I took my husbands college ring to be resized to a well known jewelers in Torrance and they wanted $800. Initially the BIG jewelers wanted $1,500 with 14kt gold but then $800 using 12kt. At first I said yes, but then thought with that kind of price I would get more estimates. The first place I went to was Rubys Jeweler in the Torrance Crossroads. This store was my friends' jeweler so I thought I would try it. To my surprise they resized my husband's ring beautifully and for less than half the price of the BIG jewelers. I highly recommend them, they have been in business for many years and that would not happen if they did less than excellent work. read more

I had the misfortune of going to Ruby's Jewelery. Ever piece I brought in the stones fell out the next day. See citrine bracelet below. This stone has fallen out THREE TIMES. The problem is the jeweler is too cheap to make a proper gold setting, and thus the stone falls out immediately. I went back two times to rectify this issue. Obviously, they don't know what they are doing, so the third time I will go elsewhere. That's paying for a simple fix that should cost around $200.00. instead I have to pay $200.00 three times for THEIR MISTAKE! They also jacked up another piece. It was a ring to be sized, and Jimmy used a bronze metal to resize a gold ring. It looked terrible, and will have to resize ring with gold. Don't go here. They should retire l. They will ruin your cherished jewelry. read more

I absolutely love going to this jewelry store! The husband and wife that work there are so friendly, helpful AND SO HONEST!!! I have taken several watches in to get serviced and they always did the repair quickly and at a price that just couldn't be beat. I have taken necklaces, pendants and rings to get repaired. I have never in the past 10 years had any problem with any of the jewelry they sold me or the repairs that they made. I recommend Ruby's to all my friends and they are all as pleased as I am with their service, professionalism and Prices!! read more

Ruby Jewelry is located in a large strip mall on Crenshaw Boulevard and Lomita Boulevard in Torrance. I had originally brought my 14K bangle bracelet for repair. A "youngish" man helped me and did a great job at a reasonable price. When I returned to have my 14K gold graduation ring repaired there was an elderly man and his wife there. I told him my graduation ring had cracked and pulled apart. After I got my ring back I was shocked. My 14K yellow gold ring looked like it had been covered (dipped?) with a dark colored imitation gold plating. The ring had been soldered but the crack still showed on the inside of the ring. The darkish gold colored coating on the inside of the ring had partially come off and had turned black. My ring had a small diamond on top of an onyx. The onyx around the diamond was scratched and damaged probably as the result of dipping a gold colored plating. My ring was ruined. When I showed it to them they denied they had done anything wrong and said the inside crack that was left was the best they could do. The final insult was when I was charged $25 to get my ring back! Never, never go this jewelry store. I now go to Melissa's Jewelry and Repair in Lomita where they've resized multiple rings at a reasonable price. I recommend them highly. read more

Took 14K jewelry to sell. was told it was not 14K. Had it tested else ware and found out it was EXACTALLY 14 K., BEWARE! read more

I brought my wedding ring to be resized and they ruined my ring. They cut the ring and did a shitty job at soldering it together in addition the solder that was used was not gold. The finish was very rough and looked as though a two year old worked on it. I did not mention that I had to return three times to get to this point. The work is beyond their capabilities and I'm the one who suffered. I called them because the ring actually split where they soldered and requested a refund or at least half a refund as I need to get it fixed. The gentleman just said bring it back,I'll fix it. Obviously he has no idea what a ring should look like. Nice people but this job was outside their wheelhouse. read more

Good convenient place to get your watch battery changed or your watch repaired. A change of watch battery will cost you about $4.99. We came here once to get a watch repaired (well not really a "repair repair"...basically the watch was too big for my mom's wrist and so we needed them to remove some of the links. This cost about $7. They change the batteries pretty quick and the removal of the watch links is quick too. You can definitely wait and you'll have your watch in a couple of minutes. It is quick, fast and convenient. read more

I needed my 50 year old Elgin wristwatch repaired. I brought it to Ruby's and the gentleman that looked at it said he would open it and check it out. He said it probably only needed to be cleaned and lubed which I agreed to, but he said he'd call if it was something else. The next day he called me and said my watch was ready, it only needed to be cleaned and lubed. He could have sold me on unnecessary parts, but he was honest and HE WAS VERY REASONABLY PRICED. My watch is now keeping perfect time and it hasn't run this well since it was new. read more

Ruined my ring I wanted resized. Had to go to another jeweler to get it fixed. The owners were really nice though.

