Most of the people in this family business are wonderful, hardworking, compassionate and honest. Because of that, I would recommend them. However, I did have an uncomfortable encounter with gemologist Larry who, in the span of a 5-10 minute jewelery sale worked several of his controversial social/political opinions in somehow. He said some stuff that I found to be offensive and far-fetched. This was very unprofessional If this had interaction had been my first with Foshee, I would have never returned. read more

They had my Rolex for 44 days I picked it up today and it does not work. I am very discouraged with this facility. Hopefully they will refund my money and I can send directly to Rolex. read more

I went in the shop to see if they would buy my grandfather clock and they said that they would have to see it first. They even offered to come out to the house. 10 o'clock was the appointment. I was there exactly at 10 o'clock. I stayed until 10:20 and I called the shop and they said they were on their way. I was in the yard raking leaves for about an hour nobody showed up. I called at 12 o'clock and they said they've already been out there. I guess they came early and I wasted 2 hours waiting on nobody to show up. That was my experience. read more

I've been going here for years and after today, i will not be going back. The past few times I've ignored the fact that they've been lazy and not calling when my jewelry is ready. Everytime i call, it's been ready without them informing me. I understand being busy but the customer service has gotten terrible. Whoever is working today made it seem like i was bothering her. Just rude and so much aggravation in her voice like she hates her job. You work at a jewelry store. Good luck keeping customers. read more

Extremely Disappointed Took a Navajo Indian piece of artwork necklace to Foshee's. There was a piece of wire sticking me in my neck every time I wore it. They said it would need to be restring. I left it with them, no rush. When I picked it up and began to look at it. There were pieces not matching symmetrically as it was when I brought it to them. It appeared a young child had strung it. Mr. Foshee said, no one would notice? Calling me NO ONE because I noticed. He had no intention to make it right. I was willing to pay more to have it done correctly. I guess they've lost my business. Just thought I'd share before anyone else had their jewelry messed up. They also put the sterling silver beads in a chemical that made them look worse and destroyed the 24 kt gold in the designs...so sad!!! I'm hoping Munchel's can fix their mess up!!! read more

What a nightmare. I will NEVER return to this place. Despite with their owners daughter's claims, they do horrible work! This ring was brought to them to resize in early August - nothing else, just a resize. The jeweler broke my ring and lost the baguettes on the side of the ring. Their jeweler Pam never bothered to call me to relay the fact the ring was broken! When I called and stopped, I was given multiple excuses as to what happened and what was taking place to correct it. First excuse - we ordered the diamonds to replace and are just waiting for them to arrive next week.We will have it to you next week. Second excuse - the diamonds arrived but we are still missing one, so it's my fault but we will have it done need xt week. Third excuse - I haven't had time to work on it, it should be next week. Fourth excuse - I can't get to it as we are short staffed. It'll be next week. Fifth excuse - the baguettes are hard to place, I may need to send it someplace else. Finally, today, over 2 months since dropping the ring off, I was told "My uncle said the diamonds just came in and it'll be ready next week." I blew up, picked up my ring from this horror. They may be in business for over 70 years as the snarky owner's daughter claimed, but not at because of her customer service. She commented the poor work on resizing was not the finished product - and you can clearly see how horrible a job they did. The worst part was the attitude that we were inconveniencing them by wanting this ring repaired and returned. The diamonds - and I have to hope they gave me real diamonds - will now need to be taken to a reputable jeweler to reset. This is the worst customer service ever. The topper was the daughter said that she refuses to pay for the work to correct the ring. She never offered to quickly fix it, only state I was badmouthing when speaking the truth on the situation. So see you in court - you broke it and refuse to fix it, you can pay for a legitimate jeweler to fix the shoddy work. Do not trust this business to fix anything, and do not entrust them with your jewelry. After 2 months waiting to get my birthday gift returned to me, I have a broken piece of jewelry from them. MORE BAD WORK! Foshee was also to tighten the diamonds on my wedding ring and charged over $200 for it. We were told it was done, and picked up the ring a few weeks ago. After the debacle with my ring mentioned above and the shoddy subpar work Foshee did, we went to Kay Jewelers and had my wedding ring inspected - the diamonds were not tightened what so ever and it'll be about $400 to correct what the inept Foshee jewelers did to it. So moral of this story - never give this place your business. We are so disappointed in not only the bad work but the lack of customer service. As the lady at Kay's put it, just because you're in business a long time doesn't mean you have return customers, it just means you've kept your doors open. read more

