Excellent Service

Excellent Service, within a few minutes of completing my order I was contacted and told exactly when I would receive my watch. Nice little surprise when I opened the box to find some very nice mint chocolates. Very happy with my purchase too. Highly recommend Banks Lyon

Choosing a watch for a special birthday

The experience of choosing a gift for my birthday was exceptional. Samantha Ireland took her time to understand what I was interested in, what was important to me and was respectful of our budget. She showed me a wide range of watches from different designers to focus on my likes and dislikes. She explained the various features, strap and face options, guarantees and more. Sam was knowledgeable, engaging and listened to me and was patient. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Banks Lyons is a very special space to make a special purchase and I feel fortunate that it is our local jewellers. All the staff are friendly and take a genuine interest in your purchases.

Fantastic Service

I decided to buy an Omega Seamaster 300 and as there are no Omega retailers in my Town I searched the internet, after numerous phone calls to Omega retailers I came across Banks Lyon Jewellers based in Lancaster.
The Lady I dealt with is called Aziza and she was fantastic, knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
I paid for the watch over the phone (I received a payment link) on the Saturday and the watch was with me in the beautiful box, all paperwork and the worldwide guarantee the following Tuesday.
Thanks again Aziza 10 out of 10 for your customer support.

Thankyou Aziza

After years of procrastination over buying a new watch, I finally made to the decision to buy my Cartier Santos with Banks Lyon because of Aziza. She went above and beyond to ensure I had different real life pictures of the watch and answered every question I had within an hour day or night. A true professional.

A trusted retailer, with great service

Banks Lyon make you feel special but relaxed, and you know everything they sell is the best quality, you feel respected and reassured, you know you won't be disappointed with your purchase.
I was served by Samantha, it felt like a relaxed chat, no pressure, no judgement, she took the time to understand what I wanted, and presented the options in an informed manor, without expectation. I may not have bought there and then if it hadn't have been for her relaxed and supportive demeanor.
