I bought a Iwc pilot's watch here and am pleased with the watch and the buying experience. Their selection and supply of Iwc watches were great! I was surprised to see many popular models in front of my eyes. They sure look better in person! The price I paid wasn't the best but reasonable , compared to other places. The sales lady was very helpful, knowledgeable, and pleasant to deal with. I might go back and shop for new Omega watches! read more

Chong Hing Jewelers - Iwcschaffenhausen pilot's watch - Jewelry Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Been here twice and have had the same terrible experience. First time, I was looking for a certain Omega which they didn't have that I needed for a Christmas. They could order but wouldn't be in on time which is fine but the second I said no, they walk me out the door like I'm wasting their time. Today, I walk in, don't even make it to the counter and say I'm looking for a brand they don't carry. Instead of even following up with would you be interested in something else or letting me look around. I'm instantly walked outside and told to find it on my own from somewhere else. I would easily drop 5k on a whim if the service was even the slightest pleasant, but I guess I look like a bum. read more

Absolutely loved the place. Got to admire and try on watches i love with such a friendly and refined staff. Angel Shen guided me through the watch selection (of which there are many) and made the experience stress free and enjoyable. Definitely will be coming back read more

See all

HME. Hot Mess Express! Everything is "I'll give you good price, don't worry, good price". Okayyyy, but what is the price? SA said "if you're serious, I'll give you good price. I try my best, I promise." But I just want to know the PRICE. Jesus. Had a sweet SA showing my friend and I merchandise and I guess the manager, was running back and forth stating she will give the price. Long story short, she gave the wrong price. She wrote the total $14,920. We already handed her the cc and then she crosses it out and says it's the wrong price and I cannot buy it at that price. And to add insult, when I was taking a picture of the receipt she snatched it out of my hand. Prior to that, she snatched the calculator out of my hand as well. Now my total is $18,650 because she said the calculator calculated wrong. NO THANKS. Changing the price once you have the card in your hand? Unethical. Update 2/3/24 Thank you for your response and acknowledgment of this experience, Victoria. Human error would have been acceptable if she apologized and recognized the error on her part. Blaming the calculator, saying it's broken and it calculated wrong is an entirely different situation. When she snatched it away and stated "you cannot buy", she had no interest in trying to make a deal work. She had more interest in having us leave the store. Ironically, the store was having a visit from either vendors and owners . Everything was nice, up until they left. The security guard even left when they did and the other man was playing poker on his phone. Check your cameras.. we were there for at least 2 hours while the SA was running around and attending 2 different customers. There was no consideration to the time that we waited. And it wasn't a small amount looking to be purchased. Traditional Retail, especially in jewelry, is challenging for companies and owners. Service and merchandise should be even more exceptional! Regardless if it's $200 or $14,000, every dollar counts. The fact that she didn't even TRY to rectify the situation shows she doesn't need our business. DONT worry, we have no intentions in doing business with this company. read more

I visited this place to purchase my first timepiece. They have a large selection of watches and jewelry, so I was certain I was going to find what I wanted. Susan helped me and was very patient and informative. She speaks Mandarin, but I was able to communicate with her in English. I was deciding between two Omega pieces (Omega listed this place as an authorized store which is why I came here) and she explained the differences and benefits between the two watches. I had the best experience at this store and would totally recommend to anyone interested in a high end piece. I love my new watch and really appreciate the patience with my questions. The rest of the staff are kind and very friendly. I will definitely come back when I visit again. read more

I went in today to look at some rings and check my ring size. Strangely, when I asked to check my ring size, the lady at the desk said their ring sizer broke and told me to come back in a week. For a jewelry store, I'd think there'd be a way to see about a customer's ring size without them waiting a week... maybe I should tell them I picked out a ring first and then they'd be more willing to check my ring size. Either way, my enthusiasm for shopping at their store left after that. 今天我到店里想看一下戒指和测量一下我的戒指大小。很奇怪，柜台的女士说她们测量戒指的仪器/工具坏了，然后说要我一星期后回来。对于一个珠宝店，我觉得至少应该有不同的办法测量戒指大小，而不是要顾客一星期后回来。或许我要是我跟她说我看中了她们的商品，她就有办法帮我测量了。 不过这种态度后，实在是没有兴趣继续在她们的店看戒指了。 read more

