This is a lovely shop. The owner is very kind and knowledgeable. I had my ring resized elsewhere and the stone was loose a result. I took my ring to GVS and he fixed the setting. I wish I had gone to GVS instead of the first place! They do a great job with jewelry cleaning, and have a beautiful inventory. I highly recommend for any jewelry-related needs!

Got my fiancé her engagement ring here. It was hand crafted to literal perfection. They helped me decide the style and pick out the stones and made the process so easy. When I saw the ring my jaw literally dropped. It looked gorgeous and the best part, it was within my budget!!! I couldn’t have been happier that I got my ring here. I love it and so does my fiancé!

I went to GVS jewelers for an unconventional need - to find several loose stones for a project. The owner was very patient, helping me find what I needed, stayed open late to help, and was very knowledgeable in all the different kind of stones and settings. Unexpectedly I learned a lot about jewelry making. The pieces in the store are unique and well made and the experience was extremely personalized. Highly recommend!

I got my engagement ring resized here recently and I was pleasantly surprised at what a lovely job was done! My ring is super delicate with etching work on the sides and everything was handled splendidly.

Wonderful work! I had my wedding ring sized and when it came back it looked better than ever. All the original etchings were intact, the ring fit perfectly, fair price, and all polished. Would definitely recommend!

I got a customized necklace with a bezel setting of baguette shaped diamond made by the GVS owner. He was super friendly and highly co-operative at communication. The setting exceeded my expectations, comparing to a few pieces of Tiffany pieces I have. Very happy with the results. I have been shopping for a minimalist setting online for while, now it is finally here.

Amazing quality and professionalism!! I brought my grandmother’s opal ring here to be refurbished and the final product exceeded any expectations I could have imagined. Vladimir brought this ring back to life while still maintaining the original look— thank you so much I could not be happier!

I had a ring resized from 6 to 7. And told them that I needed it really quick because my girlfriends birthday was coming. The ring came back really quick (as promised), cleaned and resized so perfectly that I couldnt even see the repair. They matched the gold color and shape perfectly.

We had an excellent experience here. We got a new stone with a new setting put into my wifes favorite ring. The stone was from GVS, and all the work was done by the excellent husband and wife team that own the store. Weve now had the ring for a few months, and shes very happy with the quality of the stone and the workmanship. Their customer service was excellent, and the store is bright, clean and well stocked. This place is a fine example of really good local service from people whove been all over and bring a lot of what the find back here to the Boston area. Highly recommended place to do business.

Great craftsmanship and service. The husband and wife who run the store are very friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of great designs, and one of a kind pieces you would never find at a big retailer. I bought an engagement ring there several months ago and couldnt be happier. The ring is spectacular, and I received a handwritten card from the owners thanking me for my purchase.

I had a fantastic experience at GVS Jewelers. I was looking to find out if a ring I inherited was real or costume and just happened upon GVS. The owner was so friendly and knowledgeable and he cleaned and repaired my ring transforming it into a sparkling gorgeous piece that I barely recognized! I highly recommend them.

This is a wonderful neighborhood jeweler! We stopped by because I bent my heirloom engagement ring band and Vladimir was so friendly and quickly made it like new for a very reasonable price. We are so happy that we happened to find him - we will be back to have custom wedding bands made. He made us feel at home in his shop and treated us like close friends.

Our experience at GVS could not have gone better! Vlad was extremely knowledgeable and helped us find the perfect wedding band. He had a fabulous collection and he was able to find us a band that was a perfect match to my fiances engagement ring! If you have any jewelry needs, stop by GVS, and let Vlad help. If you cant find something in the store, he specializes in custom-made jewelry! An exceptional store with exceptional service.

After hearing good reviews, I reached out to this jeweller to have a ring appraised. Pleasant conversation with the wifes owner, and an appointment was scheduled. Upon entering the shop, I was greeted warmly by the owner, Vladimir. I explained to him my reason for the appointment, and he started the process of measuring and recording all pertinent information regarding the ring. The entire process was professional and pleasant. In a few days, the appraisel arrived in the mail with everything that I needed to satisfy insurance requirements. Thank you, Vlad and wife for a great experience!

I came here looking for a white gold chain to match my wifes locket. I got a great price for a really nice chain, and it was exactly the right specification for the locket. I even got help with getting photos to put in the locket. You can always order cheap stuff online, but you get the best treatment and quality from places like this.

The wonderful owners of GVS are truly some of the greatest people Ive ever done business with in Watertown (and we have checked out other jewelers). They treated my wife and I like more than just customers, we felt like friends when we went in there. Not only are their personalities warm and inviting, they also do fantastic work. My wife and I will only be going to GVS for our jewelry needs in the future.

I had to have a ring cut off and he did an absolutely amazing job turning it into a gorgeous necklace. Attention to detail and personality will bring me back for more.

I really recommend this. Since the minut I walked in the guy was so nice. My engagement ring wasn’t my right size and he fixed it. Now my ring looks completely perfect and beautiful, I’ll definitely come back here. I’m so happy with my ring, thanks 😁.

GVS Jewelers is a wonderful, locally owned location in Belmont MA. Ive visited them twice for ring repair and a wow-factor cleaning of my wifes wedding bands.What separates GVS from other Big Jewelers in shopping malls is the owner Vladimir. First of all he cares, secondly is knowledgeable far beyond my expectations, and finally hes makes you feel like a friend the second you go into the location and the time you leave. I will do all of my jewelry shopping at GVS, it truly is a comforting establishment that will inevitably become your friend.Fred B

Just walking in, I felt welcomed. The costumer service is great! A few months ago I was shopping for an engagement ring. Luckily, I chose to go to GVS jewelers. There are so many beautiful rings they have and so many to choose from at such an affordable price! There are always great deals there. I had to go to the store a few times to pick one. Thank god I did, I get compliments all the time about my ring. I love it.