They seem like very nice people; however; they are gaslighters... one price, suddenly and boom oh its this price now, what was agreed upon wasnt given. I showed ,told, them even got a call from Ruth about the Color gem i needed. THEY KNEW, no it comes back too dark, n they charge me 25 more then agreed. This IS WRONG! It is truly saad thst these people do these things to there customers! They have lost me as a customer, and probably others as well. Truly sad! read more

Great little shop and the owners are so nice prices are amazing too don't pass this place by

After going here more and more, I've lower quality experiences. They quoted me one price to repair a watch, then called later and upped the quote, then when I came to pick up they upped the quote again. It basically tripled in that time, just to replace a cheap japanese movement. Also, their battery replacement costs have been going up as well. Probably better places to go now where they won't jerk you around as much. The woman seems to try to milk you for as much as she can, whereas the man is somewhat more reasonable, but will sometimes succumb to pressure to charge more than is needed. read more

The price said at the time of inquiry is different from the price actually charged. I don't like this kind of clever way of doing business. I would be grateful if you told me honestly before I fixed it. read more

Was trying to find someone to fix an old (wind up) watch, they fixed it for $60. Plus if you like something in the store, you can bargain. I had a watch battery put in my bongo watch for $4.95. Also you can take your pieces there & they can tell you what it is worth. They also have an eclectic array of items. Princess Andie TM read more

I went here a few years back and had taken expense jewelry to be sized. I had to pay up front and when I went to pick up my items the ring was sized I corrected and the owner told me to just put a ring guard on it. Didn't I just pay to gave it sized.!when I told him it was unable he started yelling at me telling me to get out of his store. read more

I have always had a good experience here, with watch battery changes and purchasing of some jewelry. The prices have been reasonable.

I have been coming here to get the batteries on my watches replaced and fix any broken jewelry for over 9 years. I have a crazy amount of watches, nothing fancy. I just love watches. They only charge me $5 to replace the battery! And from time to time they have also fixed my jewelry. I have a two year old boy and he has broken his bracelet and my necklace twice! I have never had any issues with them damaging any of my property. I have also purchased a few silver rings from them. Prices have always been great. Friendly owners. read more

I brought a watch here for a battery replacement and got the watch back with horrible scratches completely covering the glass face of the watch. When I confronted them about it, they just said, "It was like that when you brought it in." wtf?!?! they just shrugged and that was it. I wish I had taken a photo of the before so I could prove it. Now it's totally unwearable. Fortunately it wasn't an expensive watch, but still, what a horrible experience. read more

My watch ran out of batteries and I was driving around when I looked these guys up. I called at 5:45 and told them I was on my way. The owner with an accent waited for me to get there, even though I got there after their closing time. They chanaged my batteries-cleaned my watch- was very accomadating. Excellent price and service. read more

I took my watch in to have the battery replaced and the guy working there proceeded to deeply scratch the back of my watch as he tried to open it. He was ultimately unable to open it, and when I demanded he return my watch to me before any more damage could be done, he refused, saying he would "fix" it. I demanded he return the watch immediately, but he still went about grinding/buffing the back to remove the deep grooves. I would not take anything here to be fixed, nor will I ever purchase from this store again. read more

I wasn't sure what to think of this place at first. I knew my mom had come here once to get my dads watch fixed but I had no idea how much she paid. My watch battery died and as a newly appointed adult, I didn't know how much it would cost to get it fixed. I walked into this shop and gave them my watch. I failed to ask for a quote, which could have been a mistake on my part, but it all turned out okay. They only charged me $15 for the new battery and the service! Thank you so much for being honest and doing great work. I will definitely be back here again in the future. They also have a lot of beautiful rings! read more

