    Service requested was a battery change. Came back to pick my watch and the crown is completely detached.
    Nel R.

    Instead of requesting yelp to remove my negative review, I hope your business will attempt to take responsibility for your employee's mistake and unprofessionalism. It's the right thing to do. I came there for a battery repair and got out with a broken watch. I was just here last weekend to get my Aquaracer's battery replaced. When I came back, my watch's crown is already detached from the watch. The employee changing the batteries was telling me that it's broken as if it already was broken to begin with. Absolutely not. Initially, she was saying that the crown was too tight and that there were resins present. And then she changed that statement to: she only opened the back to change the battery. She didn't touch the crown. But didn't she just say earlier that the crown was too tight? Also, please tell me WHY the date that was originally set to the 6th (the correct date) was on the 13th when I came back. Which means the crown was fine because she was able to turn it to change the date until she broke it. I was still able to adjust the date and time earlier that day. Now the crown is completely detached. It just falls to the side. It won't even stick to the watch. When I saw my watch, I just felt like crying. It was my late grandfather's gift to me. I felt like $65 was too much for a battery, but I was thinking, as long as my watch is safe it's okay. Well it's not. My original worst fear was the back case getting scratched, but it came out worse. My watch is broken. What's even worse is that the employee showed absolutely no remorse, no accountability, tried twisting her words so many times. SO YES, do review your CCTV because if it actually shows you working on my watch, it will show the truth. The employee was asking me to leave my watch there because the technician was off that day and that it will be looked at first thing in the morning. I said I there's no way I'm leaving my watch there and that I'm not paying for any repairs. She replied okay and that she will just take out the battery that she had already put in. OH WOW. After ruining my perfectly working watch, she even had the audacity to say that. Their services are not cheap. The least they could do is hire competent people to care for other people's watches. Also, if that employee was not sure about what she's doing, she shouldn't have touched my watch. They even told me that they deal with aquaracers on a regular basis. I don't think there's an ounce of truth to this. If they do, this wouldn't have happened. Anyway, another girl stepped in and said that I can bring my watch back the next day and they will fix it free of charge. I brought my watch there because I thought that the business was reputable. I was wrong. I brought my watch to the Tag heuer boutique that same day because there is absolutely no way I'm letting them "fix" my watch. I will post an update once the diagnosis is done and once the price estimate for the repair is emailed to me. The manager said that it will take a few weeks since their repair center is in a different state. I will be emailing you the invoice that Tag Heuer sends me. I hope that you at least cover the expenses. If I can give a negative score, I would.

    Had a great first time buying experience with Chris, gave me great information and consultation. Would definitely recommend.

    I couldn't believe that this shop has been at Irvine Spectrum Center forever. Now I know where to go when I need batteries not only for my watch but for my car key. What's more is they have a sort of a reward program- you get a stamp on the card every time you purchase a battery; after few visits you get a free battery replacement. People here are ready to help and answer questions about watch battery replacement.

    Excellent friendly service! My guy had a ring stuck on his finger, and they tried everything they could to cut it off safely. They truly went the extra mile to help us, and we'll definitely be back for any watch or jewelry repair.

    Receipt had an extra $10 for each battery

    My fiancé began his ring search knowing almost nothing about diamonds but was willing to explore…read moreand learn. He visited several jewelers across OC, from large retailers to family owned stores and even some that were recommended by other friends/family but none compared to the genuine care and honest customer service he received from Kathy and Jenny here! I came with my fiancé on his first visit here to get sized and choose some shapes that I preferred. Kathy patiently walked us through sizing and explored different shapes with zero pressure and so much patience. We loved how relatable she was and how natural and genuine our convos went! When he returned on his own, Jenny took her time to educate him fully and showcased her expertise (being in the business for 30+ years) and made sure he truly understood every detail, not just the 4 C's, but things other stores never even mentioned so he could feel confident making such an important decision. They actually encouraged him to even take his time and check out other places to make sure he was confident in his decision. This kind of customer care made all the difference! I didn't see the ring until the proposal, and it was absolutely perfect! But what makes it even more meaningful is knowing how much thought, care, and intention went into choosing it and how much of that came from the guidance he received there. I really can't thank both Jenny and Kathy enough for making his experience so smooth and seamless! If you're starting your ring journey and feel overwhelmed, go to South Coast Jewelers. They don't just sell you a ring, they make you feel confident, excited, and taken care of which makes this kind of experience so much more priceless.

    Stopped by because my boyfriend and I were ring shopping! Didn't need to book an appointment and…read moreeveryone was super sweet and helpful. Gave us the entire breakdown regarding ring quality, cut, etc! They have both lab and mined diamonds! They are also custom jewelers so you can tell them what customizations you like!
