Shine Little Diamond - Watch Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

I was able to make an appointment at Shiny Little Diamond online for the same day to have my very loose engagement ring resized. I was super worried about losing it because it was so loose and they measured my finger and adjusted my ring within hours!! I dropped the ring off at 1.30pm and had it back by 5pm the same day and now it fits like a glove. Service was super friendly and quick and they sent me a quote via text before doing the work! The icing on the cake was they cleaned the ring too so not only does it fit perfectly now it's also as sparkly as it was the day I got it. Really really happy and will definitely go to them in the future. Thank you! read more

Shine Little Diamond - Watch Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Reasonably priced jewelry repair. Very good workmanship. Easy appointment and pickup process.

Excellent service~ Great communication, quick in response times, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. There were 2 loose trillion cut tanzanites that needed to be made into earrings. It needed to be classic, secure, and understated. There's a factory onsite. Timelines vary based on high and low seasons. There is a willingness to work within customer's needs. Pro-tip: -Make an appointment -Allot extra time to find street parking -I visited during a weekday before lunch and after commute times. Pro-tip: -Appointments are a must -street parking only (I have gone mid-week and usually between 1-3pm: no issues) -Edwin is a small business owner and makes all his creations by hand. Please, give him ample time to deliver your one of a kind creation; especially, before holidays such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Mother's Day. read more

Edwin took great care of my items. I got my necklace and watch fixed with a 1 business day turnaround.

Let me start by saying that Edwin was kind enough to take us on as a client when we came to him with a low-value project. That being said, we had a stressful experience and will not be going back. On top of the negative experience we had, we recently came to find out that the stones he placed, which he said were diamonds, are actually cubic zirconia. This was very upsetting to learn as we were quoted and charged for diamonds. Below is our full account of what happened. We found Shine Little Diamond on Yelp, and, from all the positive reviews, we thought it would be the perfect place to do a custom ring. At the time, we had a fashion jewelry ring that we wanted to replace the center stone with a sentimental pebble and the side stones with diamonds, with the goal to cast the ring in gold in the future. We were in a time crunch and Edwin told us it would be done before our deadline and then neglected to communicate with us when the timeline changed. In short: if you need to speak with him, make sure you contact him via appointment through his website. He was an unreliable communicator over the phone. Timeline: November 7, 2025: We set an appointment to meet with Edwin the next day to review our custom ring request. November 8, 2025: We met with Edwin and he told us the job might be challenging as the ring was not gold and a prong was already damaged, he quoted us $155 to complete the work, and estimated that it would be completed on November 15, 2025. We told him that we needed the ring by November 20, 2025 so the 15th would work. We agreed and handed him the ring. November 14, 2025: I call Edwin twice with no answer, I leave him a voicemail inquiring if the ring is still expected to be completed November 15, 2025. November 15, 2025: 12:36pm Edwin returns my call and says that the ring should be ready by 3pm, we say great we will come meet you at that time. 2:27pm I call to check in, and he says the previously damaged prong on the ring broke off (which to be clear was not Edwin's fault, it was in bad shape when we gave it to him) and he was going to need more time to repair it. I said okay, we will need the ring ASAP. He said it should be ready by November 17, 2025. This was the last time he answered any of my calls. November 17, 2025: I call Edwin with no answer, I leave him a voicemail inquiring if the ring is still expected to be completed today. No response. November 19, 2025: I call Edwin with no answer, I leave him a lengthy voicemail about how we urgently need the ring back and if he could please return our call with an estimated completion time. No response. November 21, 2025: I call Edwin with no answer, I again leave him a voicemail about how we urgently need the ring back and if he could please return our call with an estimated completion time. No response. November 22, 2025: I call Edwin twice with no answer, I leave urgent voicemails both times. No response. I finally realize that his phone is not the way to get a hold of him, and schedule the next available appointment on his website for November 24, 2025 (4 days after our deadline, 7 days after our last promise date, 9 days after our original estimated date) November 24, 2025: We meet with Edwin and he explains to us that we should have contacted him via website appointment and his phone is not a good way to get a hold of him, to which I said we had agreed on previous completion dates that you did not stick to. Is it not your job to update us with a new completion date after missing two? He explained that he was busy with higher value clients, and he took a chance on us given that our ring was damaged and not made of gold. This I cannot fault him for, and I appreciate that he did the work even though it was lower value work for him. We examined the ring, and the center stone and broken prong were set with epoxy, which was not ideal but I guess he was running out of options, so again I did not fault him for it. He charged us $150 ($5 off for our inconvenience) and we went our separate ways. March 3, 2026: The reason I am writing this review today is because we finally had the opportunity to take the ring to a different jeweler to get it recast in gold, and we found out that the stones on the side were not replaced as diamonds like we had agreed but were cubic zirconia. Shine little cubic zirconia shine. I'm not sure if those were the originals and Edwin didn't get the chance to ever replace them in his haste to meet our appointment (this is what I hope happened) or if he did replace them but used cubic zirconia instead of diamonds. Either way, it was an unhappy revelation and we wanted to share our experience. read more