Went to Foshee Jeweler today to get my watch battery replaced and some links taken off, took less than 10 minutes!! Everyone was very nice and efficient. I had to sell some of my gold jewelry as well and the price was fair and the process was quick! I will definitely be coming here again. read more

Foshee Jewelers - The watch they fixed which is over 30 years old. - Jewelry Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

I have a watch I received as an anniversary gift over 20 years ago that I wear every day. I dropped it and broke off one of the hands. Foshee Jewelers was able to repair it quickly at a very reasonable price. They are the go to place for any watch or clock repair. read more

I will no longer come here for any of my jewelry or clock needs. Since the father is gone the kids just lost all decency. I can't in good faith leave my 5 stars standing. I've had 3 negative experiences within the last year. The last being this past week. They did a complete wreck job on my necklace which is delicate so I felt maybe it wasn't completely there fault then I brought a bracelet and same result. They were so rude about it! Left both pieces unwearable and terrible looking. Unwearable because they both are so rough not they cut me. I brought the issues up immediately each time and was told it's the best they can do. Most recently I brought in a watch for battery change and everyone was just plain rude. No welcome or acknowledgment when entering and it was I was bother them by coming in (same attitude last visit). I continued to come out of loyalty but I will no longer. read more

Got my watch battery serviced and everyone so friendly, Place was packed ! Best kept secret in Lakeland !

Amazing people and store, they helped me out with pricing my Gold nugget and diamond ring at a fair price. Will most definitely return for future purchase or selling! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

We spoke with Mr. Harry about buying jewelry in our possession, and he was kind, honest, and fair. After checking other places that were disinterested or lowballing, we decided that this place was going to be where we went for future jewelry selling needs. read more

Fantastic employees, less than 2 minutes to change the battery in my expensive watch. Always smiling!!!

Edmund was very professional and courteous. The transaction was quick and fair. We won't hesitate to go there again ibuh o

Amazing prices, but even more amazing people. I sell my silver to Edmond and he is always fair with me.

Did a clock repair. Reasonable price and fixed in a timely manner. Staff is friendly. Will use again.

Absolutely awesome place! I came in to get a ring resized that my boyfriend gave me last night for my birthday and they had it done in a matter of 15 min or less. I also decided to see if they had a new chain to put my dads ashes on and I ended up ordering the perfect chain that I wanted. Amazing visit! Amazing staff, they were very helpful and friendly! I would definitely recommend anyone go here! read more

Foshee Jewelers - Ring - Jewelry Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

These folks do a great job fixing all watches. There is a reason they have been at it all these years.

At Foshee I get treated like a member of their family. They take care and concern to even change a watch battery! They listen to what I need or want and they make recommendations based on those things I say! I won't go anywhere else for jewelry needs, repairs or wants but Foshee read more

Family owned and operated for 60+ years, in same location. When you walk in, they make you feel part of the family. Often, you will see Mr. Foshee himself sitting at his workbench examining/repairing watches. Harry will quickly envelope you with his wit and charm and his intimate knowledge of their high-end inventory. There are sufficient other salesfolk in the store to take care of everything from changing watch batteries to adding/removing links of watch bands, necklaces, ring sizes, etc. The majority of the floor space is covered with grandfather clocks - if you are in the market to purchase or repair a grandfather clock, this is the place. A hobby of Mr. Foshee also results in the availability to purchase small plants and self-watering planters of various colors. I enjoy looking at his collections at every visit, and occasionally take one or more plants home. read more

I lost the back of my Citizen Ecodrive watch and went in to Foshee to see if they could help me. They don't deal with Citizen directly any longer because of a bad experience but they suggested I contact Citizen directly and order the part, once it was received they would install it for me. They provided contact information for me, I ordered and received the part I needed and Foshee installed it for me at NO CHARGE! Really! I haven't had a need to use them recently, but they have moved my grandfather clock to two different addresses with no issues and if I have the need of a jeweler or watch repair again, they will be my first and ONLY CHOICE! Excellent customer service. read more

Nice friendly staff who knows what they are talking about. Had a couple watches repaired, great work.

