Ok, I visited Genesis to have them inspect my wife's Mother's ring. It has a diamond, and our 4 children's birth stones. It's about 30 years old. Janet, the Goldsmith at Genesis, might be the most honest jeweler I've ever talked with. She inspected the ring, indicated the gem stones are very old and coukd break during a repair.

So, we're quite glad we found Genesis. Chris took care of both watches -- gratis -- and now we have a favorite jewelry where we'll make our...