I purchased the Omega CONSTELLATION watch from this place and I brought it to them to replace the battery and they told me it needs the regular maintenance! So I spent $300 and still did not work promptly. I think the technician behind is incomplete and dishonest! If they do not know what is the problem should be honest and referred me to the main Swath repair and maintenance in LA. Everyone should just bring to the the place as below: http://www.sguscustomerservice.com/ read more

I've been coming to Chong Hing since 2019 and have bough 8 or so timepieces from them both for me and my wife. Since 2020, I've worked exclusively with Julie Z who has been wonderful to work with--fun, caring, knowledgable, and attentive. All staff there are very friendly and considerate and treat me now practically like family. CH has a fantastic selection of fine jewelry and watches that makes it a true destination shopping experience in the SGV. I live in NW Pasadena, so the store is a bit far away, but I still love coming here and will continue to. read more

When I wanted to purchase a Grand Seiko, I approached Matthew "Matt" Castro at Chong Hing Jewelers' San Gabriel location. He was such a pleasure to deal with and was very open during the watch buying process. The next time I am in the market for another watch, I will surely contact Matt and Chong Hing Jewelers. read more

Patient and non pushy customer service, let us shop at our own pace but attentive when needed. Great deal on longines watch

We came here to buy a Longines women's watch after looking online to see which model we liked, and which local jewelry/watch stores sold that particular one. After deciding on a mother-of-pearl faced automatic Longines Conquest, we came here and went directly to the Longines section. I don't know the name of the salesperson but she was kind of friendly, not overly attentive, and was very obviously trying to get us to buy something with more diamonds on it. I really, really love this watch due to its simplistic classiness. Out of curiosity, we walked around the store and looked at all of the watches they had to offer, with most of the cases showing the big, ultra-high end name brands like Chopard, Omega, and Patek Philippes. The sales lady followed us around, which was actually a bit awkward since she was in earshot constantly and I wanted to talk to my boyfriend about the watch we were going to get. He said they do it to be helpful in case we had questions ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. The final price on the Conquest was $2800+ after tax, and she informed us that they had some sort of special going on that would give us a big discount. It came out to be roughly $2200 after tax which was great since Longines' website listed it at $2500! We were in and out pretty quickly. She packaged everything carefully and adjusted the wristband as needed. Explained all the docs that came with the watch too. Overall a pretty good experience. read more

Jewelry selection here is a nice, varied amount. I came here with my dad to see some wedding accessories and they had a good selection. The woman who helped us was friendly enough, and I appreciate that she was not overly pushy/over-selling. However, for the price of their selection, the service just didn't match up. Some of these pieces are on par with Cartier, but there is definitely a major difference in service between the 2. Chong Hing is about as attentive as what you'd expect to get from a jewelry shop in the 626, even though it's on a higher price range. read more

This place racist and snobby. I just read other peoples reviews and it looks like they had the same experience as me. I was there and there was another person in front of me. He was an older man and they asked if he had an appointment in Chinese. The man said no but just wanted to look. She lets him in. But when it was my turn and she asks me the same question I responded in English. I like to pretend I don't know Chinese just to see if they say something behind my back. She asks me what I was looking for and I said a watch. And asks what they sold. She responds with you need an appointment and proceeds to leave. Either the other guy looked like he had more money than me or they didn't want to serve me because I didn't speak Chinese. Either way, this was obvious racism and some really bad business practice. I ended up walking across the street to to another jeweler (Hing Wa) and got something there. Those guys didn't care how you dress or if you speak Chinese. read more

This place is a rip off. All the prices I saw on Omega, Panerai, Grand Seiko and others brands have taxes and additional fee included on the price Tag. When i asked them the price the saleswoman said that is the retail price everywhere. She was totally lying. I went online to the official watch website and showed her. She changed her word immediately to including taxes.. after I busted her... I asked for an omega James Bond watch and the saleswoman said i will bring it out from the back if you are buying it NOW. SO RUDE! Acting like I'm wasting her time. Please stay away from this place. read more