I wanted to propose to my (then) girlfriend with a custom made, one-of-a-kind, engagement ring. After shopping around a few of the highly recommended jewelers in the area, I came upon GVS Jewelers. I appreciated the personal attention, interest and time that Vladimir and his wife spent with we, and that they were genuinely interested to work on my design, making suggestions on how to both make it unique and beautiful. I am really happy with the finished ring, my fiancé loves it and shows it off any chance she gets. If youre thinking of proposing to your other half, I would definitely recommend a personal/custom made ring, and go with a reputable local jeweler, with an eye for detail, design and customer service, like GVS Jewelers.

I had an antique ring cleaned and restored and a stone reset in another ring. Both rings look beautiful. Thoroughly knowledgable with excellent craftsmanship - highly recommend.

I am so grateful that I brought my engagement ring to GVS. For the past 3 years the diamond would rotate in the head of the ring, and other jewelers had fixed it by tightening the head. Vladimir, however, fixed the root of the problem and showed me that one of the prongs was actually broken and I couldve lost the diamond altogether. He did a beautiful job installing a new head, and even upgraded it from white gold to platinum. The ring looks as beautiful as ever, and the diamond is the most secure it has ever been. I will definitely go back!

The staff is so nice and friendly. I am so happy that I came here to get my engagement ring. The jeweler is very knowledgeable and professional he helped me pick out the diamonds and designed the ring for me.Made my life so easy!!On top of that I didnt have to pay him! They financed my ring 12 month interest free! Wow I couldnt believe that a local jeweler can do so much. Thank you.

Just picked up my engagement ring from getting resized literally 10 minutes ago and I couldn’t be happier! I’ve been engaged for many years and my wedding is only 4 days away. My ring had taken some serious damage and the coloring did not match my wedding band. They resized and plated the ring to match and it looks better than it did when he bought it! Pickup day was one day later than originally quoted but they gave me plenty of notice so I didn’t mind at all. I know many people who have used this store and all rave about it. Stores like this just don’t exist anymore, such quality craftsmanship! 10/10 would recommend!

I bought her ring there in the summer of 2012. And I was more than happy to have bought it there at GVS. The service was impeccable.If you want to know more about the story, keep reading.I did my rounds from store to store, which included GVS, to get more educated on the diamonds. Once I felt I was beginning to know what I waslooking at in a diamond, I decided to give GVS a chance.About selecting the diamond and setting: The man who helped me obviously knew about diamond rings, knew what how to learn about me and my fiancee (through casual conversion and animated anecdotes), and finally knew exactly the diamond and setting I was looking for.About the service: As previously mentioned, the service was impeccable. The diamond I selected was set in another ring, which was not a setting that suited my tastes for my expecting girlfriend. The man helped me select a setting through a catalog to have delivered and set in time for my quickly approaching proposal weekend. He bent over backwards to make sure that I was happy with the ring and doing business.Something special: In case the fact isnt clear, I was proposing to my girl before we had ever gone to look at rings. So, I didnt know what size ring to get. The man knew the size of the ring to get my girl. I was amazed when I put the ring on her finger and how perfectly it fit. No refitting necessary. Truly outstanding. Its almost a magic trick.Over all: I am a very happy customer. I would recommend GVS as a place to purchase your engagement rings.A Note to the man: I forgot your name, and thats why I was refering to you in 3rd person. I apologize for that. I would otherwise mention you by name. Hope all is well.

I ordered a custom made engagement ring which included emeralds in the design. The owner called me up and said it was done but when I picked it up he swapped out the emeralds with plastic enamel instead and never mentioned anything about it. When I brought it up he said emeralds were too weak to be shaped for the settings. He later admitted they could be but would take a custom cut. He convinced me he would fix it with some other stone instead of emeralds but then he said that couldnt be done either. He has fought me tooth and nail every step of the way instead of trying to resolve the issue in a responsible fashion.I would not recommend this establishment for custom jewelry.

I am thrilled to have found a great jeweler! Vladimir is talented and creative and skilled. I did not want to bring my favorite treasures to chain-mall repair techs, I wanted a professional craftsman and thats what I found, thanks to all of the reviewers here. One item that I brought to him was a name-plate necklace that has sentimental value and I still wear all the time. I didnt like how it would always hang off-center, and Vladimir pointed out that it was because the name-plate was fixed on the chain at both ends instead of being on a slide. So, he soldered little loops on the back and rejoined the chain into a whole piece. The name always sits at center now and his welds were soo tiny and neat that the whole piece looks beautiful. I would not hesitate to bring anything to GVS and ohh I cant wait to do a little shopping in his store!

Review №56

My wife went here to get all three of our rings resized, and the owner was very helpful in determining the correct resizing for her. The quoted price of $330 for all three was a little high but not unreasonable (slight reduction of a 4.5mm band, slight increase on a 1.7mm band and 1.7mm band+pave halo). We decided to go with them for their expected fast and local service despite the cost.However, they never contacted us to pick up our rings - they said they would email, phone, or text when the order was done. After a week, we called them and they said the order had been ready for a while.Then, when my wife picked up our rings GVS suddenly claimed that the cost was $150 more than previously agreed ($480 total), even though the three items and $330 were clearly marked on the initial receipt! After agreeing to half of this increase in order to reclaim our rings without too much hassle, they then charged $450 to our card! My wife pointed out the discrepency, and they started writing a check for $45, but then changed this to $40.31 for some reason.I would never recommend anyone go here for service - extremely unprofessional when the time for payment arrives, and they might arbitrarily decide to charge more for agreed-upon service and perform the work without confirmation of the increased cost.
