Swanson Jewelers — Local services in Arlington

I have had my watch resized here and a damaged ring repaired and resized. Swanson Jewelers is like stepping back in time, where quality and customer satisfaction matter.

If I had known how the ring would look afterwards I would have not have gone forward with the resizing.

I took the ring to Rebekah Brooks and they said it was poorly done and that the back should have been cut open and a replica piece put in. Now I have to pay an extra 150+ to have the ring restored.

They were fine for resizing...

I’ve never had nicer and more helpful service in a jewelry shop. I arrived just before closing time with the back having fallen off my inexpensive Timex. Never would have tried having a good quality jewelry/watchmaker try to repair this cheap watch if a knowledgeable friend hadn’t urged me to try Swanson’s. I was received with courtesy, served immediately and had my fix done in minutes. Cost: $5. To risk a pun, this...
