My family has been going to Elmer's for decades. One of the only jewelry stores and watch repair shops in NELA that are still around. I had a vintage watch my dad left behind and I needed it restored to working order. They got it working again and cleaned it up nicely too. For the work they did on it it was quite affordable especially being a vintage piece. read more

I brought two pairs of broken eyeglasses into Elmer's Jewelry to be repaired at the recommendation of my Optometrist. I was skeptical that they could even be fixed. I picked them up just a few days later and they looked like brand new! Amazing! And at such a great price! I cannot recommend them more highly if you need a pair of eyeglasses repaired. read more

Quick Service, Great Value. Needed stone put back in ring that had fallen out and reshaping of ring.

These guys are great. I was originally going to go somewhere else with more reviews. I stopped by here on the way to farmers market from the post office. I had a bracelet that was made with very thin silver. It snapped while going into a rather tight pants pocket. These guys fixed it beautifully, and the price was right. They let me use a screwdriver to tighten my watch links. I then noticed that something was inside the watch shaking. The day I picked up my bracelet I asked about fixing the watch. He opened it up on the spot and I was out in 5 minutes with a fixed watch and a fixed bracelet. Would 100 percent go back for all jewelry repairs. read more

Came here to have my watch band resized, In and out in 5 mins. I recommend this jeweler.

Changed a few batteries for my watches here. Friendly owners reasonable prices and fast. Work done while you wait!

Discovered this local gem from a flyer found on my windshield! I appreciate this type of old school marketing because I typically ignore unsolicited spam emails and promos. Also - keep it local baby!!! My favorite nameplate necklace chain was snatched / clean break at the nameplate, and they fixed it in 10 minutes for an extremely reasonable price. Very clean and covid safe environment too. I'll be back for sure with other jewelry repair needs, in addition to fixing a few eyeglass frames that have loose screws and need to be reshaped! Thank you for your awesome service!!!! read more

My watch needed a new battery. I found this place close to me. I was shocked how reasonable and quick they were! I would go back. If you are in Highland Park this is a good choice. read more

I had a locket that would no longer close. I came in on a Monday afternoon with two other customers in the shop. I waited less than 2 minutes after walking in before being seen. Juan (the owner I'm assuming) was attentive when I described how it wasn't closing. He went into the back of his shop and within minutes the locket was fixed. His expert eye, swiftness, and kindness is not missed. I can not recommend Juan's attention to detail enough. read more

Hate writing this review.. I've been coming here for years for smaller jobs. Recently discovered a loose stone in my ring and brought it here for them to fix. I got back a ring that looked different than when I went in... when I got the ring back I tried to explain that they had changed the design and they denied it. Today I went in with a photo of what the ring used to look like compared to how it is now and despite having photographic evidence of the change they still argued with me.. I was not there to argue but rather to have my ring changed back to how it used to look. The guy said he would "chop off the extra gold" but that it would be less sturdy.. which did not seem like the right attitude. They made it lopsided and crooked. My ring was pretty sturdy for the 7 years that I've had it and their approach was all wrong. Realizing they were not willing to even be open to their mistake I just asked for my ring back. I didn't want it to be messed up further. At that point the guys asked me how much I paid for their service, I said $60 and he quickly just gave me money stating that his service is guaranteed. So, yeah I got my money back but now I have a ring that i have to take elsewhere. I hope they can fix their attitude.. the worst encounter I've ever had with them. read more

Fixed my bracket on my chain within 10 minutes and was super friendly. Would recommend to anyone I know!

My Dad went to get his chain fixed because it was broken in the middle of the chain. On the locket it said 14 k gold and said Italy on the back. Meaning it was made in Italy with fine workmanship. When my dad went to pick it up it looked fix where it was broken and he was on his way to catch his bus. When he got back home he realized the locket was switched out. It no longer said Italy. It was not his original locket. The jeweler replaced it with a dummy locket. My Dad never went to confront the jeweler because he felt it they would deny it and he cannot prove it. I'd be very careful going to this jeweler and that they don't switch out your stuff. I don't typically do negative reviews but I don't want this happening to good people either. Hopefully this jeweler stops taking advantage of people. read more

Had a watch battery replacement that was very reasonable. I also had a stone replaced on a ring also very reasonable. Brought another watch here and they checked it out without a charge before telling me it wasn't worth the repair. read more

I have an sports watch with an odd strap which needed to be replaced. The owner gave me all the options and scenarios that come with me not getting the replacement from the manufacturer. I requested that they do their best. It came out awesome! Their band suggestion saved me a tremendous amount of money as well as looking better than the original. Kudos. I've been coming here for years and will continue to do so. read more

I've gone to them for repairs several times. They have done what I've asked every time and for a really reasonable price. I am very pleased with their work. read more

I get my watches (they can work with Rolex, Cartier, etc. among others) resized and tuned here. Also had them fix my gold jewelry for an extremely reasonable price. Hoping they never get priced out of this rapidly gentrifying neighborhood. read more

My wristwatch's battery took less time for the horologist to replace than it took me to write up this review. For only $3 for the service and battery, Elmer's cannot be beat. read more

I had a pile of watches that needed new batteries and one with a broken strap. The person who helped me was really helpful and friendly. In ten minutes, the batteries were all replaced. The watch strap was for a swatch that takes a particular band; he said he could cut one to fit, but it would be better if I ordered one that worked and brought it in for him to replace. I appreciated his honesty and came home and ordered a band. The batteries were the lowest price I have paid for batteries, and all of the watches work perfectly now. read more

My first time here and I was in and out on a battery replacement for my watch which btw he set to the correct time before handing it back to me. I also brought some jewelry of which stones were missing and he made several suggestions to fit my budget. He was able to order exactly what I wanted customed after he gave me a guide to help me choose my preferences. That was very helpful because I knew what I wanted but didn't know how to go about the piece. Place was clean and he spoke in a professional manner. I will definitely bring in other pieces that need TLC. read more

This place is fantastic! Reasonable prices and great service. A gem to have in the neighborhood.

