For the ring, I already had my own design, and the owner made it exactly as I designed it. He paid attention to all the little details, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. He also made a cross necklace from the same original ring, and it turned out so cute! I wanted a simple, pretty Tiffany-style look, and I absolutely love it. I had checked with several other jewelry stores before deciding, and his price was the most reasonable. The owner is very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly and patiently. I had quite a few questions because I didn't know much about the process, and he always took the time to explain things again without rushing me. I was originally told the project would take a little over a month, but he said, "I'll do my best," and he ended up finishing everything about two weeks earlier than expected! The store also has a double-lock security system, which I really appreciated. Overall, I'm really happy with the experience and with how my jewelry turned out. I would definitely recommend this place!

Dorano Jewelry did amazing work resizing my opal ring. I had checked with a few other places, and…read moresome were noticeably more hesitant to work with opal because of how heat-sensitive the stone can be. Garen was very upfront, professional, and confident. He explained that he would be using laser welding, which helped minimize heat exposure to the opal, and that gave me a lot more confidence leaving the ring with him. The finished work came out beautiful. The sizing looks clean, the ring fits perfectly, and the price was very reasonable for the care involved. It was definitely worth the longer drive. Thank you again to Garen for taking such good care of my ring. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

Review for My Thanh Jewelry…read more I came in around 1 PM to have two pendants checked after finding this place through Google. It had good reviews and was close, so I decided to give it a try. After being buzzed in, I stood right in front of the employee. He looked at me, then got on his phone and didn't acknowledge me while I was standing there. There was also a woman on the phone, which I understand, but even after that, there was still no greeting or basic acknowledgment. When he finally spoke to me, his facial expression and tone felt dismissive, like I wasn't worth the time. He did give me the information I needed, so I got what I came for. But the overall interaction didn't sit right with me. It felt like I was being judged based on how I looked or what I brought in. A customer is still a customer, no matter what they walk in with. Just sharing my experience so others know what they might expect.

We were so excited when Tracy presented two Rolex models for us that we can purchase same day, the Rolex explorer and Datejust, my husband was ecstatic! He couldn't believe his luck! Tracy explained that it was a new Rolex programs for ADs to have random Rolex in stock for walk in customers. Hubby tried on both watches, along with some sample models, in the end he decided to purchase the Explorer model due to personal preference and lifestyle. I also tried on the some Cartier watches and still considering the Santos or not. My hubby on the other hand could not whip out his credit card fast enough, he wanted his RoRo baby, and he was a happy camper smiling from ear to ear. Tracy was extremely patient and knowledgeable, explaining the difference in models, nicknames, availability, wait times for hard to get items. She was lovely to work with. Thank you for a wonderful experience getting my hubby his first Rolex. This LHW stores is grand, freestanding, and beautiful, with two heavy weapon security guards at the front. If you're interested in purchasing a nice watch, this place is highly recommended!

We had a wonderful experience at Hing Wa Lee Jewelers. May Shiu was our client advisor and she was…read moreextremely helpful, courteous, and welcoming from the moment my wife and I arrived. I originally came in hoping to purchase a Rolex, but the model I'm looking for wasn't available. May explained the process and added me to the waiting list. She never made us feel rushed or pressured and took the time to show us several other watches. While we were there, she showed my wife some beautiful pieces, and we ended up purchasing a Cartier for her. My wife loves it! Throughout the entire experience, May was patient, knowledgeable, and never pushy. She even made sure we were comfortable and offered us water while we looked around. What really stood out was how welcome she made both of us feel, even though the Rolex I originally came for wasn't available. It made the Cartier purchase feel special and enjoyable rather than pressured. Now I'm hoping to get that exciting call from May when my Rolex becomes available! It will be especially meaningful to me because I'm planning for it to be my retirement gift to myself after 30 years of work. I can't wait for that day. Thank you, May and Hing Wa Lee Jewelers, for a great experience. We'll definitely be back!

