We found this location on TikTok we are from Joliet & drove over an hour just to come to this location, & it was definitely worth the traffic thank you Lucy for being so sweet, & super helpful read more

I went to this place to get a new battery put in my Movado watch. This was the first time my watch has ever gotten serviced. The lady that helped me told me that the person that would service the watch was not in and would it would take a couple of days. A few days later they call me and tell me that the watch isn't working with the new battery. I thought it was weird that it wasn't working since it was before the battery dies. So I took it to the Swap o Rama flea market and the gentleman there opened the watch and told me that they bent a piece that holds the battery in place. He said instead of removing the piece probably by removing the screws they tried to pry it out and in turn scratching the pieces and bending the piece. So he ended up ordering the replacement parts and fixed it for me. I wouldn't recommend this place. If you do happen to do business here be very careful because if they are doing this type of work, I can imagine where else they're cutting corners or deceiving customers. Whether it's with watches or gold jewelry that they sell or buy. I mean, I got my watch fixed at a flea market for God sakes. read more

My mother bought a pair of hoops from this store. I did not even get to wear them. As I tried to unhook the lock, I noticed that the earring had slightly bent out of shape because the earring was so thin for the lock. I was mortified that my mother had paid $350 for this gold jewelry that was very light in weight and flimsy for the lock. I went to the store with my mother, who has dementia BTW, and did not understand their no return policy. They falsely insisted that I had worn the earring which I had not. After arguing with them, they said they would repair them but at a cost. I did not accept this fix, so they gave me a credit for $150 but said that they would order other hoops and would not charge anything extra. The implication was that the replacements would be at the same price as the original $350. The replacements were just as flimsy and unattractive. They were unacceptable and they would not issue a credit for the full amount or return the money spent. These people are unethical, liars, sell cheap jewelry at exorbitant prices. Buyer beware. read more

This jewelry place is a total rip off. I went in a while back (before pandemic) to see how much I could get for my gold and person just took a couple hundreds for me to take and sign the waiver fast. Felt bothered when I ask simple basic questions and of course he did because he just wanted to rip me off out of my gold knowing good and well that all the gold I gave them was so heavy (which by the way they never show me the weight in scale) it was worth so so much more than what they were offering. Making a business out of ripping off young customers that probably/most likely have no clue and take advantage of that is so low and business like this one make me sad. My gold sold for more than double what that placed had offered and never again will I purchase from people like them. read more

"Torres Omar Jewelers Services with over 25 yrs of experience ,Expert Jewelry Repair, Alteration and Restoration" That is right off of their website. *Read their reviews and most of their 1 stars come from a poor work job/ rushed job. Both on google and yelp. I went in on 12/18/19 with this necklace and asked them if they would be able to mend it. The necklace was broken in a perfectly vertical. I called them 12/20/19 to ask about a text I was supposed to receive and they informed me it was ready. Initially they told me it wouldn't be done until after the New Years. Completely understandable, so I was a bit shocked it only took a day and a half. Boy, when I got there and saw the end result I was blown away. The lady handing me the necklace didn't even want to give it to me because the job looked like a middle school child mended it in their home-eco class. I was speechless. There was discoloration all over the back. It looked like someone squirted super glue on the back and tried to sand it down I mean I wanted to cry. I wish I would've taken a picture of the original job. If the job couldn't be done I would have rather them be upfront and honest rather then rush and do more harm to something I've had since birth. The owner gave excuse after excuse on the work his employee put in. He then insisted on "fixing" the issue even though I was SUPER hesitant. After an hour I came back and this is the result. As you can see there is still a bit of a hard scratch over the left side of the E but it's a hell of a lot better than what the original job looked like and for that I give them 1 star. I wouldn't recommend this location for repairs or alterations AT ALL! TAKE YOUR MONEY SOMEWHERE ELSE. THANK ME LATER! read more

I bought a ring from this jewelry last year ( I only wear it on weekends/1 a week) and one month later a small diamond feel off I call in they said guarantee was done..

