I was super worried about losing it because it was so loose and they measured my finger and adjusted my ring within hours!! I dropped the ring off at 1.30pm and had it back by 5pm the same day and now it fits like a glove. Service was super friendly and quick and they sent me a quote via text before doing the work! The icing on the cake was they cleaned the ring too so not only does it fit perfectly now it's also as sparkly as it was the day I got it. Really really happy and will definitely go to them in the future. Thank you!

I came here early on a Saturday after checking out a few shoe sole repair locations on Yelp. Mak…read morehad great reviews, so I decided to come early and get a quote since they were open on Saturday. I needed to get my boots' soles replaced and was thinking about completely swapping the soles too. Mak provided me a reasonable quote for the rebuild and was also very knowledgeable in the shoe care tips he shared with me. He said he would complete an entire rebuild of both leather boots' soles within the day, and I was able to come before closing time to pick them up. I accepted and left my boots and contact information. Separately from my experience with the shoe repair, a couple came in after me to do a watch repair as I was leaving. Within seconds, Mak was able to identify the problem and said it'd take 10 minutes to fix. Talk about someone who knows their craft very well! He sent a text less than 2.5 hours later letting me know they was ready for pickup. I came before the store closed to pick them up. The boots' soles were revitalized, I put them on and walked around the store with them. I was very happy. Mak is awesome, gets your shoe repair done quickly with reasonable prices, and I will absolutely going to Mak for any shoe repairs I may have in the future!

I highly recommend Geneva Watch Repair. About six months ago, I brought in an automatic Seiko for…read moreservicing. They did a good job, and the watch had been keeping very good time after I picked it up. Then ... after a few months, one of the hour markers on the dial came loose and was floating around between the dial and the crystal, sometimes stopping the movement. It had to be fixed, and I hated the thought of shelling out more money. However, when I brought it in, the good folks at Geneva Watch Repair told me that because the watch had recently been serviced and because I was a new customer, they would repair the watch for free. It was done within a week. I was very pleased. It's now been a few weeks, and the watch is still keeping time and the marker repair has held. Long story short, I will be a repeat customer. Moreover, the experience prompted me to write this Yelp review--my first!

I have two watches that stopped working--one about 25 years old, the other about 40 years old. I probably paid about $50-$100 each for them, but they have a lot of sentimental value.

They have gained a lifelong customer.

He was so patient and I really appreciated it, especially for my first experience getting my watch adjusted.

He charged me $20 for a new battery change, which only took him 5 minutes to do. I had a watch for 6 years that I barely wore, but brought it here for him to battery change. It's good as new and I'm so happy with it! Definitely would come back.

David is a true master and an honest person. He rescued my century-old grandfather clock from a bad…read moresituation and made it like new. I hired David to fix my antique grandfather clock which had been left with a number of issues as a result of poor work done by another clockmaker. When I called around to find someone to fix it, some said they don't do house calls, while one candidly told me that they would "stay away" from my clock as it had evidently been "mistreated" by the other clockmaker. So you can imagine how discouraged I was feeling when I called David. David did not hesitate for a moment when I told him the situation over the phone. He said he would gladly take a look and was optimistic that we could fix the issues. He arrived on time, carrying three carefully organized boxes of tools, which, he told me over the course of the afternoon, he had selected after decades of work in the field. "Some people see me carry two of the same tool and ask, why do you have two?" He told me, as he picked up a grappling tool. "Because one is lighter and the other is stronger." In the field, he said, the goal is to solve problems using the tools available. It's important to bring the right assortment and to be resourceful, since going back to the shop isn't an option. I listed the problems: the clock was failing to sound the "8 bells" chime and would get stuck; one of the chime notes wouldn't sound at all; the moon phase dial wasn't calibrated; and, most confoundingly, the clock would sometimes have a rogue "stuttering" strike on the hour while the chimes were still playing. He quoted a reasonable price to address these issues. He worked on the clock for several hours, explaining in great detail everything that he was doing whenever I asked. As an aspiring hobbyist myself, I asked a lot of questions. David blew me away with his theoretical and practical expertise, and his generosity in sharing the tricks of his trade. He never hesitated to involve me if I wanted to be involved, and to answer all of my questions throroughly --- a true mark of confidence. After a while, I was getting tired and hungry. When I asked if he'd like to take a break and have some lemon loaf cake that I had set out, he replied, "I'll enjoy loaf cake when this clock is working!" I really appreciated his resolve, especially after all that this clock (and I) had been through, at a moment when I wasn't even sure that the clock could be restored. Over the course of the afternoon, he identified several problems in addition to the ones I'd pointed out. The leather pads for the chime hammers were worn, creating a sharp and metallic tone (he replaced them, after demonstrating the improvement). The movement as a whole was "thirsty" and needed oil (he lubricated all the moving parts). One of the chime hammers had slipped off its restraint (restored). And regarding the "stuttering" strike, the strike train was being prematurely released for the duration of a single strike, due to a pad slipping out of place (he made the adjustments to fix it). This was not an easy thing to spot, and was the greatest source of my worry. But the malfunction didn't evade David's careful eye, and it didn't take him long to fix it. At this point, I mentioned how I had noticed that the pendulum was slightly out of beat --- slight enough that most people wouldn't notice, but I'm OCD about things like that and it bothered me. David listened carefully and then said that the issue was minor enough that clockmakers consider it to be "in beat," and that the clock wouldn't stop as a result of it, but he still adjusted the pendulum until we both listened together and agreed that it was perfect. We enjoyed the well-earned lemon loaf cake at last, while the clock presided over the gathering, proudly tick-tocking and chiming away. My century-old clock is now chiming the 8 bells chime on the quarter hour, sounding warm and proud and joyful. It strikes precisely and authoritatively on the hour, after the chimes have played their full melody. The moon phase dial is accurate. The clock is in beat, on time, and fully restored. David brought youth and energy back to this old grandfather clock. A master of his craft, and a true professional. Don't hesitate: hire David.

Finally it was three years, that's right - 3 years! I threatened to take legal action if he didn't respond and tell me exactly when I could pick up my clock. When I finally did, he told me he had lost the hands!! There were also screws missing. It was in parts! I was told by an out of state expert repair facility that it would take over $2000 to repair in its present state because basically it was ruined!

Everything felt rushed, impersonal, and mass-produced. After doing a lot of research, we found La Bijouterie. From our very first appointment, the experience felt personal and relaxed. We came back multiple times, asked Set (the owner) countless questions, and he happily walked us through the entire diamond process so we felt truly informed. We also went back and forth over email, more times than I can count, to get every detail just right. I was initially a little hesitant because I wanted a fairly classic three-stone ring, and La Bijouterie specializes in custom work, but I had very specific preferences around proportions, and we wanted an experience that felt enjoyable and genuinely customer-focused. La Bijouterie was exactly what we were looking for, with reasonable pricing that kept us within our desired budget. We couldn't be happier with both the ring and the experience, and we now recommend La Bijouterie to all of our friends who are starting their ring search. Thank you, Set and team!
