Paul Armbruster Goldsmith is conveniently located in Aiea. He had made a custom designed Mrs Hawaii ring for me years ago, and I was so pleased with the quality of his work! He is a classically trained, Goldsmith, and a European designer. He also specializes in making beautiful Hawaiian jewelry. Needless to say when my daughter was graduating from high school, I wanted to gift her her first Hawaiian bracelet. The first place that I thought of was Paul Armbruster Goldsmith. We went in for a fitting to measure her wrist, and he custom designed a beautiful bracelet to her specifications. He was able to complete the bracelet on time so I had it before her graduation. When she got it for her graduation, she was absolutely thrilled! You can't beat his quality. read more

Went to this store on a Saturday at 2:45pm sign says they close at 3 and the lady ran to lock the door as my husband's hand was on it. Didn't even have the decency to wave through the glass and be like closing early sorry nothing just kept her head down avoiding eye contact like we weren't potential paying customers. Won't be back! read more

To all my friends in HAWAII, if you looking to purchase custom made jewelry, I recommend you go see my guy "Pual". The best Goldsmith on the island and the price is always right. (He offers military discount). Tell him "Fernando" sent you, I get nothing out of it. I want you to save $$$ My story: the first piece he sold me was a custom 14k gold bracelet for my wife, which he sold to me at almost half the price of what the NEX custom jewelry section quoted me (which is run by a local vendor). Pual reminds me of the jewelers I deal with in the Diamond District, NY, NY. Since I've been here he has sold me 4 custom made pieces. Oh and he also repairs gold. Don't get ripped off!

Bought a pinky signet ring from uncle. He said free resizing for life. So I asked him how do you make money. He said he takes care of customers. In this day and age; it is important to treat your customers fairly. Uncle is still working hard, loves his job and is apparent he loves his customers. If you are in the market for jewelry, I cannot recommend this shop enough. They will take care of you, answer any questions and make sure you love your product! read more

I highly recommend this jewelry shop. Honest, excellent customer service and gives good advice.

Paul Armbruster is such a Genuine person. When dealing with jewelry, everyone wants to make sure it's a person or family business with pure integrity. The welcoming environment, made me know my wedding ring was in good hands. The quality of his work is impeccable. I will definitely be back for my custom made Hawaiian bracelet. Thank You Paul and 'Ohana!!!! I truly appreciate you all!!! read more

This guy always give excuses that it will be done next week. And after 8 month I've had enough and so I complained to him and he finally work on my watch but he ended up breaking my glass and he didn't give any apologies but complain to me that the watch is small so its hard to fix. So what am I supposed to do? He won't even pay the full price of what he broke. I hope karma gets u for the mental stress u put me on for 8 month. read more

Amazing customer service and craftsmanship! Paul takes the time to explain everything and is very fair in his estimates. Paul and his staff are the best!!! read more

Armbruster Paul J Goldsmiths - Custom Amethyst gold ring with diamonds. - Jewelry Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

This establishment deserves a review. I've been shopping around for a Miami Curb Link chain for about a month now. Everywhere including the jewelry shop at the NEX has their items marked up sky high. Paul (the owner) assisted me this afternoon and when I asked him for what I've been searching for, he had a piece that I can honestly say is better than what I've have my mind on. This is what impressed me, he weighted the 18k chain on a scale and priced it based on what the current gold price is. This is how these commodities of value should be priced. Every other jeweler in town didn't even have a scale in the shop, everyone knows that gold is based on its weight. In my eyes, this business is by far the most professional jeweler on the island! He seemed honest and very personable in our conversation. I'm going to make my next purchase and all future gold referrals to this shop. His retail price for 4mm Miami Curb Link Necklace in 18k matches the gold shops that I've been comparing pricing to. With so few jewelers on Oahu, I would make this the first stop that anyone make if they're in the market for jewelery!! read more

Great service and beautiful work! My wedding ring needed some repair and they did an amazing job cleaning and repairing prongs. I would 100% recommend! read more

Wow! I took my wedding band and diamond engagement ring, plus another diamond ring to have them sized up and Mr. Armbruster did a WONDERFUL job. Everything looks brand new and sparkly, and besides sizing and refinishing, he tightened all of the diamonds so they are secure! I am so amazed and wish I had done this earlier. I would highly recommend this family-run business. Not only was the workmanship excellent, but the cost was really reasonable - way less than I expected. They're located in Aiea and worth the drive. read more

My engagement ring was made by this fantastic goldsmith. If you want the most beautiful custom work you'll ever see that isn't made by a junk machine, go here. I can't go on enough about his work. Lovely little shop that deserves more press. He made my engagement perfect! LOVE! He also does all of our other sizings and things :-) read more

Mr. Armbruster is probably the best jeweler I've ever had the pleasure to do business with. Very professional and helpful and does an excellent job. He is highly recommended. read more

Mr. Ambruster and his team were so kind when I walked in seeing if a ring could be readjusted. The design was pinching my finger and he made some small adjustments on the spot. The piece is now so much more comfortable (excited to wear every day!) and refused my offer for more payment. Quality service and great skill--I will certainly be coming back!!! read more

Super late review. I had mr armbruster made me a custom heart bracelet for my then, 1 year old daughter. Really good pricing. I also turned in some gold in exchange for the custom bracelets weight to lower the cost. read more

Did an outstanding job of fixing my mother-in-law's engagement ring about 7 years ago. Some of the best work I have ever seen.