This is definitely the best place to purchase gold. They take covid precautions seriously so do not be discouraged if you see a long line outside. It's for everyone's safety. They were especially friendly and helpful and have great prices. read more

The ring that my husband gave me lost one of the diamonds. I need it repaired as soon as possible. This shop was only recommended by my best friend. Her ring was repaired by this shop. Her rings also lost one of the diamonds. Staff told me that he can repair it. While waiting one ring got my attention. It's simple and pretty. It has no design or diamond on it, just a pure simple ring. When I wear it it's perfect in my finger. Then I paid for it. After he finished repairing my ring the results were gorgeous. He's so good at repairing my fingers. What an excellent work. I highly recommend this place. You will not hesitate to come here again if you try to come to this shop. They not only repair jewelers but also sell jewelry. read more

I needed to take some links of a watch to fit me and to change the back. They did such a great job and was fast ! Due to covid there was a small wait. They only allowed a certain amount of people. They wiped down the counter and the door after a person left ! read more

Back in September 2021 I took a woman's ring size 7 to get resized to a 6.5 I paid $65 for this service which was reasonable. The lady who helped me yuri told me she has to speak with the person who does this service since it was a white gold rings with diamonds on the band, she came out and said 65$ would be the price. I agree and the service was done. I get the ring and it's a fairly good job yet the inside does not feel as smooth as I would have liked but nonetheless I made no fuss about it. Fast forward to February 2022 I take the same ring and tell them I need it a half size smaller to a 6. Now keep in mind I remember how much I paid for this service beforehand and it is the exact same ring, the lady goes and talks to the person who sizes , "that will be $150" I said wait a minute this is the same ring which was done for 65$ a few months ago, why the huge price hike, she grabs the person from the back and she states it's due to the quality of metal and diamonds on the ring I say yes I understand the ring is of great quality but why the huge spike in price I paid 65$ last time. She states they raised they're prices for the new year... from 65$ to $150 that's an almost 150% price increase!!! Ridiculous, they will try to rip off people I originally came as a friend highly recommended this place. They bought into the "hype" this store has created and overvalue the Jewelry they sell"thin and flimsy" and the services they provide. The employees rush and are not as welcoming as one hopes either. Took my ring to James and sons in orland park and paid $60 for a resize the receipt from the jeweler had the details I provided from the article of description certificate of the ring along with a picture weight type of stones everything! Very professional! Look elsewhere people. This place is simply rude and gouging. read more

I went in on Monday to ask about replacing the links on my Religious Bracelet. Manager quotes me 6 inches of chain which was 9.4 grams of Gold. Total $675.00 plus I get my old gold back. Returned that Friday with $200.00 cash deposit. ( Not needed, my choice) They text me 3 days later on Monday. I drive over & it looks great. Before paying my balance I asked them to weigh they bracelet. I dropped it off at 7.4 grams & not it's at 10.4 grams. So they only put on 3.1 grams, not the 9.4 grams I was quoted. Plus my old chain was not included with the bracelet. After arguing with Manager. I got my old gold back & payed $380. total. Still not happy about being given a quote of $72.00 a gram to paying $120.00 a gram. Been going there since 1998 , but no more. read more

Not a place to get a watch fixed. I brought in a vintage Buliva that had recently fallen off of my wrist and was no longer running. I'm in the neighborhood, so I figured I would give Torres Omar a try. They came back with a $150 repair estimate, which I could not afford. If this was all, I would have been completely happy and satisfied. Unfortunately, it took more than 3 weeks for them to return my watch. Everytime I called or stopped by, they said their watch repair person was not in and they did not have the watch. Each time they said it would be there the following Monday. Each time it was not. When I finally received my watch back, it was missing gears and had Rodico watch cleaning putty stuck throughout it. The watch repairman must have tinkered with the watch and then for got to put parts back in or remove any of the putty. Do not go here for watch repair. read more

Great customer service! I had been wearing both my engagement ring and wedding band over a full size too big for well over a year before I finally got my lazy self together to actually get it re-sized. They re-sized both rings within an hour and it only cost $40! Their reps on the floor were very friendly and willing to answer any of the questions my hubs had regarding the watches they had in their displays. They cleaned our rings while waiting. My only pre-cautionary advice is, be careful if your ring has a specific finish to it (brushed) because these guys polish the metal to a brilliant shine - which may in fact, polish off the finish. That's more on us than anything though. Would not hesitate to return! read more

