I would get my watch batteries replaced only by him because he used quality batteries, and not the cheap ones made in China. I was down to my last functioning watch when I found one of the reviewers here explaining who he was. He replaced 2 of my watch batteries for the same price as in the past. This is his own space and works here with his family. He also has some lovely and unique pieces of jewelry. I am so glad to have once again found this reliable business!

This store is a true gem and a real North Shore classic (serving the area for over 50 years)…read more First off - Mr. Cullen is great. The store has a personality, its pretty quirky and I'd say (after working there for several years) that a sitcom based on this place just might work. (Oh the stories). They are genuine and honest folks who enjoy what they do and treasure the relationships that have been built over time and generations. I think the store is worth a look, as the Cullen's various interests and travels have brought some interesting pieces into the store. And there is definitely a mesmerizing collection of estate and antique jewelry (always my favorites). Oh and important to mention --- the store does not jack up prices like the chains do. The markup is minimum which means the customers are getting the most for their money. Any questions - feel free to ask! P.S. They do custom work, repairs, special orders, bridesmaid and groomsman gifts, great selection of charms, giftware, sterling and plate frames, clocks, and on and on. Check it out if your ever in the area! (Accessible by Pace and the UP North Metra!) P.P.S. And yes, as stated in the first paragraph - I did work here for some time.

I was shopping for an engagement ring going to all different places and seeing what's out there…read morewhen I met Olga at Bella Cosa. She was kind and patient with me, and explained to me a lot about engagement rings and diamonds. I kept shopping at different places and seeing different settings, but I never found the one that checked all of the boxes. But Olga stood out from all of the other jewelers that I was visiting, and I went back to visit her several times. We were able to put together a custom made engagement ring for less than some of the settings I saw at other places. She brought in some center stones that I was able to compare and pick from, and her pricing and selection was significantly better than loose diamonds I was seeing at online retailers. The ring looks fantastic, and I couldn't be happier. I'm really happy with the price that I paid for what I got. The ring looks fabulous on my fiancée's finger, and she gets compliments all the time from people who saw that ring sparkle from across the room. I can't thank Olga enough for working with me, her patience, and her no pressure sales approach. She explained things in great detail and answered my questions, no matter how ridiculous some of my questions were! Her and the Bella Cosa team knocked it out of the park, and I can't thank them enough!

After spending thousands(14K) of dollars here and being a loyal customer , I asked Jackie to fix a…read moregold bracelet of mine. She fixed the busted clasp and charged me $75 for which I was fine with. I picked the bracelet up and the next day the bracelet broke falling off me and I could not find it. I came back to the store and she told me that it was not her fault since the bracelet could had broken in another place. I send fine could you just at least refund the $75 I was not asking her to even replace the bracelet and she said no and got very nasty with me. I will NEVER go back there. I also live in the city and since she would not return my calls I had to drive out there to talk to her. She is a horrible business person and I will never but anything from her again.

Unfortunately, there's not much time for shopping in my life, although I did happen to make a stop at my beloved dollar store* to gather some goodies before hopping on a flight to Florida. And that's where I noticed Jacquelie's of Northbrook. Hooray- a jewelry store! My first instinct was to check the Yelp reviews...duh. When I noticed they didn't have any I was a bit worried about leaving my nicest watch there, but figured it was worth stopping in. As soon as I walked in I received lots of attention even when they realized I was there JUST for a watch battery. I was still a bit worried about leaving my watch there, but decided it was probably OK since a) they mentioned they'd been in business 35 years b) had a lovely selection of jewelry & c) the rent next to sunset foods has to be somewhat high so they must do A-OK selling jewelry They gave me a receipt (complete with a pic of my watch) and told me they'd be in touch in about a week. They did mention there could be a slight delay due to the holidays. When I didn't hear from them for a week I called them myself and got VM. Jacqueline herself returned my call and let me know they were taking vacation for the holidays. As soon as they opened their doors after the holidays I got a call that my watch was ready. I picked it up the very next day and it was ticking away! Hopefully the next time I stop in here is for a bit of jewelry shopping. They have a nice selection at different price points. And I also recommend if you need a new watch battery! * http://www.yelp.com/biz/dollar-tree-northbrook?hrid=mqNRZf8v4YDMXyqw3Kvr6w

I'm thrilled with the service we got at Daniel's Jewelry. We needed to get a few pieces appraised…read more They do a fair amount of appraisals so were told it would take a week when we dropped everything off. To be sure they protect your valuables. they photograph everything when you drop it off and give you a receipt for your items. You must bring these papers back with you when you come to pick them up. They won't release them unless you have these papers to ensure no one else takes your things. I think that's a great idea. We made an appointment for a week after we dropped our items off and arrived to get them right on time. We were greeted immediately and they brought out the jewelry. They take the time to go through what they found, item by item. They also clean your jewelry and tighten any stones. I highly recommend Daniel's for any appraisals, cleanings, and repairs. We didn't buy anything while we were there - they have a great selection and I understand they also make custom jewelry.

Burdeen's is the sole authorized dealer in Chicagoland for Grand Seiko watches so we knew this was the place to buy. They have a large display in store to try on many of the watches in stock. Evan was knowledgeable about the craftsmanship that goes into the watches, the backstories of inspiration for each, the mechanical differences, elaborated on the brand's warranty, gave suggestions on how we could best purchase the watch, and handled procuring it in a timely fashion. He was easy to work with, very personable, and made our whole experience great! We cannot wait to work with him in the future as we build a collection!
