If you're in the market for watches, jewelry, or something truly unique and special, Crown Jewelers…read moreis the place to go. Located in historic Fredericksburg, this shop offers a great mix of quality pieces and a welcoming experience. Justin is personable, professional, and very knowledgeable nothing like the typical pushy salesperson. He takes the time to listen and makes thoughtful recommendations based on what you're actually looking for. The service is top-notch. While they are no longer an authorized Rolex dealer, they do carry Longines watches, along with a beautiful selection of estate jewelry. They regularly host estate jewelry events, which are definitely worth attending if you're looking for one-of-a-kind pieces rather than mass-produced items. I also love that they support local talent, they carry a great selection of jewelry from local designers. Everyone who works there is incredibly kind, and their gift-wrapping is excellent. Make a day of visiting Crown Jewelers and exploring other local businesses in historic Fredericksburg. Highly recommend!

I entrusted this jeweler with four custom rings made from my late mother's diamonds for her four…read moregranddaughters. A few years later, one ring lost its diamond. Thankfully, we found it and brought it back to the same jeweler for repair. Three days after picking it up, the head of the ring detached and the diamond was lost forever. When I returned, I was told, "The head was weak and that happens." No apology. No accountability. I was later told they "can't predict the future." Despite the rings being originally made there and the repair failing within days, I was charged again to fix it using one of the last remaining stones from my mother's jewelry. I have been a loyal customer for over 20 years. The lack of care, craftsmanship, and basic empathy during an incredibly emotional situation was shocking. I will never return and strongly recommend taking your business to the jeweler across the street.

They all told me no. Enter 'The Jewel Box' in downtown FXBG. They were amazing from beginning to end! They were kind, professional and most importantly they listened to me and understood my taste and vision. They never said 'No' to me, but instead worked with me to find a way to yes. The end result? A dream ring that knocked my socks off!!! If I could give this place 10 stars I would!

They said they it would have to send it out and it would take a couple of weeks. I told them that it was no problem. Well, 3 months later I got the call my earring was repaired. I went to pick it up. It was $150.00! I was never given a estimate. Silly me just assumed that since they fixed the other earring for $25. This one would be similar priced. I was never told that it would be 6 times more to fix! I feel that I have been taken advantage of. I will not ever go there again. The ladies at the front counter were very nice, but not $150.00 nice. Buyer beware!

If you have any item, whether it is a piece of jewelry or timepiece that you care for, DO NOT take it to this establishment. I would not even take costume jewelry to this guy. HE SIMPLY DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING. I purchased an expensive watch that only needed to be sized. After taking the band of my watch apart and after working on it for 20 minutes, he became flustered, handed it back to me in pieces and asked me to work on it myself. After, I insisted that he return the watch to me in the condition he received it, his response was "I will have to charge you for that?". WHAT!!! Are you serious?, I asked. I'm gonna make a long story short. The police department was called by me and when the officer showed up the officer quickly determined that this jewelry repair man was under the influence of alcohol. The repairman admitted to the officer that he had a couple of glasses of wine. The officer stated, "you had more than a couple of glasses of wine, I've been doing this for over 30 years". My expensive luxury watch is now in pieces and will be taken to a reputable jeweler. Do not patronize this hack shop. This guy is a jewelry repair quack.

We heard about this place through a good friend of ours as we are newly local to the area. From start to finish, DND made sure we had the best experience with the most amazing outcome possible. Diane was very sweet to us upon arrival and made sure that we knew everything we needed for our ring process. She was honest and answered every question we had. They quoted us a two week repair time but the time frame ended up being only a week. I can't express how much care and effort they took into repairing the ring we had. (Our price was even unbelievably affordable for the amount of work we needed done.) We cannot thank you enough for all of your time and effort into giving us an amazing experience. We will for sure be back for all our jewelry needs.

Is it prejudice against women? Is it racism? Yes, I am the black woman and I have never been to that shop before. Nor do I know the men who work there. Yes they were helping other customers, both men that, from what I could tell, were hispanic. But in my experience, you say hello to potential new customers as they enter the premises. You say we'll be with you as soon as we can when you know there is going to be a wait of more than a couple of minutes. You don't just act as if the person isn't there, unless, of course that is your intention because you don't want that person's service. Gave one star because I had to.
