    DW-6900 series

    Checked out Time Center today and it exceeded expectations. Dee was welcoming, helpful, and made the whole process easy. She gave me a great deal on two G-Shock models and helped me get started on my collection. Will definitely be back.

    Seiko his & hers

    My boyfriend and I just made our very first big watch purchase here, and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly attentive without ever making us feel rushed. They patiently walked us through all of our options, answering every single question (and we had a lot as first-time buyers!). What stood out the most was how knowledgeable Dee was about the details and craftsmanship of each watch, but also about what would best suit my boyfriend's style and needs. She took the time to explain everything in a way that made us feel confident in our choice. On top of that, their pricing was more than fair for the quality and service we received. We never once felt pressured. What could've been an overwhelming process into something genuinely exciting and memorable. We left not only with a beautiful watch, but also with the kind of experience that makes you want to come back again. I truly recommend this store to anyone looking for honesty, patience, and expertise. Thank you, Dee!

    Love my Seiko from Time Center so much, I came back to get my lady a Christmas Gift. Thank you, Time Center!

    Rare and vintage SUTTON tank watch (very dainty)
    Rezianne R.

    I have 4 vintage seiko watches that needed battery and Time Center did it in 20 minutes. What I was most impressed about was them fixing my very rare and dainty Sutton Tank watch (measuring about 14-15mm). They told me that I needed a new movement because the battery corroded the parts and it will take a week. I didn't mind that because they knew where to order the parts/movement. My whole collection is working and I'm a happy customer!

    Had an amazing experience with the folks over at Time Center! I've been looking for a new watch to gift myself for an accomplishment in my career and I found the exact model I wanted. The owners and their daughter were all so friendly and helpful and really made me feel welcomed there. They were able to carry the warranty on my new watch as well as offer a really good deal on the watch I wanted and I will certainly be going back here for repairs, maintenance and to purchase new watches! If I could give this business a 10 star review I would!

    Great experience! The couple who run the shop were friendly, straightforward, and professional. Such a great family owned business. Picked up a beautiful Seiko watch I'm really happy with, and they also replaced the battery on one of my older watches right away and also gifted me and my girlfriend with a great watch box. I'll definitely be back for future repairs and more watches.

    Came to get a regular battery to replace solar powered battery that was losing charge quite often. Saw this sign and had to check in.

    Took a little bit of time to replace the solar powered battery with a regular battery in my G-Shock G-Shock G-2130. While I waited I enjoyed looking at the watches under the glass though. There was a large selection of G-Shocks. Friendly employee who helped.

    Do you guys have a way to see what you have in stock or social media?

    No. The best bet is to give them a call. If you have a reference number on a particular watch, that would be even better. They are super helpful on the phone too.

    Do you do engraving on the back of watches?

    I reached out on Yelp asking multiple jewelers about medium thick chains for memorial necklaces…read moresince we want something durable. Guy from Jeweler's Touch stood out in his quick responses and helpfulness. When we arrived that evening to speak to someone, Brandon was amazing. He was friendly, super patient, and explained everything. He understood how difficult it was to look for rose gold chains, especially when thicker too. I was super indecisive and he gave me all the time in the world to look through their gold book which had all kinds of designs and thickness scaled to life size so I could place my pendant on it to imagine how it would look. He also brought out samples of chain types as I picked out ones to see if I'd like the look in person. He ended up finding an estate gold chain that looked absolutely perfect for my husband's pendant in shine and style. We tried it for a few days (they give you 30 days hassle-free) and my husband knew it wasn't the right length of style for his personal preference and our tuggy toddlers within one day. It was gorgeous and I wished it worked out, but maybe not for us. We came back a few days later after Christmas Eve and Brandon helped me out again with the return and gave me suggestions for the length of my husband's necklace based on preference. I saw people coming in and out during the two times I went and I see why. These people are amazing, patient, knowledgeable, super friendly and not pushy at all. They want to help make happy customers who are looking for that perfect jewelry. Although we are still on the search for the "perfect" chain for each of us (we are not major jewelry people but need this to be just right for us in every way), I appreciate the help that Jeweler's Touch gave and would recommend them for anyone looking for a custom piece or specific jewelry services.

I was simply shopping for a pair of everyday diamond studs, yet they made us feel like lifelong clients from the start. As a small business owner myself, I know how rare it is to walk into another company and feel truly taken care of the way they took care of us. That type of feeling and service sadly doesn't exist much anymore. I loved the experience and service so much that I already plan on visiting again tomorrow to look for a few additional pieces. Seeing the owner actively working, shaking hands, welcoming everyone, and creating such a warm and personable atmosphere made all the difference. You can genuinely feel how much they value their customers. Beautiful jewelry is one thing, but amazing service and genuine hospitality are what create loyal customers, and they absolutely have both. Amazing experience, and a business I'll absolutely continue supporting for years to come

Since I couldn't see them in person, I had to trust his judgment, and he truly understood what I was looking for.