My husband broke the band on his watch and he lost a few essential pieces to the band as well. I started searching around for a decent watch repair shop and this place was recommended to me by a coworker. I stopped in after work one evening and I'm so glad I did! I was immediately greeted by all of the workers. Everyone there is so warm and friendly! I talked to a man who I think was the owner. He was able to diagnose the issue quickly and ordered the special parts needed to fix my husbands watch. It was repaired in 2 days and it looks as good as new! Very reasonable price too! I'll definitely keep coming back! read more

Super quick and friendly . Went in to get a new ring guard , really good price for a white gold guard and since I needed a new band for my watch and got it changed all for a good price. Was in there maybe ten minutes tops. Will be taking other things there. read more

I've been a customer for over 12 years - mostly changing batteries in watches and a couple of watch repairs. Their prices are very reasonable (one watch they repaired was fifty years old; the charge was under $200 - the other quotes I had from the few jewellers who would even undertake the repair were over $400). They are always very friendly and helpful. They always have an interesting and varied selection of jewelry for sale as well. read more

Came here to get 2 watch batteries and was charged $25, well above the $5-7 per battery advertised. I accept some watches require more expensive batteries but this was a clear hustle. Go anywhere else for watch batteries! read more

We stepped into this store on a whim when my wife and I noticed watches that caught our interest for sale in the window on the way to Starbucks. The lady inside was nice, albeit pushy, but seemed to have the best intentions. We placed a deposit on a watch they did not have in stock, but were EXPLICITY told we could decide on when it arrived. It was portrayed as a "no hassles and worry free deal." We also purchased other items in the store. We were notified three days late of the promised date that the item had arrived. But, I had found a better deal elsewhere and made a purchase since I could not wait any longer. I went in to get a refund and they were flat out RUDE and MEAN. I asked very politely that I just wanted my $100 deposit back and they were quite intent on not giving anything to me at all. Luckily, there were other customers in the store and I played up the victimzed shopper. I actually had to ask, "Please sir, I don't want any trouble...I just want my money please. After all, I did spend money when I first came in here..." They begrudgingly gave me my money back to my debit card. Its been several days since this transaction, and I still haven't seen a penny credited back to account. This place is shady at best. I routinely pay more to patronize small mom and pop establishments, but I will never recommend these thieves to anyone other than the local police. read more

I can't say enough nice things about this place. I have used their repair services, have had them custom make a ring, re-size watch bands and replace batteries as well as making purchases. Very fast and straight forward, no problems whatsoever. I had inherited a beaded necklace that I brought in to have re-strung. When I picked it up I wasn't thrilled with the clasp. They insisted that they do it again to my liking, no extra charge and very, very nice about it since it was my miscommunication when I dropped it off. I also took a design to them for a ring that I wanted made. They did it to the EXACT specifications and with a very reasonable turn around time. They are my go to local jeweler. Way easier than driving into LA! read more

I have a sizable collection of high end watches and Jimmy has been doing most of the service on them for years. Sometimes on my Omega or Rolex pieces, he has them sent out, but at a notable premium. He (and his wife Ruth) are such a pleasure to do business with! Jimmy does most of my simple repairs (bands, batteries etc) right on the spot. The prices for these simple "fixes" are usually just $5-$15 and up depending on the service. If you need a quick battery or band change he's quick and almost always in that 5-15 range. I can't see a reason to go anywhere else for my frequent watch needs. He also does all of my wife's jewelry resizing, stone setting etc. She also likes them very much! They always ask me to say Hi to my wife when I go alone. Friendly folks, good work and excellent pricing is how Ruby jewelry rolls! Sometimes, while there, I get a quick visit with their lovely son Michael! HI MICHAEL!! read more