My fingers got swollen during pregnancy and I came here to get my rings cut off. He came out in a rush, cut and TWISTED the rings, which caused multiple diamonds to pop out. He totally mangled them and now I have to pay at least double to get them put back together. I wouldn't trust them to work on any of my jewelry! read more

When I first met Pepe, owner and manager, he summed up his business with a few simple words, "We treat everyone like family." He has done nothing but that since my wife and I went to Torres Omar Jewelry hoping to find a band to match her wedding ring I bought on Etsy. My wife had a very specific style in mind. A simple thin rose gold infinity band. It didn't exist anywhere else the way she wanted it. Pepe worked with us to create the perfect ring at a price that I could only hope to get elsewhere. Others priced what my wife wanted at over $7,000. Pepe created the perfect piece for around $1,000. Needless to say, we were delighted. The compliments haven't stopped from friends, family and coworkers. Everyone loves how her band pairs with her wedding ring. It's classic and stunning. Since then, we have been back for a minor repair and I even bought my wife a pair of earrings for her birthday (she's not big into jewelry, so that's pretty major). I didn't actually end up giving her the earrings. Not to the fault of Pepe, I just came up with a gift I couldn't not give her. Despite hanging on to the earrings for nearly 6-months (because I'm terrible at returning things), when I walked into his shop today Pepe offered a full store credit that I used to buy my wife a beautiful Christmas gift, and a badass watch for myself. Guys who have bought engagement rings might relate to my first experience when I decided I wanted to get married. I went to Diamond Row in the loop and was made to feel like an idiot. My love for my wife was used as a tool to try to get me to spend an amount of money that was far beyond my means. Pepe and his associates understand why people like me buy jewelry. Like family, it's about love. And, like it or not, we're all on a budget. No matter what your budget, they will work to create the perfect piece that you or your special someone will be proud to wear. Selling and buying jewelry isn't easy. I wouldn't have ever purchased anything other than my wife's wedding ring if it wasn't for Pepe and his amazing establishment in Logan Square. Go see him. Him and his family will work their hardest to make you a part of their family. Thank you to everyone at Torres Omar Jewelry for their commitment to keeping jewelry simple, beautiful and attainable. read more

Have been a customer for about 20 years. Whether buying a trinket and using lay-a-way back in the day ...holla! Or having watches fixed, I've never had an issue. My eldest son gifted me a unique watch for my bday and unlike other watches where the manufacturer can send links to adjust fit, this one was a doozy as it had two strands of braided leather and then the clasp. I took it in and I admit this one cost more than usual but it came out great; they added links and made it look like a bracelet on one side so whichever way the watch falls it looks awesome. read more

They have the most amazing creative design! My fiance had my ring custom made here and anytime i'm out in public I get at least one compliment on how it is the most amazing ring they have ever seen! If your looking for a place that creates stunning pieces for unbelievable prices,go here!! Ps. They do such a great job on custom pieces ,that local sports teams have caught on and while they wont brag about it, some famous players have had things made here. :) read more

Thank you Yelp for helping me find this Jewelry Store!!! They were as amazing as all the reviews said! They fixed my diamond ring in less then 30 minutes while I waited and they charged a price that was both reasonable and acceptable!

I was so hesitant to have it repaired there, and now I'm so sorry I didn't go sooner!!! Thank you so much Torres Omar Jewelry Store!!! read more

I went in for an adjustment to a watch band. Greeted quickly, and adjustment made quickly while I waited. They had nice selection of mid range watches (Seiko and Citizen) if you are looking. Easy to find street parking. They speak Spanish, if important to you, and also had gold dipped flowers. read more

Had a name brand watch battery changed for a decent price. The one thing I was surprised about was that they didn't bother to set the date or wipe off their smudge marks. It wasn't a big deal but I did think that small step would top off the service. The good news is that they said it would be ready in 20 minutes and it was under 15 min. read more

I trust the jewelers at Torres Omar. I've been here several times to replace watch batteries and have watches repaired. Their service is excellent and on the few occasions they had to send something out - they always call with a quote before doing the work. read more

This small business is amazing. I took my antique wedding set to have the diamonds checked and had 4 rings resized. They were friendly, helpful, and prompt with their work. You don't need an appointment either. I brought my rings in right before Christmas and had them by the next week. Highly recommend! read more

