Wonderful service! The pin on my very old Movado watch recently came out. Prior to this time, I had it fixed a few weeks ago, at another local jeweler. I was frustrated it lasted only a few weeks, so I thought I would try another jeweler. I was immediately greeted when I walked in. My watch fixed within 5 minutes and I was not charged for the service. This kind gesture was a surprise, but greatly appreciated. While my watch was being repaired I had the opportunity to browse and the jewelry was beautiful. I will definately return to Flaherty! read more

Very nice and friendly staff. Many unique jewelry pieces. We were only there to change a couple watch batteries. Unlike other places that price differently based on brand, Flaherty did not and I really appreciated that. We were in and out within 10 mins. Would highly recommend! read more

I am disappointed with the my overall experience here. I was unhappy with the IMO inconsistent/irregular shape, size of the claw prongs and the stone gap, I sought repair quotes with two other jewelers which quoted me ~$200 to fix the brand new ring. After speaking with the owner I knew we were just never going to be on the same page about the quality. So agreed to them ordering a replacement setting without them setting it. Once I was told by two other jewelers I visited in person, about their opinion the prongs, I emailed again to tell them just to cancel the order and to initiate a return. I got a notification that my email was blocked. I tried another email, same blocked message. So while I was still working with them, I received notices my messages were blocked, I def do hope it was an unfortunate coincidence. Thankfully we returned the purchase with another employee. Unfortunately my personal overall experience was just a load of wasted time full of disappointment. read more

Excellent experience! Everyone we encountered was very helpful, professional and did not pressure my fiancé or myself into anything. Katie, the owner, was very pleasant and easy to work with. She is very knowledgeable and is a certified gemologist. She helped us pick out a stone and setting. She ordered several stones for us to review and select the one we liked. Katie also provided an appraisal for insurance purposes. In addition, after my fiancé wore the ring for a couple of weeks, it was actually slightly too large on her finger, so they exchanged the setting for a smaller size with no problem at all. I will definitely return to Flaherty in the future. read more

I spent three days wearing my Tag Heuer watch with a dead battery in it (guess that explains why it was always 12:37) before I noticed. I ended up getting a Seiko Solar so I didn't have to deal with dead batteries anymore, but I needed to have some links removed. I figured, while I was getting the links removed I might as well get a new battery for my Tag too - just in case I need a backup watch. Yelp did not let me down! I walked into Flaherty Jewelers at 10:30 am on July 5th. There were two customers there already being helped. The two ladies greeted me and said they would be with me as soon as they could. This alone gets a positive rating of multiple stars! Finally it was my turn. The service was quick, friendly, and super helpful. My links were removed and the battery was changed quickly. I'm going to guess the woman who helped me was one of the owners. She was so kind and welcoming. Chatting with her was like chatting with a friend. I had to return to get some of the links adjusted because my wrist is really skinny and the clasp was hitting my bones in an awkward way. The same woman helped me and took her time to make sure the fit was comfortable. Amazing service!!! I think I might need to return to have just one more link removed because it's still very loose, but that has nothing to do with great service I received and am looking forward to again. OH - while waiting, I had a chance to look around at all the beautiful jewelry. I've got a good wish list for hubs (hint hint honey)! read more

First time visit today for a watch battery replacement. Was greeted upon entering the store and she changed the battery in 5 minutes. Used the $5 off Yelp check in so it only cost $5 for the new battery. We have been going to Persin and Robins for a few years and think we will start going to Flaherty's first. read more

The very best, most reasonable jeweler in the northwest suburbs. Kate and Team at Flaherty jewelers helped me most recently redesign my wedding ring to incorporate stones from another ring of significant sentimental value. The outcome exceeded my expectations! The craftsmanship and quality of the work for the price was unbelievable! Flaherty is the place to go! Kate is the most knowledgeable, and most tenured certified gemologist in the area and it shows! Her empathy and understanding make this place a true gem! Thank you for all you have done Kate and Team! read more

I went to Flaherty Jewelers to look at getting a piece of my Mother's old jewelry modified to wear on a neck chain that I have after she recently passed away so I could have something of hers with me at all times. Katie Flaherty listened to what I wanted to do and figured out a way to make this a reality with some custom work. Not only is Katie an awesome jewelry craftsman but is also a special person. She understood what I had recently been through and when I asked her how much I owed her for her efforts, she said nothing. I told her she was making me feel guilty and she said " what are you Irish or something, this is the least I could do in your Mom's memory". Brought a tear to my eye. Flaherty's is a special place and Katie is a wonderful person! This is the type of business that everyone should frequent when they have a need for anything jewelry related. read more

Went here to get my battery replaced in my watch, and it took only 7 min! I would recommend if you are in the area. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is because I had to go back to the store because I noticed they didnt clamp down the back of my watch properly. read more

This place is by far the BEST jewelry store I have ever purchased at. The selection they display is only surpassed by the VERY Reasonable prices they offer. The staff is friendly and above and beyond helpful. And to think, it's right here in Arlington Heights. BOTH my wife and I LOVE this place. read more

I took a watch there to have it engraved. Even though I printed out the words exactly how I wanted it, they misspelled the engraving. I was told the engraving would be free, however I felt the watch was ruined and all I received was a shrug ("not my problem" attitude). On another visit, I purchased a ring for my daughter and asked if I could clean my wedding ring while I made my purchase. Once the purchase was complete, the person serving me went to help another customer and left my ring in the polisher and I couldn't get his attention. Finally another staff member helped me. Both times I dealt with a tall balding man - wish I knew his name. Won't go back because of his terrible customer service. read more

I've shopped at Flaherty's in the past and they were always helpful and pleasant. Walked in with my husband on my 25th anniversary to buy a diamond ring and we couldn't even get anyone to look us in the eyes. The young girl there pointed to the cabinet and said here are the diamonds. We walked next door and dropped 5K at Mitchell's. read more

I have only gone here for repairs. Service is excellent. Several years ago, I bought an antique gold, ruby and diamond ring on ebay to replace my mom's engagement ring that was stolen from her while she was in the hospital. This ring is vintage and almost identical to my mom's, which she had wanted to leave to me. However, to my disappointment, every year or so one of the small side diamonds would come loose and fall off as the prongs were worn down. Over the last couple of years, Flaherty's replaced two of the side stones and strengthened those prongs but when I lost another side stone a few months ago, their jeweler recommended redoing all the gold prongs which was $$ but well worth it. I picked up the ring this week and it's beautiful with new prongs securely holding all the stones. I am very happy with the repair on this ring and hope to wear it for many years to come. read more

Flaherty Jewelers has been my first choice for jewelry for years. They constantly are bringing new and fun jewelry lines into the store that make great gifts for all of my family and friends! read more

My gram passed a few months ago and it was very hard on me. She gave me a beautiful cross with my birthstone in it 20 years ago and it had broken. The top of the cross snapped off the body of it, and the stone in the middle was loose. I took it to Flaherty and they made it look like new! I was so happy with it. They also fixed a ring that had bent into an oval. They did great repairs and the associates are very sweet. Not overly expensive either. They are my new jeweler of choice! read more
