    Watch Doc repaired my favorite watch, one that another watch place said was "unfixable".
    Paul B.

    I was told by another watch repair place that my Mickey Mouse reproduction watch was unserviceable due to parts no longer being available. I was just about to write the watch off for good but decided to get a second opinion. Based on excellent customer reviews on Yelp I went to Watch Doc in Burbank and to my surprise they were able to fix my watch in just 15 minutes while I waited! Watch Doc made me a very happy customer! They fixed a watch that was supposed to be unfixable. Thanks, Watch Doc, for making my day! Highest recommendation!!

    My watch stopped working and was a little bigger than I wanted as my wrists are pretty slender. I looked around on yelp (!) for nearby places and Watch Doc looked positive, efficient, and close by. I walked in and was approached by the owner, who was really helpful and got it fixed for me in about 5 minutes. If we have any other watch or jewelry fixes, we will come out again soon :)

    I went to Watch Doc while in Burbank, I went in to the shop because the glass on my Rolex was broken and I took it in to Tom and he told me that a small piece was stuck between the dial and the hands and it damaged the watch. He took great care of my watch, the place was very inviting and they do have an amazing selection of straps to choose from so when I went back to pick up my watch I dropped off another watch for a strap replacement and a battery as well.

    Had new battery replaced

Whether I'm browsing or making a significant purchase, everyone has always been friendly, welcoming, patient, and never pushy. I've purchased a few pieces of jewelry here over the years, and I'm currently looking at upgrading my wife's wedding ring. I've met with the owner, Zaven, several times throughout the process, and he has been incredibly knowledgeable and generous with his time. He never rushed me and took the time to explain every detail so I could make an informed decision. I even brought my wife in on a separate visit, and Zaven patiently went through everything all over again, explaining the differences between natural and lab-grown diamonds, discussing the pros and cons of each, and answering all of our questions without ever making us feel pressured. His goal genuinely seemed to be helping us make the decision that was best for us, not simply making a sale. When you're spending a significant amount of money on luxury jewelry, this is exactly the kind of customer service you hope for honest, transparent, educational, and patient. I highly recommend Burbank Jewelry Outlet to anyone looking for quality jewelry and exceptional customer service. I'll definitely continue coming back for future purchases.

That means approximately **36.6%** of the value was kept. For people who may not know: * A very fair/refiner-level buyer often keeps around **10% or less** * A decent local gold buyer usually keeps around **10-20%** * Keeping over **35%** is extremely high I do want to be fair and say this was partly my mistake because I should have slowed down and double-checked everything before agreeing. I had calculated my gold beforehand, but once the pieces started getting separated, weighed individually, and moved around during testing, I got confused and didn't stop to fully redo the math in the moment. It wasn't until I got home and sat down with the numbers that I realized how far off the payout actually was. At the same time, this is also why I personally would not return. An honest buyer who is trying to build trust and long-term customers usually does not let someone walk out with this large of a gap without at least explaining the percentages more clearly or offering something closer to a fair market payout. I'm posting this mainly as a warning for others: if you're selling gold, especially larger amounts of scrap gold, know the approximate melt value beforehand, take your time, and get multiple quotes before agreeing to anything.