I took 1baby bracelet and 2 anklets to get fixed and he did a terrible job on the baby bracelet and one of my anklets he cut a piece off without me requesting it and now it doesn't even fit , and it's 18 karat gold and did not even return the pieces he cut off .. super bad service . Do not recommend this place . I am so upset read more

I had several pieces of jewelry that were long overdue for repair. We're talking over 30 years. I went to Elmer's to see if they could do the repairs and after they reviewed each piece, they were willing to do so for a very affordable price. I was a bit reluctant to leave my jewelry because I wasn't given a receipt. My jewelry had more sentimental value than anything so I was quite apprehensive. They said it would be ready the next day. When I came to pick up my jewelry, not only were they repaired perfectly, but they also cleaned them to perfection! The gold was polished as clean as the first day I got them! What was even more amazing, was one piece wasn't quite ready, but I was allowed to take the other four pieces he fixed without having to pay him. He said I could pay when I picked up the last piece. How awesome is that? You can't get anymore honest or trustworthy. And here I was worried that I didn't get a receipt?! I ended up bringing in two more pieces of jewelry he fixed within 10 minutes! I love this place and I am so happy they are down the street from me. They have been in business for over 35 years and it shows! read more

Fast and efficient. The man doesn't mess around. Very affordable. Can be tricky parking though

STAY AWAY!! If you value anything about your jewelry and expect a level of integrity, stay as far away from this place as possible. I just want to say that my first experience with Elmer's was that this place was great. We took my engagement ring and had it sized down; they called within 30 minutes and charged us $20. It was a perfect fit and wonderful experience. Sadly, I made a huge mistake by returning to repair some items I'd been holding onto for a while that needed attention. I took two stretch bracelets to be restrung - one had snapped and the other was so stretched out it no longer stayed on my wrist. I also had some green peridot stones which had fallen out of their earring holders years before that I wanted to have set in white gold. I dropped my jewelry off, but unfortunately it wasn't ready before my husband and I were set to relocate, so I had my mom pick it up for me. When I finally reunited with my items, I was shocked at what I found. The two stretch bracelets barely fit, and the earrings were set into white gold backings that would only fit a baby. Both of the bracelets hold sentimental value as they were gifts from relatives and cannot be replaced. To my surprise my rhinestone bracelet barely went over my wrist, though it once fit beautifully. I also noticed something odd. The bracelet which consisted of an "XOXO" rhinestone sequence now appeared to have two x's touching. I couldn't believe that a jeweler would return jewelry with missing pieces so I chalked it up to a faulty memory. But now, 2 years later I finally found this bracelet in a different color and I confirmed two things: the bracelet comes with 18 pieces, not 17, and the XOXO sequence continues without 2 of the same letter touching itself. I bet someone that one of those 'O's would make a pretty pendant on its own, huh? I don't have many regrets in life but taking my jewelry to Elmer's for repair that fateful day was a decision I will likely regret for the rest of my life. I can't look at these pieces without remembering what happened. I can't even wear them !!! My mom was kind enough to take my earrings to her jeweler, Jack in the Eagle Rock Plaza and no thanks to Elmers, I absolutely adore my peridot white gold earrings. I read Lori's post below and it sounds like they stole her father's Italian locket. Who the f does that?! Unless you wanna pawn your wedding rings because it looks like they have a ton of those, turn around before you enter this establishment. And honestly they probably screw people there too giving them some fake @$$ ring in exchange for cash money. Biggest mistake of my life coming here !! Don't make the same mistake !! Run !! read more

Loved it! My ring needed to be reshaped after six years of continuous wear and no maintainace. I just asked he lay one of the hearts I just hapoened to walk by and saw they did sizing. and saw a beautiful ring. Come to find they have a financing plan and low prices. read more

Poor service. Repaired 3 gold chains for my son and they all broke within a week. Never again

They screwed me with lying to me that a ring I took to check if the rings black diamond was real the owner said it wasn't he touched the diamond tester on the gold itself. I take a bit of blame cause I could've taken it elsewhere and get my money's worth. Long story short I ended up selling it to them for a small amount of $20..... what happened to all the honest people. Karma is a bitch!!!!!!! read more

After calling various optometrist and eyeglass frame businesses who could not repair the broken arm of my eyeglasses but would be more than happy to sell me a entirely new pair I found Elmer's. My glasses were repaired in an hour at a very reasonable price. Elmer's Jewelry is one of those old school businesses who have managed to stay open in spite of the colonization of this particular strip of Figueroa. I love that there are still places that don't play into our throw away culture and I hope people understand why the loss of these little gems is so disheartening. Now, does anyone know of a good cobbler in the area? read more
