“Ronald is his name, Rogers is his last name. He is a genius. He doesn't like to answer stupid questions and texting is the best way to contact him, don't leave long messages, his time is valuable(he does love watches and clocks for goodness sakes)! All that said, he helped me resize a band for my wife's birthday present(a very important Bulova watch from her grandmother)and it turned out beautifully, he even showed me how to do it myself to fine tune the fit! He also changed the battery and set the time on a very important but almost worthless minnie watch for her as well(pictured). If you are just looking for info to then buy something online, go somewhere else. If you truly need a craftsman and a master of a dying art see Ron!!!”
“I visited Alvin Goldfarb Jeweler at the beginning of April looking for two Rolex Datejust watches for my wife and myself, as our anniversary is approaching at the end of May. Inspired by my father, who bought Rolex watches for my mom and himself for their wedding anniversary when he was 30, I wanted to continue this tradition in our family as I am also 30 now.From the moment I walked in, Lisha, my sales associate, was incredibly understanding and empathetic. She was genuinely touched by my story and went above and beyond to make my dream come true. Remarkably, she presented six available Datejust options for me to purchase immediately for my wife, a feat that is quite rare with other ADs.Lisha also guided me through the available options for my Datejust, ensuring that I would likely receive it before our anniversary. She even took the initiative to speak with the store owner, Mr. Steven Goldfarb, to make this special purchase a reality for my wife and me.The entire experience was seamless, pleasant, and highly professional. I am immensely grateful to Lisha and Steven for their exceptional customer service and dedication to making our anniversary celebration truly memorable.Highly recommended for anyone looking for a personalized and attentive Rolex purchasing experience!Updated 05/21/2024:Although my Datejust is still on the way, Lisha surprised me by making the 40mm blue dial Yacht-Master available for purchase. Now, I can wear it alongside my wife for our anniversary trip to San Juan Island! I am also extremely lucky that Mr. Steven Goldfarb personally adjusted the bracelet for me during pickup. Their customer service was top-notch!”

10222 NE 8th St, Bellevue“This is the second watch purchase from Porcello’s. Dawson is completely professional and the whole team is also too. If you are within traveling distance, it was worth the 4hr drive for me. However, they do ship quickly and with eBay Authentication as well, which is efficient! Pricing is one of the best too, so shortlist them when shopping for watches. Thx again Porcello’s, until the next time! S”