Shine Little Diamond - The completed ring on November 24, 2025 - Watch Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Shine little Dimond went above and beyond my expectations. I have to admit after reading so many glowing reviews I thought it was too good to be true. I had be engagement ring resized from 6.5 to size 9 by another jeweler, but the ring was still the wrong size and they left multiple pits and imperfections. Took them over a month to resize and get the ring back to me. And they were very expensive. I took it to Shine Little Dimond where they measured me and found my perfect fit. He noticed the imperfections without me even mentioning them. He said he could easily resize it and completely replace the previous added white gold. I dropped it off at 4pm on Monday and just picked it up at 4pm Tuesday. And all for half the price of the last resizing. They are located in the mission but there is plenty of parking and I could not be happier with my ring. I will 100% be back and can't recommend them enough. Good to note they only take Venmo, no card. read more

Shine Little Diamond - White gold ring. Resized. - Watch Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Edwin was able to provide me with a same-day appointment for two jewelry repairs on 24K gold chains. He was friendly and honest about what he would do and completed the work within a few hours. I'm very happy to be able to wear these pieces again since they were purchased in Taiwan and I was hesitant to allow another jeweler to work on them. However, Edwin did a great job and I would definitely return for further jewelry-related projects. The lady at reception was also lovely and helped me put my jewelry on for me. Great service and quality all around. read more

To be clear, they get 5 stars for excellent work. It was really frustrating to call so many times after it was supposed to be done before i could get it back. read more

After seeing their positive yelp reviews, I booked an appointment with Shine Little Diamond to resize my wedding band and engagement ring (18k white gold, under 1.5mm wide, no detailing/tooling, going up 1.75 sizes). After my experience with them, I do not understand how they have 5 stars, and regret choosing them. When dropping off my rings, I asked for a quote, and the gentleman who took them in said he couldn't give me one and that his boss would have to get back to me. A day and half later I got a text that I could pick them up the next day and that it would be $350 per ring, $760 total. I looked around online and was advised that this was quite high, and asked them if the work had already been done as it seemed higher than I was seeing elsewhere. They did not respond to me until 11:15 pm, with a photo of the rings already cut open, saying they had to add material (yes, that's how you make a ring bigger) and that if they weren't already finished, he could ask the jeweler to put them back how they were. At that point I felt I didn't really have an option other than to go through with the job, as with my rings held hostage, they were free to do a subpar job putting them back how they were, since they knew they wouldn't be getting any money from me. I told them do go ahead and complete the work. Upon picking them up the next day, the quality of the job was not great. There was a visible pit on one of them that I could catch my fingernail in, and both repairs were plainly visible. The added in portions were not the same height as the original band, and the inner diameters were not smooth circles; they had angled off dips where too much material had been ground away from the edges of the added in section (so not something that would have already happened from normal wear and tear before I dropped them off). I messaged them about these errors and asked them to correct them as part of the price I had already paid, to which they agreed. When I picked them up a second time, I saw that they while they fixed the pit and smoothed out some of the height difference, the problems with the inner diameter my wedding band are still there, and my engagement band is wider than it is tall. He offered to undo all the work and put them back as they originally were, which I refused, as I do not trust them for a moment to not make them worse. The whole situation has been extremely stressful, and now I have a constant reminder of it on my hand for the rest of my life. I just wish I had gone somewhere else. read more

Great service and quick! I came here to get my engagement ring resized. I have an atypical engagement ring with an east west facing Marquee and I took it to various jewelry shops. This is the only one that felt confident in being able to resize my ring. The cost was a little above my price range around 200, but felt it was worth it since they were the only shop that could handle my unique ring. I also brought in a nose ring that was missing a diamond and they were able to add in a new diamond. Seriously looks brand new. Total cost was 150 for the nose ring. Both items took 2 full business days and After picking up my ring, I took it to a a reputable jewelry store to make sure that everything looked good and they were able to verify that the job was done nicely and nothing was mishandled. This shop really knows what it's doing! It's definitely in a shady location and the shop itself isn't really what I imagined, but it's just another data point that you can't judge a book by its cover. read more

Had a great experience here getting my ring reshaped! Great service and was done super quickly.

