I live in town. One of my watches had a battery die. Looked around talked to a couple places. And…read morethese guys were recommended. So I stopped in and dropped off my watch. They'd let me know. It would be a couple of days. Took my information. And I left my watch there. Two days later I get a phone call. Watch was back when I went in to pick it up. It was set current date current time. 20 bucks is a smoking deal for that.

I was visiting Aspen and when I was waiting in baggage claim I noticed the signage that there was a Oliver Smith Jeweler location above the Panerai shop on the Mall in Aspen! My wife and I went in and met with Emre, who was very knowledgable, low pressure and patient. This was my first substantial watch purchase and he was a great advisor. They had a nice pre-owned selection and I found 2023 watch I was looking for at a great price. He had the box and papers shipped next day air. Very, very happy with Oliver Smith Jewelers and I will be back!

My shopping experience at Betteridge aspen was terrible. It's funny because I've shopped at the…read moreBetteridge location in Vail which was lovely. This location was the exact opposite experience of my experience in Vail. The older gentleman salesperson spent the entire time name dropping, up selling and essentially trying to guess our worth rather than listen to what we wanted him to show us. We listened painstakingly to him talk about 8 carat earrings (no I wasn't shopping for 8 carat earrings unfortunately)... and his relationship with Tom Brady. Seriously!?! What do my husband or I have anything to do with Tom Brady? We eventually walked out when we could. Luckily we had a fabulous experience at Lugano diamonds nearby - where the sales staff seem like they truly care and more importantly listened to what I was asking to try on. Their store and selections were far more inviting and impressive.

I contacted Katherine LeGrand after seeing that her store did jewelry repair, and not only did she take care of the bow, she did not charge me.

I'm an avid five star giver, and while I do appreciate Ute, I had a balance of positive and…read morenegative experience. I found myself in a situation where I rented one of their bear cans and finished Four Pass Loop after hours. Theres no after-hours drop off or contact information. Not cool when you're renting gear and unknown things are bound to happen. Luckily, the bartender in the bar underneath the store was cool enough to return for me the next day, with a $30 dollar tip. What really takes off the star though is the pretentious and "too cool" vibe from the employees. Ain't nobody got time for that. Being kind and understanding is free.
