San Jose came through in the biggest way. I knew the engagement ring was perfect and I waited to see my fiance's reaction when I got down on one knee and she could not have been more excited and happy. She can't stop looking at this ring and talking about how it is perfectly designed for her. And trust me, she is a tough critic. We went through multiple re-designs in the first stages of the process, and Collin/Robert/Adam and the entire staff could not have been more patient, understanding, and helpful.
I've also brought watches in and referred family members and friends and not once have I had a bad experience. This is truly a family business that treats everyone who walks in like one of their own. We will be lifelong customers without a doubt!

Loved the service and the product. I purchased a graduation ring for my wife with 3 weeks until graduation. They usually take 6-7 weeks to complete but Adam with San Jose helped me out and got it to me in less than 3 weeks. My wife was surprised and we are thrilled with the product. Thanks to Adam and San Jose Jewelers for making it happen!

Yesterday we had the best ring experience ever, the Ladies and Gentlemen were all helpful and sweet. Lady that the help us out (I wish I remembered her name she spoke Spanish). She took the time and explained every option to us until we found a combination that my daughter loved. They were so patient, very nice, very helpful and knowledgeable of their product. We were very satisfied until my daughter saw a ring option online, So I called today and asked if I could make a change to the ring.
They worked hard on working with my daughters wants. We were able to do the change because the ring had not gone to drafting nor production. So they were more than kind and helpful to make the changes to her ring. Adam and the Boss were beyond kind to help us out. We are very Grateful for this experience and customer service I am defiantly recommending them to all my peeps.

San Jose truly has the best customer service and they are very fast and efficient. Recently had 2 pendants with chains that are absolutely eye catching. Look forward to working with them more in the future. I would recommend them for any custom jeweler!

I cannot say enough about San Jose Jewelry! They made my engagement ring dreams come true! My fiance and I worked with Collin & Adam directly. They were very knowledgeable and so professional!
