OK, anyone that knows me will tell you there are many things in life I know much about and other…read morethings in life not so much. The not so much includes purchasing jewelry. So here we were, my son preparing to ask his girlfriend to marry him. He knew he needed a ring, but wasn't sure where to go. Everyone we spoke to highly recommended "All Island Jewelry and Loan". So off we go. Upon entering the establishment we were greeted by Ray, turns out Ray is the owner. Also present was his very able assistant Luke. My son spoke with Ray and explained he was there to buy an engagement ring. At this point, most jewelry store owners would start to take out various rings and push the buyer to whatever items they need to move ( at least I think that's what they would do). With Ray, this truly wasn't the case. Instead, he starts to speak with my son in a very earnest way Explaining various settings, what's available and what he should look for given his budget. This went on for a while, quite honestly I wanted to go back to the car and take a nap: for many reasons I chose not to. Ray showed my son several different rings; he told him before purchasing the ring he should go out, look around be sure this is what he likes. In fact, Ray was like the anti-salesman. If I owned the business I probably would've fired him. He was all about happiness first sales second. Kidding aside, a very lovely engagement ring was selected, in fact it's beautiful. My son gave it to his fiancé (he was supposed wait, you know how that goes), of course she was elated. A month or so later for insurance purposes we had the ring appraised. The ring appraised very well. In summary, if you're like my son and I and really don't know where to purchase expensive pieces of jewelry I would suggest you put your trust in Ray and his team, they are fair, community minded and there for the long run. Certainly not what I expected when the entire process started.

I dropped off my Panerai and Omega for polishing on Thursday and received a call on Monday that…read morethey were ready for pickup. Both watches were restored to mint condition-- the Omega had significant scratches and the Panerai had a ding, all of which were flawlessly repaired (check attached pictures). Excellent service at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

Avoid Ralph at All Costs - Incompetent and Dishonest…read more I'm writing this from the courthouse where I've just filed a lawsuit against Ralph. That alone should tell you everything you need to know. I brought my father's watch to Ralph for a simple gasket replacement. It's a diving watch he wore while serving in the military, and I'm heading to Ukraine to serve myself--I wanted to wear the watch in his honor. I chose Ralph because of the many glowing reviews online. Big mistake. The first red flag was the overwhelming smell of marijuana in his shop. I dismissed it at the time, thinking maybe it helped him focus on delicate work. I couldn't have been more wrong. When I first brought the watch in, it was functioning well--just running about a minute slow each day. All I asked was for Ralph to replace two gaskets. We agreed on $200, which was all I could afford as I won't be working for the next six months during service in Ukraine. For such a basic job, it was a fair price. A day later, I called to ask if he could look into the cost of a new crystal. After not hearing back for a couple of days, I followed up--only to be told he had already replaced the crystal for $150 without my consent. When I told him I wouldn't have agreed to that, he flew into a rage, yelling about how he wasn't making enough on the job. It became clear to me he may have serious issues, possibly substance-related. When I finally went to pick up the watch, the bezel no longer turned. Ralph claimed I had damaged it myself, which I hadn't. Then I noticed the self-winding mechanism wasn't working. He insisted it was fine, despite clear evidence to the contrary. It was rubbing against the back plate. I stormed out taking my watch, but later returned, hoping he would take responsibility. After more yelling and resistance, he begrudgingly agreed to take another look. Weeks passed. My departure date for Ukraine got closer. Today, 2 days day before I leave, Ralph texts to say the watch is ready. I go in--and unbelievably, it's in worse condition than before. The winding mechanism is not working as it should. The bezel now turns, but it could easily be roomed with a thumbnail. I walked out refusing to pay. This time, he followed me outside, becoming aggressive. I told him I would see him in court. Later that day, I went to another, far more competent watch repair professional. He opened the case and immediately found the issue: the movement wasn't seated properly, and the retaining ring was missing. I know that was there when I gave it to him because I open the watch myself to see what gaskets were needed. Without it, the entire mechanism is unstable. If a replacement can be found, the watch might be salvageable. But it's an older model, and chances are slim. This isn't just a watch--it's a deeply sentimental piece of my family's history. And it's also quite valuable. Ralph, if you're reading this: You know exactly what happened. That retaining ring didn't vanish on its own. It's either still in your shop or you carelessly threw it away. I don't forget things like this, and I'm not letting it go. Ever. To anyone considering trusting him with something valuable: Don't. The reviews are misleading. My experience was a disaster, and now I'm left with a broken watch and a legal battle just days before leaving. Also, take a moment to read the negative reviews--those are the accurate ones. Many people have had experiences similar to mine. And look at his responses: full of excuses, never accountability. He clearly lacks the ability to take personal responsibility. Pathetic. Take a look at the photo I've attached. You can see at nine and 10 o'clock the space between the watch face and the case itself.

Love having Bellport Jewelers as my personal jeweler. When you go there and meet Peter, Dianne, and…read morePeter Jr - you feel instantly welcomed and become like extended family! They really do exceptional work and take great pride in it. This place is not like those generic super mall chain store jewelers which I personally can't stand. Their store is in the quaint town of Bellport which is very historic and beautiful to walk through, shop, enjoy an ice cream or grab a slice of pizza. Instead of selling my unwanted gold.... Peter did the most amazing thing with my pile of jewelry. He made me custom pieces that were so artistic and organic.... and I am the only one who has them! If you are an artist or appreciate art like me - definitely see Peter. Plan on staying awhile in the store because odds are you will sit down for a good chat!

Wow wow wow! What can I say! I am so in love with my ring from Bellport Jewelrs! Dianne worked with…read moreme to comb through many options of stones and settings until we came up with my ring! She was patient and informative and most of all really took time to understand and execute what I wanted. I highly recommend you getting your custom engagement ring here! The best part about Bellport jewelers is that they have a passion for antique and showed me a beautiful vintage round diamond after looking at so many newer cuts that I wasn't loving. Most jewelers shy away from vintage! Seriously if you are looking for a lifetime piece, something you will love forever, Bellport Jewelers is your place!