This review is long overdue. I had a great experience having my jewelry repaired here. I had a couple chains that had broken clasps and a bracelet given to me by my grandmother that I needed repaired. It was all done quickly and thoroughly. He was even kind enough to put in a gemstone in my granny's bracelet for me with no additional charge. Overall great service. I no longer use the chains and will probably come back to have them melted into a different piece of jewelry soon. Looking forward to working with him again. read more

Great experience! Messaged for a quote and communication was great. Took a ring in to be looked at and got the gem setting fixed super quickly and for a fair price. read more

Fixed and polished my silver ring quickly for an incredible price. I accidentally placed a ring in my back pocket while washing my hands, forgot about it and sat on it later. Won't do that again. I stopped by yesterday afternoon, dropped my ring off and picked it up an hour later. Polished and round again, amazing! One tip, the shop is usually appointment only. Edwin helped me out and was very nice, but I recommend making an appointment since that's how they usually operate. Very highly recommend this place. Thank you Edwin! read more

I brought my Omega watch to Shine Little Diamond after several disappointing experiences elsewhere. In the past, I had the battery replaced a couple of times, but each time the watch stopped working after just a month. When Shine Little Diamond opened it up, they immediately saw how dusty and dirty the inside was--it had clearly never received a proper service. They took the time to do a thorough, quality job, not just replacing the battery but carefully cleaning and servicing the watch. The best part? It only cost $50! It's now been five months, and the watch is still running beautifully. I couldn't be happier with the service and the value. Highly recommend Shine Little Diamond for anyone who wants expert care done right the first time. read more

Edwin is awesome affordable and does great work. I've been taking items to him for years now since he reset my engagement ring

They wanted $50 to replace a watch battery. Too much. They'll ask what brand and charge you accordingly which u don't think is fair.

This place has been so great with helping me to get stones taken out of various pieces of jewelry over the past year. Always gets job done very quickly and is super friendly. Highly recommend to check them out for any jewelry needs/projects read more

Truly miracle workers! I haven't seen my engagement ring look so clear and perfect since the day I got it. I am so, so happy they were able to make my rings look brand new before the big day. Amazing work! read more

Edwin, the owner and jewelry artist at SLD, truly saved me and my engagement ring. My ring features intricate, delicate prongs in an artistic design that was handcrafted in India, just before the pandemic. I needed the entire head/prongs/gallery rail structure repositioned and gently redesigned--something no other jeweler in San Francisco was willing to take on. Edwin immediately showed enthusiasm for the project. He listened attentively to my requests and *masterfully* reworked the entire clasp of my 3-carat diamond ring. Not only was the craftsmanship impeccable, but he also completed the job in less than two weeks. I am beyond grateful for his skill and professionalism. I look forward to working with Edwin again to design more pieces, as his technical expertise and artistic vision are unparalleled. As a side note, a bracelet he was wearing the other day caught my eye--one of his own designs. It was absolutely striking, with a style reminiscent of Buccellati! I highly recommend him - his store is right on the most vibrant streets of the Mission District, 24th st, near SVNess. Tip: I was able to use some of my own extra old gold jewelry for fixing my ring, so bring, that if you need extra material and want to recycle gold you already have. read more

Found this local shop online and brought in a charm that needed a new bail. Edwin was very polite on the phone and told me to come in person, which I did the same day. He added a bail I had already to the charm and it was ready the next day. He also fixed another broken chain on the spot for me. I really appreciate how easy and affordable this was! I feel lucky to have found Edwin as there are many jewelers and shops in SF who won't hesitate to overcharge you. Just make sure you go into Edwin's shop and not J&J next door. read more

Edwin was super nice, efficient, and friendly! I had sent a message to request for a repair of my necklace clasp that became loose overtime. I had brought in the necklace and the replacement clasp and he was able to fix it for me in less than 10 minutes and it didn't cost as much as I thought it would have! I paid him via Venmo. Thank you so much again, will be back in the future should I need any custom jewelry or repair :) read more

I agree with all of the previous reviews. Edwin's work is excellent. He repaired my wedding ring, replacing several small stones and then cleaning it until it sparked. People thought I had a new ring on! He did it all in a few days so that I could wear it to a big event. He is was very professional and listened carefully to the issues I had with the ring up to that point. He even made sure it still fit properly. We are grateful to him. read more

Edwin is the best jeweler I have ever dealt with. He is also one of the few people in the area that can actually work with platinum. I had him size up my wife's engagement ring and he also tightened down all the stones as it is a handmade ring and the original maker did not do the prongs correctly. He only used platinum to repair it (some jewelers use gold to repair platinum but that's not what they are supposed to do). He was very straight forward with what needed to be done and how much it would cost (very reasonable pricing). He was able to do all of this and polish the ring within the same day which is a crazy fast turn-around time. He is a master of his craft and totally made the ring better than the original craftsmen. I am very happy with the service he provided and I will be recommending him to anyone that needs jewelry work. Edwin is now the only jeweler I will use. read more