I came here with my boyfriend last week because we needed to shorten an antique necklace he got me for Christmas. They staff was friendly and prompt and I was in and out in half an hour and for a great price! Great selection of jewelry here too :) read more

Wow! I'd been afraid to get my silver wedding ring re-sized because I thought it would cost a lot. I also knew it would be difficult to re-size because both the engagement and wedding bands have small diamonds embedded in them. These types of diamonds usually fall out if the ring is re-sized. I finally got the guts to go to Torres-Omar. This location is fluent in Spanish as well as English. Other companies I called said it would take a few days to re-size a silver ring, but Torres-Omar did it in 30 minutes! They resized (increased 1.5 sizes), sodered, polished, and cleaned it...all only for $50! They warned me the diamonds could fall out, but they didn't. I thought they would criticize my ring because it was silver, but they didn't; they were very kind, respectful, and helpful--and in no way overbearing. They did an incredibly beautiful job. My husband and I thought it looked better than new. While we were waiting, we looked at other wedding rings they had that were similar to mine. I thought they would cost a lot, but they were very, very affordable, even compared to bargains I'd seen online. I will definitely be going back here! read more

I wasn't too impressed with this place as they are EXTREMELY OVER PRICED! They may do good work but their prices are above market.

I asked for a simple battery replacement in my Timex. After leaving the store I noticed my watch simply wasn't running. The second hand wasn't moving at all. When I phoned back I was told my watch probably needed to be cleaned. Short on time, I took the watch next day to a local jeweler who showed me the watch hadn't been put back together properly. The contacts had been bent so that the new battery ($10 at Torres Omar) got shorted out. I just had my local jeweler fix the contact and put in a brand new battery. My watch is now running without problem. On the same visit I had an adjustment made to a pair of silver Mexican earrings. The repair was done, but the earrings were put in a solution which removed all tarnish. The result was a change in the appearance of the silver to the point that it was so flawlessly bright it looks like plastic. Now I'm waiting for the earrings to tarnish up again. I wish I'd been asked about the tarnish removal beforehand. read more

Very professional and friendly staff. A great place to purchase custom design jewlery.I will definitely do business with them again O:-)

One of the tiny pave diamond stones fell off my engagement ring's band while I was cleaning it in my ultrasonic cleaner. I managed to find the stone though but needed it replaced. Last time this happened I took it back to the jeweler it came from and they replaced it, no charge. But their location in Lemont is hard to get to when you live and work in the city....yelp to the rescue! This place is close to work. Liked this place's good reviews plus the fact that it says they can fix jewelry anytime. When I brought it in they said it might take up to 45 mins- so I just left it and went to work. Picked it up after work and looks perfect. Charged me $30, which I think is a bit too much. read more

I can't compare to any other jeweler since this was my first time visiting one, but I will say that my experience would probably disappoint most folks. I was getting my engagement ring resized and a few necklace chains repaired. The latter cost $10 a pop, which I'm inclined to say was a bit on the pricy side consider the breakages were very simple. As for the ring, I was asked to size my finger myself, which seemed a bit lazy on their end and resulted in a ring that is still a tad bit too large. When I returned for the ring the next day, I noticed that one of the four outer stones had come disconnect from the base and was jutting out noticeably. They asked me to come back in an hour so they could fix it. When I returned, the bracket they'd fixed was now bent out of shape and the prongs were crooked. I couldn't believe they didn't do a once over this second time. I was told to hold on a minute and just sat there waiting for 15 minutes, wondering if I ought to leave and come back yet again. After all was said and done, they were apologetic but offered no discount or coupons or anything. I'm happy enough with the final product but not sure I like having to do my own quality control. read more

I purchased a custom made peridot engagement ring and needed the wedding band. I have lived in the neighborhood for years and this was the only place I could think of that was close and that I could trust with my ring. The owner gave me an amazing deal (on the price) and the band was done in only 1 week. The wedding band they made is GORGEOUS!! (see picture) It was above and beyond what I expected. I almost cried when I saw it. The staff and the owner are great and I will definitely return with any future jewelry repairs or purchases. read more