We ended up getting my engagement ring resized (two babies later the ring didn't fit lol), fixed a diamond that fell out of my halo, and got a new solitaire ring (both the diamond and setting from pro gems)! While we were here we ended up getting all of our rings cleaned as well. (Yay, thank you to the hubby!) My husband and I can be quite picky when it comes to big purchases like this but you can see from the 5 star reviews here that Patrick comes off very accommodating but trustworthy. We felt the pricing was reasonable when comparing to online prices and you can get your setting customized here. He was not overly pushy but also gave honest feedback where needed. He recommended going with a bigger ring size than I thought I should go with but ultimately that was the right call given hands swell in the summer and there's no guarantee I'll lose weight (I was telling him I'm in the middle of losing weight lol... maybe too optimistic on my end?) I feel like that could be a sensitive topic for some women but he handled it well with light humor. The customized ring setting takes 3-4 weeks and resizing with fixing a diamond in the setting took about an hour. We came in unannounced the first time and Patrick invited us back the next weekend where he was able to show me the diamonds I wanted in the different carat sizes and cuts I wanted. I would highly recommend checking out Pro Gems and working with Patrick for any future engagement rings, anniversary rings, or any fine jewelry in general!!

Patrick spent some time explaining the basics of ring buying as well as the various prices of natural vs lab grown diamonds. I got to try on various bands as he placed different cuts weighing on top to help determine which "look" I felt worked best on me. We also gave him our budget and he was able to work with us in that range and deliver on making my perfect ring! I love wearing it out, it shines beautifully, and the fact that it was made the way I wanted it adds a really special touch to this ring. I would recommend giving this place a call and setting an appointment to at least see what they have to offer.

I came in looking to resell some gold, clean my jewelry, repair a necklace, and to look for some new earrings. Like the other reviews said, the shop is owned and run by David and his mom. David speaks fluent English and Cantonese. I think some Vietnamese as well. His mom for sure speaks Cantonese and Vietnamese. They're both very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Let them know what you're looking for and they'll have recommendations for you! RESELLING JEWELRY David was very honest with me. I had some loose stones and he let me know there's not much anyone can do with them. I also had a ring that he identified as fake gold so it was pretty much junk lol. For some earrings that were 18k, he told me that there wasn't much gold (they were small) and because of that I would not get much resale value. Most of the value was really in the labor of making the pieces. I told him the main reason I was looking to sell was because they were white gold and I preferred yellow gold. He suggested I see his colleague at Focus Plaza and get them rhodium plated instead. (And I did for $20, see pics!) CLEANING Nothing to add, he cleaned my engagement ring so it was nice and shiny again. REPAIRING Great! His repairman soldered my necklace back together. The clasp snapped off but it was an easy fix. PURCHASING They have a great selection at great pricing. I ended up getting a pair of earrings with a delicate chain. Super cute and dainty.

HME. Hot Mess Express! Everything is "I'll give you good price, don't worry, good price". Okayyyy,…read morebut what is the price? SA said "if you're serious, I'll give you good price. I try my best, I promise." But I just want to know the PRICE. Jesus. Had a sweet SA showing my friend and I merchandise and I guess the manager, was running back and forth stating she will give the price. Long story short, she gave the wrong price. She wrote the total $14,920. We already handed her the cc and then she crosses it out and says it's the wrong price and I cannot buy it at that price. And to add insult, when I was taking a picture of the receipt she snatched it out of my hand. Prior to that, she snatched the calculator out of my hand as well. Now my total is $18,650 because she said the calculator calculated wrong. NO THANKS. Changing the price once you have the card in your hand? Unethical. Update 2/3/24 Thank you for your response and acknowledgment of this experience, Victoria. Human error would have been acceptable if she apologized and recognized the error on her part. Blaming the calculator, saying it's broken and it calculated wrong is an entirely different situation. When she snatched it away and stated "you cannot buy", she had no interest in trying to make a deal work. She had more interest in having us leave the store. Ironically, the store was having a visit from either vendors and owners . Everything was nice, up until they left. The security guard even left when they did and the other man was playing poker on his phone. Check your cameras.. we were there for at least 2 hours while the SA was running around and attending 2 different customers. There was no consideration to the time that we waited. And it wasn't a small amount looking to be purchased. Traditional Retail, especially in jewelry, is challenging for companies and owners. Service and merchandise should be even more exceptional! Regardless if it's $200 or $14,000, every dollar counts. The fact that she didn't even TRY to rectify the situation shows she doesn't need our business. DONT worry, we have no intentions in doing business with this company.