We went in there to have jewelry fixed and they said they could not do it. Other jewelers have no problem doing it. They did not want to take the time to show us pieces. Big mistake as we were shopping for a small time jewelry. We will take our jewery to Munuchels fine jewelers from now on and make purchases there as well. read more

Foshee Jewelers is a family owned and operated business that has been here for decades. I purchased a nice Howard Miller wall clock here for my workplace last summer when we did a bit of redecorating, and Foshee gave an attractive discount off the Howard Miller MSRP. The clock had to be special-ordered and arrived when promised. The sales and service staff are all friendly and I would gladly shop here again. The shop isn't much to look at, but don't let that stop you from giving them a try. read more

My friend and I visited Foshee Jewelers recently and we were very impressed with the service, knowledge, and character of this company. We were immediately warmly greeted by several members of the staff. We found everyone to be highly knowledgeable and honest. Harout Keshishian, the Gemologist was especially helpful. He spent a great deal of time educating us about the jewelry and he encouraged, actually insisted that we seek other opinions, which we did. Everything that he told us was 100% correct. Buying or selling jewelry is a big decision and finding a jeweler who is trustworthy is unfortunately uncommon these days. Foshee Jewelers has definitely won my respect and adoration and I will definitely return to do business with this company. read more

I took my wife's grandmother's clock into Foshee to be repaired on January 30, 2014. The clock-maker/repairman said that it would be ready in three months. It was the perfect birthday gift for my wife: her departed grandmother's clock working again. On May 1st, I called and they said that they were just getting to it and it would be done, "very soon." June 1st: same story. Finally, my wife called and the older man from the commercials answered and said, "Ma'am, I'm sure we said it'd be six months before we got to it." When she said that we were told three months, he said, "i'm sure no one told you that." So, he basically called us liars. Take your business elsewhere. read more

This clock shop is the best! Mr Chris Foshee has even come to our home to repair our 1750 Grandfather Clock. Super knowedgeable and kind!

Recently went to Foshee for my daughter to get her engagement ring resized. The staff were professional and accommodating.

Foshee Jewelers was recommended to me by a certified gemologist in Virginia as a reliable place in Lakeland, Florida, where I could get jewelry evaluated. The gemologist was polite and professional as he evaluated multiple pieces for me, identifying the pieces of value. I had anticipated spending an hour getting the job done, but his knowledge of and years of experience dealing with gold, silver, gems, and watches meant he was able to evaluate everything very quickly. I would recommend Foshee Jewelers to others who need their jewelry evaluated or appraised. read more

I've done business with the Foshee's on multiple occasions and each time I received great service, honest appraisals and have been very satisfied with the money I received for jewelry that I've sold there. It is family owned and operated for over 61 years. I even found a one of a kind clock for my dad. I'll definitely continue to do business. Thanks, Clyde and Harry read more

He was to fix our grandfather clock. He came over, took the clock apart, took all the pieces with him. We placed numerous calls and he kept saying he was still working it. TWO YEARS passed and he was still working on it. We went down to his shop and he could NOT find any of our clock pieces. His shop was a disgusting mess. His ONLY response was laughter, telling us "too bad, I don't have time to fix it". TWO YEARS and that was his reply. He is worthless as a business man and PLEASE DO NOT waste your time doing business with him. Stay far far away!!!! Learn from others, go elsewhere! This man does not care about your items. read more

just went in today, was helped and they are so efficient. great vibes.

Extremely dishonest and rude. Refused to inspect a watch I bought from them after it stopped only a week after purchase. Stay away there are lots of other better places that value their customers. read more

Foshee's staff is very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. It's a comfort knowing they are here to help with repairs no matter how big or small. Thank you for your many years of service! read more

I took a cuckoo clock there for repair, they had the clock nearly 6 months and the clock is still not working properly. I was told to bring the clock back and there was no guarantee that it would be fixed and it could be 6 months before I get it back again. This is not good service and since the original owners are deceased the service at Foshee's is not only terrible but the attitude of the employees is very bad. I would not recommend them to anyone anymore. read more
