They were incredibly efficient from start to finish. No unnecessary waiting, no confusion -- just straightforward, knowledgeable service that made the entire process seamless. What really stood out was how quick they were without sacrificing quality. It's rare to find a place that respects your time and delivers great results, but they absolutely do. And on top of that, their pricing is super reasonable. In a space where things can easily feel overpriced, their affordability was a huge plus and honestly a breath of fresh air. If you're looking for a jeweler who is fast, reliable, and fairly priced, this is the place to go.

I have come to this jewelry store many times before, mostly because it is the closest to my home…read more But I will never ever come back. I brought my watch in because there was condensation inside. The jeweler asked me why I wore it in the shower or a swimming pool. I told him I didn't do either. In fact, I've never worn it in the shower or in any wet situation. He looked at me and said, " You definitely did!" I didn't feel like arguing with him, but I thought at that point that he was very rude to argue with me when I had told him explicitly that the watch has never gone under water. When I came to pick up the watch, he warned me again about not getting it wet. Had he not heard me before!? I then took a look at my watch and saw that there was a chip on the crystal. That chip was not there when I brought this watch to him. It is not just a little chip, it is bold and extremely obvious, and I definitely would've noticed it prior to me bringing it in. In fact, if I had noticed something like that before I would think that it was possible that even handwashing could have gotten condensation into the bezel. He immediately argued with me and said, "Of course it was there!" That was absolutely not true and he continued to argue with me in front of a store full of customers and employees. This man is extremely extremely rude. He told me that he was too old to be arguing with a woman like me. To that, I agreed. He IS old and extremely crotchety. I will never step foot in this place nor would I recommend it to any of my friends. I'd be willing to go 10 more miles from home as to avoid this man again. He embarrassed me in the store, he did not listen to me, and then he wrecked my beautiful watch. Sooooo bad for business to have this man working at this establishment, and even worse that he is allowed to interface with customers.

I also brought in a pair of beautiful diamond earrings that I was interested in perhaps trading in. The incredible woman who waited on me Jenous(Sp?) was incredible. She suggested that I might use the diamonds from the earrings to design a bracelet or ring. Fast forward...the few pieces I brought in for repair are now brilliantly restored to their original beauty. The diamond ring being designed for me is breathtakingly beautiful. Everyone in the store is knowledgeable, professional and want to be sure you are taken care of and pleased. The selection they have is stellar. They have customer service down to an incredible science. I highly recommend them. Thank you so much, Monaco Jewelers. Chelena Sotraidis

I have had exceptional experiences with Wilsons Jewelers, from start to finish. I am so impressed…read moreby the work Sam has done for me on several occasions, and I greatly appreciate his expertise. First and foremost, Sam took the time to listen to what I wanted done and offered thoughtful guidance. He is honest to the core, in that he will suggest what to spend your money on--wisely. He does not use the unethical sales tactic of up-selling as do some other jewelry retailers. On various occasions, I had shown him pieces of jewelry that I had inherited from my relatives. After careful observation, he communicated to me what pieces were worth redesigning or resetting, and then took the time to explain every facet of each project with which I had decided to proceed. Sam is a craftsman and has a keen eye for detail and precision, along with a vision and foresight of what the product will be upon completion. On one occasion, while coordinating a more complex project, he created an exact hard wax replica for me, along with a mathematical diagram for the stone setting, so that I would have complete comprehension of the finished work. I've dealt with many jewelers in the past, mostly on the East coast, and even the better ones rarely go to this extent. Sam takes great pride in his work and truly wants you to be happy. In that vein, Sam's work is unique because it is tailor-made for you, so you will not likely see any copycat pieces of his work in other jewelry stores where they often sell duplicate items. Since Sam does much custom work for many of his customers, he is selective, using only the finest grade of materials in the way of metals and stones. I am confident that the pieces Sam has designed for me will last for many decades to come, which is of utmost importance because they are timeless heirlooms that not only I hold close to my heart, but will ultimately leave to my children. Sam is a true professional and a man of integrity. The quality of his work is unsurpassed. He is wonderfully communicative and frank, and is highly knowledgeable from his many years of experience in the field. Sam keeps you posted and informed. He does the work in a very reasonable amount of time, considering the effort he puts forth with acquiring the materials needed and then constructing the particular piece. And, certainly worth mentioning, Sam remains reasonably priced in comparison to what other jewelers are charging, especially in today's market when the price of gold has significantly soared. Sam at is a good find, actually a great find, and I am delighted that a close relative had recommended him to me. I, in turn, and without hesitation, will recommend Wilsons Jewelers to others for their jewelry needs.