Paul is hands down, the nicest guy out there. Made some holiday purchases which I am very happy with. Affordable prices, friendly service & good quality. Recently took a chain in for repair & it came out like new. read more

I needed to get my engagement ring resized so I searched online for a place I could take it to. Majority of the ones I wanted to go to unfortunately closes by the time I get off of work. I saw that this place was open on Saturdays so I hopped on it, only way to go. I read in previous reviews that it didn't take very long for them to have their ring resized and even got it back that same day. Unfortunately when I went in, I couldn't pick it up until Tuesday. I honestly didn't mind because I wanted it to get it taken care of ASAP. Was I bummed that I had to be apart from my ring for a few days sure, I had just gotten it! Anywho, I was able to get off of work early to pick it up that Tuesday and was sooooo pleased with the outcome. My ring was not only resized but beautifully cleaned and polished and not to mention for an awesome price. I would definitely go back for future needs and recommend this place. read more

It's been a long time coming! Our good friend referred us to Paul because of the relationship he has with her and her family for YEARS! We decided to finally go in on 8/11 to look at the possibility of purchasing a Cuban Link Bracelet for my Boyfriend that he had on hand. The price was right and we were leaning to purchase but Paul on the other hand had other plans, lol! He bought out this huge, GORGEOUS & unexpected Cuban Link bracelet & boom my boyfriend was hooked! It was meant to be. Without the expertise of Paul and the fact of him listening and knowing what my boyfriend wanted that purchase would have never been made. He wasn't pushy, he wasn't trying to make a quick sale. He let my boyfriend enjoy the quality, enjoy the weight, and let it grow on him before doing anything else. The price was right & the transaction went smoothly! If you want quality customer service and awesome work, I suggest going to Paul. His friendly staff, his welcoming vibes give it all away. read more

I've been going to see Paul for close to 20 years for all of my jewelry repairs and custom pieces. It is a great family run business! It's always nice to see and talk to them! Paul is so knowledgeable and his suggestions are always spot on! The jewelry always comes back looking better than new! read more

I broke my platinum necklace and dropped it off to get repaired. I received excellent and friendly service. My necklace was repaired as good as new and was ready when promised. read more

Mr. Armbruster in Aiea is a European trained goldsmith & does all jewelry repairs & such in-house. I just had my wedding band (with channel set diamonds which, I've read are inherently difficult to size-up) diamond solitaire engagement ring & a diamond cluster ring sized. He did an amazing job. My wedding band has an engraving on the inside & he made sure after the gold was added that the engraving was redone. My rings look like brand-new. The diamond cluster (which is an antique that I inherited) actually looks better than it did when I dropped it off. There was always one stone that was darker than the others. When I got it back, they all looked the same! I'm not sure if there was a stain under it or what but its fixed & I'm a happy camper. I could have taken my engagement ring & band to Kay Jewelers, where they came from but 1) they have a ton of negative complaints & 2) they send all their repairs away (and being in Hawaii, that means back to the Mainland). I was not overjoyed with the idea of some of my most prized possessions going back to the Mainland without me. He's just the sweetest little German man (maybe I'm biased being married to a German), as is his wife. Ya gotta check the place out. read more

My mom used to take all her jewelry to Paul and his wife for many years and now that I've moved to the area I do too. It is so nice to find an honest family run business and they are the nicest people. My son had my diamond set in a beautiful setting by Paul for his engagement and I just got my mom's diamond set in a new setting and it turned out beautifully and I get so many compliments. Whenever I'm in the area I pop in to get my ring cleaned and they are welcoming! If you are looking for a hard-working honest jeweler I highly recommend Paul Armbruster!!! read more

Great customer service. He was able to resize (up) a platinum wedding set flawlessly at a fair price.

I only buy from Mr. Armbruster. He and his family are extremely trustworthy and they are the most nicest people to work with. He can basically create any piece of jewelry you could imagine and I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. He has made custom jewelry pieces for me and my family and he continues to provide nothing but the best craftsmanship. Please go and check him out!. And don't hesitate to ask any questions.. He and his family will give you a great customer experience. read more

Mr. Armbruster is AMAZING! He made my wedding bands for my husband and myself and we couldn't be happier. My husband saw a tungsten ring with blue bands on it and we couldn't find it anywhere. After talking to Mr. Armbruster, we decided against tungsten and went with white gold. My husband had his heart set on the blue bands and Mr. Armbruster made it happen!!! For my ring I wanted pink sapphires and it came out EXACTLY how I wanted it. I would highly recommend Mr. Armbruster to anyone. He is extremely knowledgeable and he and his wife are the nicest people! read more

I had a money clip that I bought from Tiffanys awhile ago and the clip was not holding the dollar bills anymore. Tiffany said they couldn't close the gap so I found Mr. Ambruster thru google, and voila, in seconds he closed the gap......and now my husband won't have to carry thousands of dollar bills, hahaha. Thank you Mr. Ambruster for your excellent work and very fair price. I love his positive attitude, integrity and kindness. My husband is very very happy. Kathy V. read more
