   Couldn’t recommend this company high enough. Great experience from start to finish. Staff were very experienced, friendly and patient. My wife got two beautiful new rings that was just what she was looking for. Both rings were sized and ready to pick up in two days. Such a relaxing experience. Excellent quality of diamond rings and great value compared to some other jewellers. Will definitely be back again.

   You're always asking if you can trust the people helping you to get you the best product at the best price. I can honestly say that I left James Porter & Sons with the best product I could have afforded at the best price they could have sold it to me. The staff were friendly, the experience was straightforward, and the service was extremely efficient and customer-orientated. I cannot recommend them enough as a jewellers you can genuinely trust.

   I bought a GS couple of months ago from James Porter & Son. I can tell they really care for their customers, they really did the extra step to hand over the watch in the country I live. Plus some watch boxes that are not cheap! It was the only watch shop that knew the exact number of the limited edition I could get before I order it. Everyone else told me that the number is random. That was a great first experience. My next GS will be definitely from them. I highly recommend them.

   Delighted with a Christmas jewellery purchase from a friendly team. Excellent selection with many unique items you won't find in the many other retailers in the Argyle Arcade.

   I purchased a new Maurice lacroix watch today from David at James Porter & Son in Glasgow. Absolutely 1st class service, really nice people and very attentive, very trusting, I had 3 watches out along with different straps, I took my time and made my choice along with another strap colour. No pressure at all to buy. Honestly really great guys and they know about watches, In terms of quality of service whilst in the shop its got to be 10/10. David who served me is a great guy and if I wanted another watch I'd go back and buy from him. If you want a new watch go speak to these guys, honestly they are the best. Ian MacDonald

   I dealt with Simon over a few weeks while buying a watch. He was responsive to communications and a pleasure to deal with. I'm by no means local to the store, but it was a pleasurable transaction and I have no hesitation in recommending this Simon and James Porter.

   Excellent service, staff were very helpful and were happy to answer any questions I had! I was shown a wonderful selection of rings and picked one I am totally in love with! Will definitely be returning for our wedding bands. Thank you again to all the ladies who helped me!

   Not at all impressed. Purchased a watch for my son's 18th birthday online for store pick up, we went to store had a quick look at the watch (I mean why wouldn't I trust them?) and headed home. Later it dawned on me that it was in a generic Porter branded box and not a Bering box so I got it out for another look. Well then, take a look at the photo's, sticky residue from price sticker on the back, scraped paint on the back of the strap clip, smudged glass and of course no Bering box so no ancillary items either. I'm sure if it had been a 5 grand Rolex and not a watch worth just £179 then more care would have been taken but that's my opinion and Allan from James Porter & Son was very apologetic. However it has spoiled what was an exciting time buying for a sons landmark age and we had planned on spending a significant amount of money for my other sons 21st birthday watch but that won't be happening now and we certainly won't be back. For the record, by their own admission James Porter & Son only carry one of each watch so what you get will be the watch from the window and if it has no original box then be warned because they won't order one in it seems, you have to wonder do they lose the Rolex boxes, who knows? My advice if you are thinking about going to James Porter & Son is to very very carefully inspect whatever watch they hand over before leaving the shop as you may not get the complete package. The 2 stars are because Allan offered to personally help us procure another watch but the buzz was gone and we can only be thankful that we never presented it to our son and been mortified at the outcome.