    When someone walks in to buy an engagement ring, they are trusting you with an important moment in…read moretheir life, and that trust was completely mishandled here. I came in just before Christmas because I planned to propose to my girlfriend on an upcoming vacation. When I first walked in, I told the sales associate that I was looking for a quality engagement ring and wanted to see their better options, since this was an important purchase for me. I also made it very clear that this was my first time buying jewelry, that I had a firm $10,000 budget for the entire ring, and that I only wanted a natural diamond, not lab grown. During our discussion comparing natural versus lab grown, she mentioned that natural diamonds are generally viewed more favorably, which reinforced my decision to stick with a natural stone. There was absolutely no confusion about my budget or what I was looking for. We went over it several times, a $10,000 budget for the complete ring and natural diamonds only. Despite that, I was sold a band for about $7,000 that did not include the center diamond, with very clear guidance that a natural two carat diamond would fit this exact setting and could be added as soon as I returned from my vacation, all within the remainder of my budget. I was told this would be no problem at all and that this was a normal process. I trusted that advice and planned accordingly. I also explained that proposing on my trip was the priority, and I was comfortable upgrading the center diamond immediately afterward, as I was advised. The ring itself was beautiful and the temporary stone looked great in the setting, so I felt confident proposing with it and completing the ring upon my return. I was genuinely excited to propose with this ring. My girlfriend loved it immediately, and it already carries emotional and sentimental value for both of us. That is what makes this situation so upsetting. I came back to the store expecting to complete the ring exactly as promised, only to find out that what I had been assured was possible simply was not. Now I am faced with the possibility of having to start over entirely with a different band, despite the fact that this ring is already tied to our engagement and the memory of that moment. What made this even more frustrating is what I learned afterward. Multiple other jewelers explained to me that in an engagement ring, the majority of the budget should go toward the center diamond, not the band. I was essentially guided to spend roughly 70 percent of my total budget on the setting alone, which left me in an impossible position from the start. While the band itself is truly beautiful, with very high quality and bright diamonds, I later learned that pairing it with a natural two carat diamond anywhere near my remaining budget was never realistic. When I returned to the store, and saw the same sales lady's buy the entire story changed. I was immediately shown a $15,000 center diamond on top of the $7,000 ring. When I reminded her of my budget, the sales associate became irritated and dismissive. Only after pushing back did she return with a noticeably yellow, low quality diamond and tried to sell it to me for $8,000, which made no sense given the quality of the ring I had already purchased. It felt like I was being pushed to accept whatever they could sell me instead of what had been promised. After that, I was told she would search and contact me within a week. It has now been over two weeks with no call, no email, and no follow up of any kind. Once they had my money, communication stopped completely. Since then, I have visited multiple other jewelers, and more than one of them immediately recognized the situation and told me they have heard similar stories from customers coming from this same store. They also explained that getting a nice two carat natural diamond within the remaining budget was never realistic with the quality of the setting I was sold. At those stores, I was educated, treated with care, and given realistic options. The difference in professionalism and integrity was night and day. What I learned through all of this is that buying jewelry should be an educational experience, where all the facts are laid out clearly so you can make an informed decision. At those other stores, I felt guided and respected. Here, I felt bait and switched, not advised kindly through a once in a lifetime purchase. Now I am left with an expensive, incomplete engagement ring and a situation that should never have happened. What should have been an exciting and meaningful experience turned into stress, disappointment, and feeling misled. If you are shopping for an engagement ring and do not already know exactly what you are doing, I strongly recommend going somewhere else. Clear communication, realistic expectations, and basic follow through should be the minimum standard for a purchase of this size, and unfortunately that was not my experience here at all.

After the second woman asked me to clean my rings, I accepted, and wow, were my rings bright and shiny again. That cleaning was much-needed and complimentary. Terry was amazing! She helped me and answered all my questions. I wanted a classic tennis bracelet with five carat natural diamonds, four prongs, seven inches in length, D-G color grade, and slightly included clarity. I knew what I wanted, but I had been looking for the past few months at other jewelry stores for it with no luck. With Terry's assistance, I left with the most beautiful tennis bracelet. My husband bought me a tennis bracelet with 4.84 carats, four prongs, seven inches, F/G color, and very slightly included. It was a little too long for me, so she was able to take a link off at no extra cost and it was finished in less than 30 minutes. My bracelet is such a timeless (stunning) piece that I can wear every day by itself or stacked with my other bracelets. I'm just in awe of its beauty and can't believe it's mine. I'm happy I was able to find my bracelet here and support a family-owned business. They care about the happiness of their customers and it was apparent today. Clean and welcoming environment, efficient, friendly service, and staff who are knowledgeable, well-informed about jewelry... if you're in the Orange County area, please come and check this jewelry store out for yourself. I will definitely be a repeat customer and come back for more pieces.

    I do not recommend Watch Wears in Orange, CA based on my personal experience…read more In 2013, I purchased a yellow diamond ring surrounded by white diamonds for a significant amount of money. It came with an appraisal stating a value of $14,000. Shortly after, I returned to have the ring resized and was told they also buy gold and jewelry. I brought in additional items and was given store credit. Later, I returned to use the remaining credit and was told by the owner that I had no credit left and would have to pay again. There was no clear record provided, no transparency, and no effort to resolve the discrepancy. I was essentially told the credit didn't exist anymore, and I had no documentation to challenge it at the time. In 2026, I scheduled an appointment to sell the same ring back to them. I clearly stated on the phone that I was bringing in a ring originally purchased from their store. When I arrived, they inspected it along with the appraisal, then told me they were not buying diamonds due to market conditions and lab-grown diamonds affecting resale value. This should have been communicated when I made the appointment. Instead, I wasted time going in for a meeting that should never have been scheduled. Overall, my experience with this business has been inconsistent, poorly communicated, and unprofessional. While they do carry attractive jewelry, I personally do not trust their business practices or transparency.
