I never write bad reviews but I would NOT recommend David Reynolds Jewelry based on my experience…read moreand wish I knew their unprofessionalism before going in. I came in to have my rings resized and soldered together. On my first visit I didn't realize the work would take about a week, and since I had upcoming travel, I came back to drop the rings off on a second visit so there would be enough time. On that second visit I was quoted roughly $100 more than I'd been quoted a couple of weeks earlier for the exact same services, with no explanation for the increase. I was told it would take a week. A week later I called to check on my rings and was told it would be at least another week -- even though I had specifically dropped them off early because of my travel dates, which I'd made clear. On the phone, they acknowledged their mistake and offered a discount to make it right, but the "discount" would have been applied to the already-inflated second price, so it didn't amount to much. When I came in at the one-week mark to pick up my rings, no work had been done to them at all, and no one even mentioned the discount they had promised over the phone. On top of that, throughout both visits I felt very rushed. They didn't even size my fingers for the resize when I initially came in, and they forgot to note the soldering on my receipt -- I had to go back in person the day I dropped it off to confirm it was included, which it had not been. At that point I left with my rings and no services performed, because I simply didn't trust them to handle the job. Between the pricing inconsistency, the repeated delays, the unfulfilled promise, and the disorganized and rushed service, I would not recommend this jeweler.

Darrell truly brought my vision to life. I wanted to incorporate my mom's diamond into an…read moreengagement ring for my now fiancée, and I had a very specific vision for how I wanted it to look. From multiple in-person meetings to countless text messages, Darrell was incredibly patient, attentive, and committed to getting every detail just right. Together we refined the 3D model until it was perfect, and the finished ring exceeded anything I could have imagined. The craftsmanship, quality, and attention to detail are absolutely exceptional. More importantly, Darrell made what could have been a stressful process feel exciting and personal. He genuinely cared about creating something meaningful, and it shows in the final product. I can't recommend Darrell and the entire team enough. If you're looking for someone who will listen, care about your vision, and create a truly one-of-a-kind piece, this is the place. Thank you for helping create such a special ring and a memory that my fiancée and I will cherish forever.

I am an avid vintage and antique watch collector and Strickland Vintage Watches has some stunningly…read morebeautiful and rare watches for sale, but I have a couple problems with them and their business. The first problem I have with them is that their watches are INSANELY over priced. This company does a lot of business on eBay and that is where I first found out about them because I was always seeing their watches for sale since eBay is where I get the majority of my watches from. Well, I noticed that they had some incredible watches so I checked out all the items they had for sale and I noticed that they were selling two watches that were identical to two watches that I had. The only difference between my watches and the watches they were selling is that one watch I paid $150 for they were selling for $1700 and the other watch that I paid $200 for they were selling for $850. When I saw this I was blown away, I thought "Are my watches really worth that much?". So I sent them a friendly message asking them what made the watches so valuable and and I never got a response. After that, I thought that they might have missed the first message so I sent them another message a couple weeks later saying basically the same thing and once again, I got no response. I was kind of irritated because of there blatant attempts to ignore my inquiries, but I dropped it for the time being. Once they ignored me I began to do my own research on the validity of their prices and that is when I found out that this company sells watches for appallingly inflated prices. When comparing their watches to other watches that have sold on eBay that were identical to the ones they were selling, I found that they sold watches for five to ten times what they are actually worth, and the sad part is that people actually bought them even though they could have got the same watch for a fraction of the price. The second problem I have with this company is how rude they are. Like I said previously, they blatantly ignored me on ebay but that isn't even the worst part. A couple months later after I had found out what a scam this company is, I found their Facebook and liked their page because like I said before, they do have some amazingly beautiful watches for sale and I do enjoy looking at them even though they are over priced. Well one day I decided to publicly call them out on their dishonest business practices since they had ignored my attempts to ask them about it in private. They had posted a picture of a watch and this is what I commented. "Don't get me wrong, you guys have amazingly beautiful watches, but why are all of your watches so overpriced? This watch goes on ebay for around $150 - $300 depending on condition, $1295 is insane. I'm not trying to be rude, so please don't take it that way, I just honestly want to know why your watches are so expensive compared to other watches that are identical" Here is a link to the picture that I commented on. You can follow their link and see the price and then look on ebay for yourself and you will see what I am talking about. (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=485583291531855&set=a.485583211531863.1073741883.167742863315901&type=1&theater) Anyway, after I commented that, instead of private messaging me, or commenting back with an honest answer, they deleted my comment and blocked me from their page so I couldn't comment on anything ever again. To me, this shows what kind of business Strickland Vintage Watches is. They know that they overprice watches and they don't want people to know that. They are trying to prey on people who don't know what to pay and that is incredibly dishonest. Stay away from this business, if they are selling a watch that you like, check on ebay for it first, I guarantee you can find the same watch for way cheaper.

I recently had the pleasure of conducting business with Bill Strickland of Strickland Vintage…read moreWatches. Bill has an attention to detail that he exudes throughout his business and it shines through each vintage timepiece he offers. Bill prides himself working with and understanding artists, but I would most certainly say that he, as well as the whole Strickland team, are artists- appreciating each style of watch in its own right and producing incredible photography highlighting not only the watch, but also the human interaction with timekeeping. It's all very beautiful. Strickland Vintage Watches as a whole was very patient in dealing with me, and overly kind. I can also appreciate the old-school "taking a client out to lunch" thing. It's a great touch for the local folks that are looking for a vintage timepiece. I cannot recommend them enough.

My wonderful wife and I were on a staycation and checked out of the hotel. On the drive to our next destination she suddenly noticed and exclaimed, my diamond is missing! We discussed the myriad of possible places it could have been lost like coffee shops, parking lots, parks, the hotel, etc. We discussed how we might go back to the original shop in NYC from 35 years ago and buy another one! On a whim, I called the hotel. They looked for it and let us know, hours later they couldn't find it. Hey, stuff happens. We are still happily married! The next day, the phone rang! Their maintenance man had found the stone! Long story short, we got it back, I slipped him some cash and wrote a sincere thank you letter to corporate. Off to Johnston Jewelers we went! Joyce was wonderful, explained the process, we met with a jeweler, agreed on the plan, got our aged rings resized and resurfaced, and had a stronger diamond mounting installed! Woohoo! It's beautiful and looks amazing! Jean helped when we picked up our rings. It was so much fun! Married life is good with Johnston Jewelers!