Shine Little Diamond - Sized up platinum ring from 5.25 to 6.75, adjusted the prongs and polished all in the same day. Absolutely stunning - Watch Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

I cannot rate them higher. I was quoted $563 from another location to take care of these earrings with posts that are too wide and are screws so it was painful to wear. This business was so helpful. Charged a very very reasonable price and was able to use a unique approach unlike these others businesses. Extremely convenient and was less than $50 compared to $563... everything about the service was incredible. And my earrings are comfortable to wear now but are still solid gold. read more

Edwin blew me away with kindness, customer service and craftsmanship. I have been holding on to a number of delicate (expensive) vintage pieces that needed repair and adjustment, some tricky to do. I was nervous taking them to someone I hadn't worked with before, and am so glad that I came here! The work is excellent, and there was clear communication throughout, including giving me a call to let me know exactly when everything would be ready for pickup. I will definitely be back! read more

I found Edwin on Yelp and less than 2hrs later I had my repaired necklace in hand! Very communicative over email to arrange a time and did the repair while I waited. Even had my rings cleaned at the same time. Important to note "by appointment only" which wasn't clear to me from the website. Even still, I was taken care of same day read more

Great work and so nice! I had a thin gold bracelet that was catching and pulling my clothes. Edwin was quick to respond to my inquiry and able to fix the issue within one hour. You can tell he loves his craft. read more

Fantastic customer service. Replaced a Swatch battery on a very old Swatch watch. When the battery died after only six months they replaced it at no charge. They also cleaned the watch inside and out. When I couldn't find parking they brought the watch to my car! You won't find better customer service than that. read more

45$ to fix a necklace with a missing ring on the clasp in 20 minutes ! Cash or venmo only. There was plenty of parking right in front of the store at 11am on a Wednesday. I messaged Edwin on yelp the night before and he quickly let me know that he could do a same day repair for reattaching the clasp to the chain by soldering on a ring between them. An older gentleman unlocked the door and a younger fellow was at the counter (assuming he's Edwin), he seemed to be the only one handling the jewelry. He recognized the my piece from the photos I sent over on yelp and got started on soldering right away. Super positive experience, would come again but hopefully won't need to return to repair anytime soon. read more

Fixed my bracelet clasp quickly. Easy to make appointment. Easy communication. Parking a bit tricky in the area so plan ahead of time.

Edwin is fantastic. For years I procrastinated getting my grandmother's jewelry repaired and resized because the shops downtown charge exorbitant prices and seem stuffy, pretentious and upright. But after inheriting some gold pieces from my late aunt and uncle I decided to do some research and found the great reviews of Shine Little Diamond encouraging -- especially since I live in the Mission! I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. Edwin has worked on several items now, some on the spot, and others within a week. He even re-engraved a small ring with a mysterious, faded letter and was able to change the initial in beautiful script! I plan to work with him in the future to transform some earrings into a new custom gemstone ring. Can't recommend him enough. Be sure to talk to him about music too - he's in a band and loves to catch live shows like I do. read more

Very happy with the replacement diamond I procured. They worked with me to rework the setting in an exiting ring and put a new diamond in. As a heads up they do not take credit card. read more

Great little shop! It was one of the few open on a Sunday and we are happy we found it. Quick and friendly service - my fiancé came in to get his rope chain and pendant fixed and it was ready and cleaned a few hours later! The fix totaled to $92.

I recently went back to shine little diamond to get my rings cleaned and I have fallen in love with my rings all over again. I just love when random people compliment my jewelry and I get to say it was customized exactly to my liking. I recently gave birth to my first baby girl and Edwin designed her fist baby earrings and we loved them! I really can't recommend him enough , he is talented and very professional read more

Edwin is my new favorite! I played myself and broke my beautiful hamsa necklace so I looked for a jeweler who could repair it and found Shine Little Diamond. I went to the shop, but when I got there I saw a sign that said "By Appointment Early". Edwin was super gracious and was able to accommodate me and I'm so thankful. Super reasonably priced, fast service, and informative. I hope I don't break any jewelry any time soon, but if I do, I know I'll go to Edwin. read more

Edwin is an ANGEL. I needed my ring sizing fixed after the jewelry next door did shady things with my ring. I accidentally called his shop to complain.

My engagement ring was just a smidge too big, and I spent the past few weeks worried about it slipping off. I chose Shine Little Diamond based off the reviews, and I was not disappointed. It can be anxiety-inducing leaving a precious and sentimental item, especially with mine being custom and one of a kind. But I was assured it would look like nothing ever happened- and that was the case! Edwin was able to almost tell what size I needed from the look on it on my finger, and was very kind and reassuring. I was able to get my ring back in an hour and a half! read more