Amazing selection and customer service! I worked with salesperson, Jason, to find a new timepiece. Jason was wonderful to work with and very helpful and communicative throughout the process. I would definitely recommend anyone who is looking for a large selection of excellent watches to come and check them out and get a chance to work with Jason and the rest of their sales team. read more

Great customer service experience with Jason. Helpful and informative from beginning to the end. Had a nice selection of Seiko watches that I was interested in. Will definitely come back in the near future. read more

When I arrived, the door was locked. After a few minutes, a lady with finally noticed me and opened the door asking "What are you looking for" with a black face. Feels like "what do you want" was the subtext. I told her I wanted to look at watches. She asked what brand I was looking for. I then just mentioned several including Patek Philippe. The lady said we don't have any Patek Philippe available. Pretty much trying to say, "go away, we don't have anything for you". Then I asked "can I just browse around". She answered impatiently as if I was such a bother "we don't do browsing around here!" Wow!! I was like what a rejection! Almost feel like was I not enough for this place? But guess what, I have a case of hing-end watches including a Panerai purchased from their another location. Good job to the sale lady for being rude and hostile. read more

Had a fantastic time shopping for bridal jewelry at the store! The sales were super helpful and made the whole experience awesome!

Just wanted to thank the wonderful people at Chong Hing for helping me out with my Grand Seiko purchase. I was looking for the Taisetsu Spring Drive which is the Winter of GS's Seasons line. I called in and Cecilia did find one in stock and invited me to come by and check out the watch. I went in and within 10 minutes was given a great price for the watch and had everything adjusted to fit. The watch is beautiful and the staff at Chong Hing are amazing. Will definitely return to buy my next watch here! read more

I visited Chong Hing today looking for a particular Patek Phillipe watch. By the way if you haven't visited the place before, I recommend checking it out because they have many selections of name brand watches and jewelry available. Anyways, I had the pleasure to meet Cecilia, whom was very welcoming and provided great customer service. She was very patient with me and answered all the questions I had regarding the watch I wanted to purchase. I highly recommend asking for her. From past experiences with other Authorized Dealer watch shops, they really provided horrible customer service unless you bought from them previously or you "look" like you can afford to buy something in the store. Chong Hing is definitely an exception and they provided great customer service. I would definitely go back to Chong Hing in the future to buy other watches from them. read more

Fabulous jewellery store. Julie was just fantastic. She's very knowledgeable and helpful. It was a pleasure dealing with her.

If you're shopping at this jewelry store for a watch, you'll probably have a different experience than I did. I happened to be shopping for a wedding band, and it was a waste of time going here. Not only did they have very little selection, the place was dead as a doornail with about 10 sales people standing around. The sales lady was moderately nice, but looked bored and offered no suggestions or anything in the realm of customer service. My fiance told me they probably don't make to much on rings. I guess I was wrong to go to a jewelry store and expect to find, well, jewelry. read more

Angel is the best! They have all the brands, the store is beautiful, and I've purchased a lot of watches here. read more

Julie was great and helped me look at all the watches in the store. She made up for the bad experience I had the other day!

Unfortunate for me. I took my Omega Constellation model watch to get a battery last week. I was then told instead of just a battery I should get it repaired and serviced, cleaned. She also commented on the scratches on the band. I said how much? Reply 150.00 and you need to leave it for a week. Will that take care of it all ?? Yes. I went to pick it up. It had been cleaned inside and nothing on the outside. They didn't even clean the band. I was told if I wanted that it would be 200.00 dollars more. What happen to taking care of all. They need to explain what they will do exactly. Even though invoice stated oil/ clean. How do you determine oil and clean... they didn't list the battery but changed it. How do you know as a customer. Unless they explain things. I don't believe I will return. Customer service appears to lack. I guess this was my fault. read more

Very good experience at this company, especially sales specialist Julie. She helped me to special order IWC watch and transaction went so smooth. She was AWESOME! I'd recommend to anyone is interesting to buy luxury watches. read more

