Burton's has previously overhauled my ancient watch that has sentimental value and they did a great job. Today I took it in because the clasp was loose. They not only repaired the clasp in 5 minutes at no charge, but cleaned it as well!

They rebuilt my great grandmothers wedding ring, with the same stones and platinum (with a bit of added platinum, as it was about 100 years old, and bent horribly out of shape!) I couldn't be happier, it's beautiful, a truly priceless family heirloom

I took an old and valuable piece of jewelry in to be repaired. It was done well, quickly, and at a lesser cost than I was expecting. Some of the staff were brisk and businesslike, some warm and charming. I wasn't shopping for anything, but, while waiting for an estimate on the repair cost, I looked through the store and they have an interesting selection of items. I would absolutely return.

Great shop. I have my rings resized here when needed. They are reasonable in their pricing. I've also had a jewelry appraisal done. They have a quick turnaround for their work.

A few years after the loss of my husband I decided to remove my wedding ring. However it could only be removed by having it cut off as it would not slip off of my ring finger. This was not an easy task for me to do and rather an emotional one for me. Phil Burton showed me the kindest of care during his service to do the task at hand. He cleaned my wedding ring and presented it to me in an envelope.
When I asked how much I owed him for his service he declined to take any money at all. I left feeling that there is genuine kindness in this world and I am forever grateful to Phil for making this time less painful for me. Thank You Phil Burton you are a real gem.
