Excellent service, thank you very much I've had a number of items and a couple of repairs Very good prices and service one of the last remaining true jewellers in Cardiff
WORST JEWELER EVER. QVC RING IS RUINED. I went here to get a stone reset, should have been an easy job. There was no damage to the ring, the stone just popped out. He quoted 20 to put it back. When I came back 2 weeks later, he showed my ring in complete ruin, the 9K gold broke on the side and he had put it together with GLUE. I wanted him to fix his bad job on it, he said he would have to redo the whole thing and it would take 4 weeks but he would fix it. Today my partner picked it up and He SOLDERD the gold..... also all the gems are solderd in place and tilted!! These had no problems and now they also look bad. I probably can't even sell it for Scrap gold now. The design is ruined, the gold is ruined. It looks whack. I am literally shaking from anger and have been crying about it for weeks. It was such a nice ring. Qvc rings go for a lot, but he made fun of the ring because I bought it in a local charity shop. Why does that matter? It is 9k gold with multiple gems. (I wrote this weeks ago but I was so broken I didn't even post it until now..)
Highly recommended. Excellent value new watch battery. Extremely friendly/ great advice. Definitely going back to check out his estate jewellery/watches which also seem well priced
The BEST place! Full of gems. And the gentleman who owns it is so lovely and really know his stuff. Thank you for fixing my two chains and two bracelets. And thanks for selling me the watch. I LoVE it!
My partner and I are both watch collectors, so often keep our eyes open for great watches. We come across this little jewellers, even know this was a very small and narrow shop the variety of amazing watches on display, puts the surrounding larger pawnbrokers & jewellers to shame. After chatting to the owner about some watches, asked for the best price on a man’s Tissot automatic 1970’s watch?… he offered such a great price my partner brought the watch. Only one thing I will say that made me feel weary {this is hence why only 4/5 stars} When he removed the back of this watch so we could see the movement great apart from the fact he done that without washing all the polish and black dirt from his hands first…?! (his hands where black from jewellery he was cleaning beforehand) Would highly recommend a visit, very welcoming and friendly service.
Very friendly & helpful owner, with a nice variety of quality Jewellery
Took my quartz watch for a simple battery change. At first he claimed it would cost £50 as my watch took a "special" battery. I know exactly which battery my watch takes and they cost about £1. I insisted he was wrong so he opened up the watch and shock horror, it was a standard battery. He charged £10 to change it. Fair enough I thought as decent places reseal the watch and test the water resistance. I checked this when he handed it back and his response was no, I didn't replace the gasket or test it. So don't get it wet. My watch is meant to be 100m water resistant. I won't be going back.
My partner recieved a 28ct gold chain from his parents whilst visiting Egypt for his 18th birthday, because of the significance we wanted this chain melted down for our wedding rings . We trusted this establishment because all my family bought from there! After the rings were "made" We was told that the hallmark had to be 24ct because the UK didn't have a 28ct hallmark, later on found out that our rings were ordered from a catalogue and were 24ct. This was in 2011 and it still eats me up that they did us wrong.
Regularly use this jeweller and I cannot find fault workmanship price and care taken each time . A loverly owner who takes great pride in his work. Very rare these days to find this and I will continue to shop and get my jewellery mended here’s. thankyou
