We were looking for a place to get links taken out of my husband's watch. The lady was able to help immediately and it took less than 10 mins. She was friendly and held a conversation while taking out the links. Will definitely come back in the future! read more

Had a couple pieces of jewelry that needed repair. Bill suggested an upgrade on my ring and to integrate my original diamond in a necklace that was a gift to my mom from my dad. He completed the work the next day and it turned out absolutely gorgeous. I love that now the necklace which was my dad's wedding ring also has my diamond blending everything together to form an extra special necklace. Would highly recommend this business they do great work and the staff is over the top friendly and helpful. read more

The jeweler here is amazing. Was told by another jeweler at a different store that my ring needed to be fixed because I had loose diamonds and I'd have to get it repaired. It didn't work out for me to leave my ring at the other jeweler so I brought it here to get it fixed. Once the jeweler looked at my ring he told me the other store was wrong and there is nothing wrong with my ring and all my stones looked great and secure. If you're looking for peace of mind and an honest jeweler you should come here. They genuinely want to help you and not just take your money. I will for sure be back!! read more

Bill Lerma is not simply a jeweler, he is an artist! I went to him with an idea for a birthday gift for my wife and his execution of my idea was better than I could have imagined. When I gave it to her, she was thrilled by the wonderful craftsmanship of her new bracelet. That is all due to Mr. Lerma's talent and vision. The display cases in the shop are filled with his beautiful imaginings. I highly recommend Creative Jewelry Works and will definitely be back. read more

It was a pleasure stopping in to get my watch battery replaced. I will go back for sure. Professional, friendly customer service.

I had an antique cocktail ring as an engagement ring. They designed diamond band to go with it. The band perfectly mimicked the odd shape of my ring. Thank you so much! read more

Bill did such a wonderful job at creating such a beautiful and unique custom ring for me. He was able to bring to life the ring I had imagined, only better than what I could dream up. I wanted a custom ring made in remembrance of my mom who passed in June. He was able to find her birthstone, alexandrite to accent her original center wedding band stone that was passed down to me. When I look at this ring I can imagine her being very pleased with it. I know she would have loved the way it came out. I could see her wearing it. I know feel like I have a piece of my mom with me wherever I go. Thank you Bill for your craftsmanship!! read more

I wanted to memorialize meeting an exceptional person in my life by having a brief 4-line poem of mine engraved on the back of a pocket watch as a gift to him. I met with Bill at Creative Jewelry Works to see if the poem would fit and he said it would. He then engraved it in about an hour, and it was beyond my expectations! The customer service was first class! When I presented the engraved watch to the receiver he was amazed and truly touched by the gift. If you have something special that you would like engraved, then you cannot go wrong entrusting it to Bill and Sue at Creative Jewelry Works! read more

So I walk in yesterday to this jewelry store I have spent money in and talked about highly of for years. Yesterday I walked in and wanted to know how much a gold and diamond watch would be worth. I did not need the money, I was mostly curious. Well, the man that owns the store came out and said it wasn't worth anything and I told him, "You told me 2 years ago, when I brought it in to be fixed, it would be over $300 to fix it and it was a high-end watch." He totally denied he ever said that and Yesterday, he blew me off very rudely, saying, "This watch isn't worth anything, maybe $199.00." I told him what he had said about the watch 2 years ago and if you are lucky maybe $299.00. I told him these are real diamonds. He shrugged his shoulders and walked away. I was so angry, hurt, and lied to, so when I walked out I told the lady, "See you in court for ripping me off to fix a $199 watch for over $300. I also told the woman sitting there, last year I spent $2,000 on a diamond to have set in my ring, and now I find out he is a liar and rude. So I finally figured out why he showed his true colors. I have purple hair and have lost so much weight, he didn't recognize me, so now I know how he treats other people that have on a Harley Davidson shirt, tuck in with black jeans and purple hair. I cannot say for sure, but I felt he was prejudiced thinking I was gay (from my mom stating that) and had purple hair. I came in with my roommate, who was on a walker, heard everything, and is my witness to how I was treated. I will never walk into his hideous store again. I would be careful if you are different looking and want to get an appraisal of anything in his nasty store and expect to be treated with respect. Never again. My business will go elsewhere and I suggest you do too. read more

My fiancé got my ring from JC Penny, and when we went to go get it resized, the woman at the JC Penny counter was so rude to us. I came to Creative Jewelry Works and they were nothing but kind!

Bill and his staff are so amazing. I bought a ring from there approximately 7 years ago. The ring is beautiful but started to show some wear. Took it in to bill and had it looked at. Since gold is soft my ring need some help. Bill took apart my ring and redid it just as my old ring was just beefier. I just picked it up and I was stunned to see my ring was so beautiful. He takes care of his customers ever that long out. Thank you creative jewelry for my beautiful ring read more

I went there years ago. I had purchased an antique diamond engagement ring and went there to have it sized. I know diamonds pretty well. They swapped out the diamond and put another recent diamond in. I did try to make a police report but I didn't have an assessment yet. The assessment works as a map for diamond so I couldn't file a report. They are honest and when I confronted them they just were sheepish about it. Don't go there. read more

I was looking for a gift and I couldn't be more pleased. Bill was so amazing and helpful and you could tell he takes pride in his work. I will definitely be going back. read more

I was completely blown away. I went in to get a ring fixed. And when I mean fixed it was in bad shape. To the point wasn't sure if it would be fixable. So I asked Bill there if he would take a look at it and he said he would do all he could to bring it back to original luster. He kept his promise and delivered me a beautiful ring I didn't expect to survive. Thank you a million times over. Such a great experience. Bill and his crew there are just fantastic. I would 1000 times over 100% recommend this amazing shop to fix anything. Thank you guys so much. Can't believe you guys made it happen. Still in complete shock. Thank you guys again. read more

The owner, Bill, created some beautiful custom wedding rings for my wife and I many years ago. They were looking a little beat up, so in preparation for our 37th wedding anniversary, I thought I would make a last-minute attempt to have it polished. I took it into Bill and expected a several day wait but Bill polished it up while I waited. It now shines like the day I first put it on. Thanks Creative Jewelry! read more

I just stopped in to this jeweler for the first time to diagnose and fix a battery issue with my Shinola watch. Bill found the issue, fixed it in less than five minutes, refused to take my money and wished me a very Merry Christmas with a warm smile. He mentioned that he has been in the business for 50 years and it shows. This place a true "gem" in the world of big box jewelry stores. I will definitely be back for custom pieces, his work displayed in the store was beautiful and the attention to quality and detail is something you just don't see anymore. I was very impressed!!

I got my first Nixon watch from a surf shop down in SoCal and came back to Fresno and I needed it adjusted. I found Creative Jewelry Works, walked in and felt very welcomed. Bill(the owner) hooked it up and made things so easy for me. He worked some Houdini magic and didn't even have to take a link off, the watch fits perfect now. I recommend this place 110%. On a side note I'll definitely be back in the future to buy some gifts for family. read more

Being that my fiancé and I are somewhat younger he was very patient with us and helpful in the deciding process. I will definitely be returning for my future husbands wedding band! read more

This site needs a button to show how much people recommend you not go somewhere. When I took my engagement ring in for resizing, the owner asked me if it was a promise ring. I don't understand how he felt that was right, I am proud of what that ring means and to him it was a joke. He was extremely rude the entire time and does not deserve any business. read more
