    On the right is the pin Simon repaired!!!
    Robbie M.

    After moving back to the UES I had the good fortune to go across the street to support "Local Merchants" I met Simon who couldn't have been nicer. I broke the tip off of my FAVORITE Rodeo Belt Buckle and X won at a Rodeo. Simon assured me he could fix it along with 6 of my watches I haven't worn in 12 years ! Well, not only did he fix it. He had it looking, sparkling new.!!!!! I was really impressed with his workmanship and his professionalism and the pride he takes in his work that's what's missing these days ! I plan to give Simon my jewelry business when I win the lottery or have some spare money ha ha ha but he truly is a GEM in the neighborhood. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Please help me support our local merchants you won't be sorry. Thank you, Simon

    Diamond earrings purchased at the store

    I stopped by this shop randomly since I've been feeling like I've been long overdue for more long lasting quality pieces and this place far exceed my expectations. The store has a lot of great reasonably priced options but the best part about the store is Simon who is patient, honest and receptive. Simon was never pushy even and even gave me honest feedback when I was in between three choices (I think one was a pricier option but he still encouraged me to select the more middle priced option). He also saw me try on these same earrings at least 5x right before closing but never rushed me and was extremely transparent about pricing even down to the credit card fee (and allowed me to run out to get cash to avoid paying $50 more). I'm really grateful for Simon and will definitely be visiting this store again in the future and encourage others to do the same

    I went to Simon to have my watch resized. He did it in less than 3 minutes. He is very friendly and efficient. Will definitely go back to have some jewelries reset/fixed

    Beautiful ring!

    We went back to look at the art deco collection and found a beautiful white gold and diamond ring - very exquisite and unique piece for sure and a true collector's item. The price was great and Simon even resized it (and cleaned some of the jewelry I had on so that it sparkled!) on the spot. Definitely my go-to jeweler close to home now. He also repairs and services watches (Rolex, Cartier, Michele, Omega, etc.) which is another plus! I have been to many jewelers in the city (and outside of the city) and Simon is one of the best: honest, detailed, and he truly takes care of his customers.

    My Mom's pendant.. Fixed!

    I took a watch for repair and he cleaned a ring I had on. He fixed a broken necklace, and replaced a stone in one ring. Very good!

    How much to replace watch batteries? I have 3 that need them: swiss army, prada, and citizen. Let me know if you are able to do these and how much, thank you.

    No more than $10 each, including the labor as long as they are not Eco-Drive watches.

    What is the price range for a ring resize?

    As much as I wish it was a simple answer, it really is difficult to answer. It usually depends on the size of the ring, level of work required, weight, gold quality, etc. With that said, I can promise you that our prices today and always, are very…

I happened to be in Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan today, so I ran over to Grand Central Watch to get an estimate. I was really upset because my wife bought me this watch on vacation years ago, so there is a sentimental attachment to it. The owner saw that I was stressed out and she looked at it, turned around, fixed it in about a minute and handed the watch back to me. I was really nervous because I didn't know how much it was going to cost. I asked: "How much is the repair?" She replied, " There is no charge. Just leave me a review on Google." I couldn't believe it. I didn't know there was any place left on earth like that. How could I not leave a review after that? Five stars!!!!!!!

If you have a priceless family heirloom or a piece of fine jewelry that requires absolute perfection, J Patch Designs by Karen is the only place in New York City you should trust. I brought in my late father's century-old, solid gold Masonic ring to be resized up to fit my finger. Because the ring features an incredibly delicate, heat-sensitive vintage black onyx stone, a standard jeweler's torch could have easily cracked it. Cliff looked over the piece and immediately guaranteed he would execute a specialized, high-tech precision laser weld.Not only did he resize the thick band flawlessly with an invisible seam, but he also performed an absolutely razor-sharp, custom one-line laser engraving inside the shank to commemorate my own Master Mason milestone (MM 5-2-81). The mirror-polish finish he delivered brought the historic gold back to its full, brilliant glory without losing any of its vintage character. To top off an already perfect experience, the customer service was warm, honest, and completely professional. Cliff even walked me through the care process and provided a complimentary bottle of liquid jewelry cleaner. As a high-volume content creator reviewer with over 16 + million views , I inspect businesses with a very strict eye--and J Patch Designs easily earns the highest recommendation possible. Thank you, Cliff and Karen, for treating my family's history with such immense respect! You made my day!!! Once again thank you!! I normally don't give 5 Stars.
