The service was quick, professional, and done perfectly. What really stood out was how friendly and welcoming Boris is--he clearly cares about his customers and takes pride in his work.

I'll definitely be back.

Considering it takes 5 mins. His hourly rate is 700. He is a dirt bag. A & D watch repair on Lincoln was willing to do it for free. Also the ladies at Bryn Mawr Jewelry swapped for free. Do not go to this place. Only leave reviews for exceptional service and terrible service. This is the latter. 0/10 for "Joseph"

This is the best clock and watch repair business I have found. Other so-called 5-star services…read moredon't return calls like Chicago Clock does. I smile when I read "unfriendly" in a review of CCC. They may not have the smiling style of the other places, they just have pure competent substance. They also may not be the "low price leader" in quoting a repair. But they guarantee any repair. I just brought in to them a 6 month old watch that had a hard-to-turn crown. I had taken it first to another place that told me they fixed it but that it was corroded and needed some winding to loosen it up. I discovered it was a quartz watch that needed no winding. The place unscrupulously had charged me $68 for the so-called repair. Chicago opened it up for me while I was there and found a gnarly rubber gasket that I had probably messed up myself trying to wind a battery powered watch. The technician should rightly have called me an idiot but instead just fixed it in 2 minutes, He did not want to charge me anything. I insisted on giving him at least a $20 tip which he reluctantly but appreciatively accepted. This is the kind of business I respect and will patronize again and again going forward.

I brought in three watches to Russ for repair/service. On one, I was looking for a band. We looked…read morethru the book Russ had and he turned to me and advised me to find a band on some site that would cost me less money than buying it from his sources. The other watch needed a battery change. They changed it, made the watch water resistant and polished/refreshed it at no charge. The other watch needed a band removed. Point being, I found Russ to be an honest, upfront individual, who is passionate about his profession and watch collecting in general. He appreciates these little things we put on our wrists and I believe he has the customer's best intentions at heart.

Some places sell jewelry. Fuenfer Jewelers handles the things you can't replace…read more I brought in my father's ring to be resized. I thought it would be straightforward. When I picked it up, I cried. The team didn't just do the work, they treated it like it mattered, because they understood that it did. That's not something you can fake, and it's not something every jeweler knows how to do. They also helped me pick out a wedding band, which somehow felt less like shopping and more like sitting with people who genuinely wanted me to find the right one. No pressure, no pushing, just honest expertise. And when I needed a watch appraised, Brett Fuenfer took the time to walk me through everything. His knowledge is the kind you only get from someone who deeply loves the craft, and the care he brings shows in every interaction. To Brett and the entire Fuenfer team, thank you. You turned three separate visits into moments I won't forget.

Please go meet Sam, a highly skilled jewelry repair specialist and perhaps but I would not know for…read morecertain, he may be able to design a custom ring mount for the diamond or other "stones" you have as he did for me. Sam is a great guy. I am copy/pasting how I discovered Sam as I had walked out of another old orchard mall jewelry store. The good news is that when I walked out the door, I discovered RAPID REPAIR, a store that specialize"s in Jewelry, Watches and even eye glass repairs, right next to Hellsbergs store.. I met Sam and explained my situation to him about mounting the stone and baggat diamonds. Sam is a great great guy, one of the kindest man I have ever met. Sam took a careful look at my diamonds. Then he sketched out a few designs that he could create to make a ring using the marquis and the baggets...I loved his design concepts and chose one of them. In other words, He was going to create and then make a custom setting for me!! WOW, I thought how good is this. I asked what he would charge. With a perfect weight in White Gold and hs own customs design would be $300 Absolutely an amazing price for a custom design. Sam is the best in the business. Though he could not gone it done today, he would have it ready tomorrow. I hope that you visit SAM for all your repair needs, Also, why not ask him anything else that you would want? Perhaps he will be able to create and make a custom product for yo