1530 5th Ave, Seattle“I purchased jewelry from various parts of the world, and I must say that Ben Bridge and their staff are the best I've encountered. They make you feel incredibly relaxed, even providing treats for my dog and offering coffee, etc.A special thanks to David (and Elizabeth from the Bellevue branch) who possesses in-depth knowledge about watches and helped me find the perfect piece for a special occasion.Also, thank you for the book :)”
“My fiancé and I loved working with L T Denny for my Tacori engagement ring! We went to them because they had great reviews and we found that they have so many 5 star reviews for a reason! I would highly recommend them! :)”
“Great staff, focused on understanding your needs and ensuring customers walk out with a smile in their faces and with the pieces that they are passionate about. Nicole was fantastic and very patient helping us with our choices and Maymi took time to get to know us better and help us get to know her better.”
“Christian was incredible in helping us today. He is a true expert in diamonds and was endlessly patient with us. He was welcoming, not pushy at all, and made the entire experience such a positive one. Thank you, Christian!”
“Yebin was great, she was knowledgeable and patient. No external pressure to go faster than your timeline. Would highly recommend going in if you’re at all considering an omega”
“I came into WT Hoyt's store this morning hoping they had a pin for my watch. Low and behold they did. my watch was fixed within 5 minutes and it only cost me 3 bucks. this store is where you want to go for all types of watch repair or even clock repairs as well. Its amazing when your in seattle and come across an exquisite shop such as WT HOYT Co. This is where i will go for all watch repair needs!!!!”
“Excellent service at the Lahina ))and the Bellevue stores. High quality jewelry not inexpensive but quality and service make it worth it. They are " The real deal. ". My story- The earrings i bought in Lahina needed adjustment. I called Bellevue and the staff were extremely helpful even - I was not even buying anything. I went back to add a pendant a few months later. Today i completed the set with a ring - staff again very helpful with matching the color- offered to send a gold ring with the correct color pearl to the factory with the white gold ring i wanted to switch the pearls and to size it without additional charge. I know that nothing is "free" but the service, the fact that they remembered me 5 months later and being gracious counts!”
“THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST JEWELERS I HAVE EVER SEEN, HE MAKES COSTUME JEWELRY AS WELL. PRICES ARE UNBELIEVABLE. ON TOP OF THAT, HE HAS BEEN IN THE BUSINESS OVER 30 YEARS. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THAT ENGAGEMENT RING, NECKLACE, RING...PLEASE LOOK NO FURTHER. AWESOME AWESOME IS ALL THAT I CAN SAY.”
“I recently had a great experience at Ben Bridge Bellevue Square , where I received exceptional service from Anthony. He was very helpful and patient, taking the time to assist me in finding the perfect watch. His knowledge and expertise were impressive, and his professionalism and friendly demeanor made the experience truly enjoyable. I am delighted with my new Rolex and would highly recommenda Anthony to anyone looking for a top-notch watch buying experience. JM”
“The lady was super helpful and nice with my questions and was willing to help me look through their catalogue for a specific piece. Lovely place with great customer service would recommend !”
“My soon to be wife and I went here and we got a replacement ring since we have a 2year warranty on it. The ring was even better then the one we had originally got from the Pandora at southcenter which don't go to the South center Pandora go to the Bellevue one! The service was excellent and the staff were amazing we were in and out free of charge in minutes ? thank you again for your great customer service. Don't ever date this woman unless you want to have some fun just make sure to get out before she spends all your money she is a opportunist once the money is gone she moves on.”
“I've been searching around for a piece of jewelry for a family member to mourn the loss of another, I received the most amazing guidance and help from a staff member at the redmond fred meyer jeweler. I'm kicking myself for forgetting her name, but her knowledge and calm guidance thru the available pieces made my experience the best I've had at any jeweler. She wasn't pushy, she was very friendly, and she knew the products she was representing!! I will now solely be a customer of Fred meyer jeweler in the future. Today she was wearing all black with dirty blonde hair, I'm sorry for forgetting your name but you are a beautiful rockstar!! Fred meyer needs more people like you!!! In the midst of a difficult search that I'm doing, you were a shining light of happiness!!”
“Shout out to the assistant manager of this location, definitely a hard worker and it shows! She turned my chaotic Christmas shopping spree into a wholesome experience! Thanks girly!”

1501 Pike Place Hillclimb Walk #433, Seattle“I was on my first trip to the US from Australia, when I saw this shop. There is an overwhelming collection of Jade stuff. Original jade is hard to come by in Brisbane.The owner was this very elderly gentleman who helped me pick a ring cos that's what I wanted. It's a beautiful translucent one that almost glows in the sunlight. On more than one occasion, I felt (and still feel), that it has almost magical powers to heal pain. That's just me. However this is the first time I observed this, despite my small collection of so called very powerful crystals. Something comes close to this might be the Auralite 23 that I got from Crystal Council website.I wish they sold online and overseas. I will have to travel once more to this store from Australia. Should have got more stuff. I really didn't expect this place to sell such beautiful and potentially powerful stuff. I'm just a novice and this was incredible.”
“My husband and I stepped into the mall to wait out traffic and just have a nice walk around. When I tell you we are broke newly weds settling into our mid twenties I mean, we look it too.
We had recently watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s and decided to poke our heads in the shop knowing we didn’t belong in there, but wanted to check out a real life shop like the movie.
A store clerk excitedly welcomed us in. We timidly looked at everything, and the same sales clerk, introduced herself and started showing us everything. Her name is Athena :) We made it even clearer by letting her know we couldn’t afford anything and she made it clear she didn’t mind that, and was happy to show us anything we’d like just for fun! She let me try on stuff and told us all about it. She was so happy, bright and cheerful.
She never pushed us to buy anything. She said she also couldn’t afford what we were looking at and laughed with us. We had the best time ever and agreed that if we strike it rich, we’ll be back. :) thank you for having us! You made our day!”
“Kim is incredibly professional and thoughtful, and he did a wonderful job resetting my engagement diamond on a new band. I don’t know a lot about jewelry, and he made me feel very comfortable and answered all my questions with kindness. Highly recommend!”
