Watch sellers beware and don’t waste your time: 10 year Buyer and seller here with my own location— Gerson ‘the watchmaker’ starts chewing my Rolex on the PHONE over ‘diamonds’ which makes no sense because the original factory parts are included, also makes even less sense: before seeing a picture or knowing the information, condition, didn’t ask if it was a full set, full links, the source etc.
Gerson starts immediately negating the watch because of the F VVS diamond bezel that’s listed $4000 and dial is a $2800 part anywhere.
Mind that I INCLUDE the ORIGINAL FACTORY PARTS as a bonus— the watch could be back to original with swapping out the diamond dial and bezel in 10 minutes, then they can even sell the parts separately online: diamond dial $2000 on eBay and the bezel for $3000, thus beating everyone on there by $1000.
I was just MATCHING the OFFER I got in DIAMOND DISTRICT and trying to save the trip. Once again — this guy does not know the correct questions to ask, just tunnel vision to get the lowest priced item, in turn blowing the deal for the owner because he didn’t even collect the information in its entirety. Don’t waste your time. Probably a guy that changes batteries and removes...
Read more5/19/25 I picked up 4 watches today that were serviced. Three needed battery replacement and one needed band size adjustment. Except for 1 watch, they were given to me bulk packaged all in one plastic bag with no protection to prevent them from abrading each other. I brought the improper packaging to the owner. And I then said I wanted to check the gold plated watch for scratches. I did find some scratches on the clasp and showed them to him. He said that was from wearing the watch, implying that it was my fault, and not accepting responsibility for unacceptable packaging and handling, I advised him that I wore the watch only 2 times and that the scratches were not from wearing. Deferring responsibility to a customer for an error on the part of East Islip Jewelers is completely and totally unacceptable.
Prior review for another service : I came in to have a wristband size adjusted for 1 watch and a battery replaced on another watch. The young lady who assisted me did a great job. And the service was...
Read moreI recently found my high school graduation ring. I graduated High school in 1983. I haven’t seen it in over 35 years. I thought it was lost.
It was black it was so dirty. I didn’t think there was anything that could be done. I took it to East Islip Jeweler to see if they could clean it. I wasn’t even sure if it was a real silver or gold
They tested it and found out that it was real silver and cleaned it for me. They also had to resize it because it was too small.
It looks amazing. I’m so happy I got it done.
The professionalism and customer service was absolutely outstanding. I highly recommend them. I will tell all my friends and family this is the place to go if you need to repair work done. They even cleaned my wedding band and engagement...
