I brought a 75 ear old Rolex to Howie to restore, after Rolex charged me $100 and told me they couldn't help me. Howie accepted the watch with the caution that it may take a year to complete the work. I accepted the conditions. I about a year, and after a couple calls Howie found the right parts to fit, and returned my restored Rolex. I was really pleased, and he charged me less than he estimated. I followed up, and had my 7 year old Rolex Submariner serviced. Expecting a $500 bill (a little less than what I was told by Rolex), Howie looked at the watch and said it really only needed to be cleaned up and adjusted. It keeps better time than it has since I got it 7 years ago, and it cost $45 instead. He also fixed a house clock while I was waiting for $15. He could have taking me for a ride, but instead was honest and did great work. I recommend him highly
I therefore highly recommend this establishment. Competence, fair pricing, and human scale interaction.
I took my mechanical Swiss watch in today as it had been malfunctioning (going way too fast, picking up as many as 10 minutes within an hour). Howie worked on it while I waited, and in about 15 minutes, handed it back to me. It has been 24 hours and the watch is now keeping time perfectly. The cost of the repair was very reasonable as well.
Thanks Howie!
This review is extremely long overdue! I went into Howie's a number of months ago simply to get a replacement band for my grandmother's watch. I was greeted by Howie's daughter, who also works there. Explained what I was looking for, was promptly brought a recommended option for a band that was ideal. Howie came out himself and took care of replacing the band while I was there, not needing to leave it and return. In the ten minutes or so this took I had an enjoyable conversation with both Howie and his daughter about their business, moving to their current location from their previous in South Troy, and their passion for what they do and their current location, as well as the fond memories they had of their original location. It was an enjoyable experience on all fronts. And the price couldn't of been better! I highly recommend Howie's for any jewellery and repair needs you may have!
When it came time for my fiancé to start looking for a ring for our engagement he chose Howie's and I'm so glad he did! We ended up designing my ring together with Candice who was great to work with! I had something very specific in mind that I had a hard time conveying since I didnt know a lot about rings and terms but Candice figured out exactly what I wanted and it came out perfect! It's unique and gorgeous! Candice and Howie were a pleasure to work with and continue to be. I'm looking forward to designing our wedding bands with her.
Howie's is amazing. All of the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Their work is impeccable; I've had watches and chains fixed, engraving done and bought jewelry there. I will never go elsewhere ever again. That's a guarantee!!! Thanks Howie!!!!
General - the place has a family feel to it. Two other customers came in as I was there, and it was clear that they were repeat customers, and had a personal relationship with the staff.
