremony but didn't fit his wrist. I called a few watch / jewelry stores in Gainesville via google search for option. The first two were a disappointment. I asked a for simple quote on being able to add 1 or 2 links to a new watch with one store wanting to charge $45 for a 5-10 min job and the other vendor would not even bother to quote. Oaks said cost will be around $20 depending on complexity but it is a new omega speedmaster and we know it is straightforward to solve. "We know he wants to wear for graduation so just come in and we will adjust it while you wait" That is exactly what they delivered and very satisfying to make it easy to do business with people who understand service and sense of urgency. They also told me the business has been in Gainesville for a long time and now you know why Thank you Oaks Jewelry!

A beautiful store with quality pieces and a wonderful staff.

This morning (Friday, 23 January 2026), I paid a visit to House of Time in Gainesville, FL, to see…read moreabout having an old pocket watch repaired. I handed the watch to the lady working the front showroom and shared what I knew about the watch's provenance; I also mentioned that I had just casually looked online for information about the maker (Wuesteman), the watch itself, etc. Before I could continue (to mention that I was interested in having my watch repaired), the woman, in a very harsh tone, said, "If you are looking for information, you will have to talk to my boss." To say that I was shocked by her abrupt interruption is a gross understatement. I quickly considered how the conversation had progressed up to that point and came to a conclusion. That she assumed I was only looking for information about the watch was, in my opinion, arrogant. After I asked her to return my watch to me, I replied to her - in a similar tone of voice - words to this effect: "You just made a big mistake. I was going to ask if my watch could be repaired. You assumed that I was only looking for information. You ASSUMED that." With that, I walked out the door. Yes, I could have continued with my request after her initial reply. A fully rational person might have been able to do that, but the manner in which she spoke to me soured any desire I might have had to do business with this establishment. I am reminded of the old saying, "You get only one chance to make a first impression." Bearing that in mind, someone with a more personable affect in customer-facing situations would be a great improvement to your business.

While the watch was…read morereal, Michael was so informative and spent some time showing me the poor craftsmanship that was done. He went over and above explaining things about the watch and even did a depth test on the watch which it failed! He didn't even charge me! I'm so happy that I went to House of Time because if I didn't, I would have lost $17K on a defective watch.

But she let us know she's professionally been in the jewelry business since she was 17 years old. Such a hidden gem inside The Mantle. I fell in love with a couple of pieces of hers and will definitely come back. We didn't buy anything but struck a great conversation with her. She was so insightful and such a great energy she carries. I love supporting local business and have always wanted a custom made engagement ring. My bf and I looked around and I tried a couple. I gave my bf some ideas to what I like. We didn't even plan to go ring shopping but while my bf was talking with the other lady in the front I struck a conversion with Lidia and we bonded over our love for simple and timeless jewelry. I took her card and I know I will one day have a beautiful ring curated by her for sure. She dedicates her time to creating such magical pieces of jewelry and you can tell it's her passion . It is very well priced for the amount of time and work she puts into it. Every piece tells a story. Highly recommend them!

I could not let something that special just get put away to sit in a box. I had an idea in mind but after researching was doubtful it could be done at all let alone be affordable. I decided to check with Sweetwater Jewelers and was ecstatic when Michelle not only told me she thought she could split each band in half but also may be able to keep some of the original pattern in each ring! I also wanted a part of each band together in each earring. She was able to do it ALL! They came out so much more unique and beautiful than I ever could imagine and I am thrilled! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU MICHELLE!! I had another ring sized and batteries put in four watches and everything was very reasonable!
