Great service
Friendly staff and great service!! Did a great job of fixing my earrings for a fantastic price.
Great service
Really pleased with this local independent jewellers. The last jewellers I used to go to stopped doing repairs etc so I’m glad I found this local company. I’ve been in a few times now for a ring re-sizing, jewellery repair advice and replacement watch batteries. The staff are always very helpful. I’m pleased with the repair to my ring and prices charged seem to be reasonable.
First class service
Visited the shop in Worthing for a repair, they advised that they currently had a backlog but Brenton offered to carry out a temporary fix. Called back 15 minutes later, all done, could not have asked for more. First class service. Highly recommended.
I have a Storm watch
I have a Storm watch, which needed a repair to the link, which had broke. I went to Timpson’s and asked if they could fix it, but they said I would need a brand new strap. I left and thought I would try GA and I was served by Brenton Rogers the Manager. He was friendly and engaged and he fixed the metal strap in no time. When I asked how much, he said it was free of charge! I will definitely return when I need a repair. Fantastic, friendly service and whilst waiting, I looked at the fantastic range of jewellery and watches. Some amazing pieces for a special gift. Thank you for your great help and customer service!
Fantastic service
We took a diamond ring into the Worthing shop to be cleaned and have the mount checked. We were served by a very friendly young fella, who was polite and very helpful. We got a call about 45 minutes later to say that it was ready and when we went back the ring was gleaming like new. Absolutely fantastic service. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you to Olly at GA
Thank you to Olly at GA. Took in an old watch of my father’s that hadn’t worked for years. His knowledge and customer service was excellent. Highly recommended.
fantastic customer service
I needed a link put in my watch. Helped by Maggie, assistant manager. They had trouble getting the links apart but persevered and managed to do it. It took longer than it should have and more difficult but at no point was I made to feel a nuisance. The staff were happy to help and take their time. Very polite and nothing was too much trouble. On top of that it only cost £5! Much cheaper than the jewellers in Worthing. Definitely recommend and will use again. Thank you
My rings
Very polite, friendly and personal service. Will be having my engagement ring enlarged. As a gesture, the Manager offered to enlarge my wedding ring, free of charge. Excellent service. Thank you
Really nice guys and great service
Really nice guys and great service, had some great stock in and even gave and fitted a brand new watch battery in my watch for free! Thank you so much Olly and team! Really made my day :)

Tissot watch
Took my wife's Tissot watch to Ollie and the team. That has been unable to be mended by other watch repairers in the area. He sorted it for me very quickly. Wife loves that she can wear it again as has sentimental value. I now go know where else for my watch repairs. Totally recommended.