Initially, I left a bad review because I ran into some frustrations in ordering my fiance's watch that I was giving to him as a wedding present. They didn't have the watch we were looking for and an employee said she would call the company and get back to me but she didn't (she forgot). And I had to go back to order it. Then when I finally ordered it, they said it would take a month for it to get here bc the one that was in stock was sold while I was waiting for the employee's call. Then the watch came 5 weeks later. When I went to pick it up, I was told the watch guy leaves at 530 and I had to come back another day to get it resized, which I found very frustrating. But despite the frustrations, the reason why I'm leaving 4 stars is because of Annie Hong, Manager, and watch guy really came through for me. Annie made sure the manager knew how frustrated I was and got the ok to have the watch guy stay later. So today, I was able to get it resized past the time that the watch guy would normally have stayed till and my fiance is so happy with the watch. Right in time for the wedding! Honestly, I would have left with a sour taste in my mouth from my earlier experiences but thanks to Annie, the manager, and the watch guy, we are do happy. Thank you guys read more

horrible service you have to make appointment to enter . The store looks run down . Also ask the staff about a watch seem like they don't care or have no knowledge of watch i was asking about . I was looking at a grand seiko . I just left . They need to up date and remodel the store look like the 1990 decor . I went to Bhindi Jewelers in Glendale and purchase a snowflake letter stainless steel watch . read more

this place is horrible! like other reviews, If you don't not look the part of a certain type of customer they do not want to in the store or give bias service even after I spent money here. I don't think they would show the same respect and customer service if I looked the same as the employees in the store. I would never spend a dime hear again. I hope someone at corporate will read some of the reviews and do something about this. no way to run a business. read more

The showroom is stocked with great brands and pieces (including Patek and Omega) and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I really appreciate Julie, who helped me obtain a very hard to find Grand Seiko watch. She went the extra mile in finding it at another branch and having it sent overnight to the San Gabriel store. Julie is super friendly and even set the GMT function of the watch to Thai time after she learned that my family was from Thailand. Her service is top notch and I looking forward to working with her again in finding a great watch. Be sure to make an appointment before visiting them as they are being very safe with social distancing guidelines. read more

I just left this Jeweler store and wouldn't recommend anyone to come here. Cecilia is a very seasoned sales associate who does not know how to provide a decent experience to clients. I could care less if a sales associate has been there for 10-20 years. Let me walk you through my experience. I walked in and they asked my mother and I to walk up to a temperature check machine, normal for the fact we are in a pandemic. I saw my mom get pretty close to the machine and I asked if they wipe the machine down prior to clients arriving. Cecilia said no since we are all wearing masks. Does she not have the knowledge that the coronavirus can transfer through air or that the virus can stay on objects for hours? Then she rushes us the "wash our hands" when they only provide a sanitizer. As I asked to see their 18k gold necklaces/chains, they show me their selection. Cecilia gave me gloves, which was nice, however Cecilia was super short with me, and very rushed. I wanted a 21", but they only had 24". Cecilia complained how during the pandemic, they don't want client to try in jewelry, but she will put it on for me. I tried it on. She kept saying it looked nice and is the same length as my current gold necklace. She didn't even ask how I felt about it. I was actually very uncomfortable and wanted her to just take it off. Really, I wanted her out of my face. Cecilia gave me a discounted price, and then turned around to speak to another woman and the gave me another discount. Then a younger sale associate steps in, and says she picked up our phone call for our appointment. Her name was Rachel. I was calculating their discounts as I need to understand what the percentage of discount they are offering.. and with 15% or 20% off, they gave me the price that rounded up the the next $5. They told me their corporate only sells products in rounded numbers- right.......... whatever the case, I don't really care to stay much longer. I told Rachel I would think about the necklace and Cecilia walks over to grab the necklace and said, I need to clean the necklace since she asked to try it on. She said it with intentions for me to hear it. What kind of shit service is that? I don't care if we are in San Gabriel. I'm in a jewelry store that sells high end pieces... and that is the service they provide? Ridiculous and disgusting. So basically Cecilia told me they won't clean the temperature check machine, because people are wearing masks, but while she place a necklace around me neck, she makes it a point to say she needs to clean it because I tried it on. Clean BOTH items during this pandemic. The issue with going to these stores that are run by non corporate stores- They make up whatever discount/ policy/ regulation they want. They allow sales associate to say things that are not ran by the owners. It's just terrible. I'm never stepping foot in there again. read more
