Seiko Prospex Land 'Alpinist'

Wow! Great experience. Have had my eye on a very specific watch and stumbled upon this store. Went in and asked and they had the exact watch, with my preferred dial color and strap and at a great price. No brainer purchase. Wonderful customer service and beautiful watch. Looking forward to my next watch purchase from here!

See all

Had a wonderful experience at Haltom's Downtown Fort Worth yesterday. I came in to ask for help…read morewith adjusting the fit on the bracelet of an older GMT watch and for adjusting the annual calendar function on another timepiece. I was greeted like a family member as soon as I walked in the door. I want to give a special thank you to John Clingman for his excellent customer service. Not only did he help me with the two things I needed walking in, but he also very patiently helped me find a gift for my wife's birthday. He then proceeded to advise me on acquiring a very special Rolex anniversary diver watch that I have been long waiting for, but was not 100% sold on. I'm so glad I bought it - because he was right! I absolutely love the watch, and it hasn't left my wrist since leaving the store! I hope the valet parking across the street returns soon, as Haltom's is truly something anyone looking for fine jewelry and timepieces must experience.

I made my way to the back of the store before anyone acknowledged my presence. A woman finally asked if I was looking for watches. I replied that I was, and she pointed out the 4 to 5 remaining men's watches. One of the watches really caught my eye, so I pulled out my phone to look up its specifications. At that moment, she snapped at me, saying, "NO PICTURES!" Her tone was loud and caught me off guard, making me feel embarrassed. I quickly put my phone away, but she continued to lecture me about the reasons for the policy. She said something along the lines of, "If you were allowed to take pictures, we would just post these online." At that point, I was both annoyed and embarrassed, so I decided to put away my credit card and leave. It's no surprise that this place is going out of business.

If you are a gentleman who is protective of your woman, then please take the time to read this. I…read morewill try to be direct and concise. I stopped by with my girlfriend to look at rings, and when we walked in, she did not feel comfortable and didn't want to stay. After I had exchanged a few words with the salesman, I too did not feel comfortable nor wish to continue the interaction. Another customer walked in, and after a brief moment, the salesman excused himself to go address the new customer. My girlfriend and I took that opportunity to gracefully exit and try to do so discreetly. This is when I realized we were locked in the store. The salesman had a key-fob that unlocked the door when a customer rang the doorbell, and in order to leave, he had to be the one to let you out. Unfortunately, I had to get the salesman's attention in order to leave. He asked if we were done talking with him, and after my "yes", he said, "well, before I let you out, do you want to come over here and get a business card?" Immediately, I felt trapped inside this store, wanting to leave gracefully and discreetly, but I couldn't. Let me be clear. I do not appreciate being locked in a store and not being able to protect my woman (even by simply leaving the building) when she feels uncomfortable or threatened. I have absolutely no intention of returning. I will add, before we went to this place, we went to Duffy's Jewelry, and had an absolute 10/10 great experience. They were very pleasant, professional, and extremely kind and knowledgeable. Both my girlfriend and I felt very comfortable in there, and to be honestly transparent, I truly want to give them my business. I recommend you do the same.

Exceptional experience - honest, educational, zero pressure…read more I stopped in to have a Rolex evaluated that I had recently purchased as an entry-level piece. Kevin, the owner, took a significant amount of time walking me through the watch in detail--its age, condition, wear patterns, polishing history, bracelet stretch, and overall authenticity--without ever making me feel rushed or talked down to. What really stood out was the honesty. He had no incentive to tell me I did well on the purchase, yet he confirmed that I paid a solid price and explained, why. He also clearly explained what wear was normal, what was cosmetic, and what would (or wouldn't) be worth correcting. No upselling, no scare tactics, no pressure to trade up. Kevin went further and educated me on differences between older and newer Rolex models, case profiles, movements, sizes, and pricing tiers--especially when comparing dress models versus sports models. It felt more like a conversation with a knowledgeable collector than a sales pitch. The shop itself is impressive, with a wide range of watches and jewelry, but the real value here is trust. If you're new to watches, buying pre-owned, or just want an honest opinion from someone who knows their craft, this is the place. I'll absolutely be back when it's time for the next piece. -Nicholas

I am someone who is well above the average when it comes to the knowledge of Rolex, the history of Rolex and the movements of Rolex when I walked in, I was greeted by some heavyset man with thick glasses, and he came on very strong and somewhat passive aggressive. He told me there was no possible way that I could ever be allocated to watch since I do not live locally I know this to not be true because of my history with Rolex in different cities due to being a pilot, he began to show me some other watches, and he seemed very pushy about me purchasing a Breitling, and I was just turned off by his overall energy and demeanor. It wasn't that he was outright rude, but he just came off very strong and pushy. Definitely not somebody that I want to do business with which is why I didn't even buy a watch while I was there. I ended up speaking to the manager and telling her about my experience before I knew she was actually the manager, and she was extremely nice and accommodating and wanted to make it right. But to be told just because I live out of town, there's no way that I could be placed on a list of potentially be allocated to watch, even though I have a buying history was the first time in my life that I've ever heard that and I've been into a dozen Rolex stores throughout my lifetime. Other than that experience, the store looked very pretty and very nice and the other staff seem to be very friendly.

All three of my wedding sets mean so much to me! : 1. My original set... while not purchased at collections they did resize it for me and the exact gold and color was absolutely perfect! I was so nervous to let someone else have my rings in their care, but collections made me feel confident and trustworthy as opposed to weary and nervous like I would have at any big box retail store. 2. My birthday present in 2025.. after this surprise my husband went in to detail about the process he went through to make sure every detail was perfect, and it sure is perfect! From approving the mold to the final product on my finger, they truly and obviously put in a lot of work and attention to detail! 3. My "20 year" gift.. while I'm only 33, my husband and I met when I was 13 and he was 15. He wanted a piece to commemorate the journey we've been through, and my has he and Collections did an incredible job! I will always recommend collections, they care for your jewelry as it is their own, and the custom pieces I have are incredible. You can tell they have years of experience and a great team to work with!

Sad to see negative reviews relating to customer service as this is certainly not the experience we…read morehave ever had. Yes, they are busy, yes you might have to wait but the attention to details and service you will receive is the reason and worth it.
