Thank you Hamilton and Inches for…
Thank you Hamilton and Inches for pulling off mission impossible . My wife loves the eternity ring. It is beautiful.
I had a really nice experience at…
I had a really nice experience at Hamilton & Inches with Jonathan. He took the time to genuinely listen and understand the story behind the gift I’m hoping to get for my husband, which I really appreciated.
He’s very knowledgeable about watches and gave me a personable tour of what Hamilton & Inches offers. When he found out we’d just moved to Edinburgh, he was also incredibly kind in sharing personal tips on settling in, along with some of his favourite restaurant recommendations. Very warmth and kind Scottish as always. 😊
I’m really looking forward to hearing good news one day and being able to surprise my husband with something meaningful to mark this special milestone during our time here. Thank you Jonathan for such a warm experience.
Exceptional Service
Fantastic customer service from Ruth, who was extremely knowledgeable and friendly.
We've been purchasing beautiful items…
We've been purchasing beautiful items from Hamilton&Inches, Edinburgh, for some years now, a kind of family tradition.
Jonathan always served and helped us over the years extremely kind, polite and professionally.
This year, he even worked miracles - and so did the workshop staff - because one of the needed parts was actually not available singularly anymore. Somehow, they'd found it anyway and in the end, were able to create another gorgious item. Thanks to them all! We highly recommend this exceptional jeweller.
Really knowledgeable
Really knowledgeable, professional service from start to finish. Will use again
Exceptional Service and Experience
My wife and I visited Hamilton and Inches late afternoon one Saturday without an appointment where I met Ruth whom I initially found to be extremely polite and friendly given the store was near closing.
Ruth took us through to the rear of the store and offered my wife and I a beverage. It was at this juncture Ruth’s professionalism and knowledge surrounding the Rolex brand was clearly evident. She listened intently and showed great understanding and
subsequently showed us suitable timepieces for my collection. Ruth went far and beyond any service I would expect as we were passed the stores closing time and it was of no concern to Ruth whatsoever.
I had a remarkable experience at Hamilton and Inches, Edinburgh, thanks to the exceptional service provided by Ruth and I hope other employees are of the same ilk.
Outstanding Service from Start to Finish
I was very impressed with the service I received at Hamilton & Inches. Booking an appointment was quick and easy and I walked in with an idea of what I wanted and a handful of questions.
Ruth, who assisted me, demonstrated exceptional patience, clear expertise, and a true passion for the timepieces on display.
The welcoming hospitality (bubbles/coffee/tea of your choice), calm and relaxed environment, attention to detail and professionalism ensured a seamless and reassuring experience.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hamilton & Inches to anyone seeking friendly, outstanding service.
Lovely Experience
The staff are very knowledgeable about the beautiful items for sale. Jonathan, Carrick and Giacomo were all very helpful and accommodating, answering our many questions and enquiries. The boutique is beautiful and the company is very welcoming to those that just wish to browse. A visit is highly recommended.
World Class - Thanks Again Giacomo!
My partner and I had attended to discuss fixing a clasp on a necklace which is incredibly important to her.
From the beginning of our visit, the experience felt very relaxing, yet with a subtle undertone of professionalism.
Although we did not have an appointment, our consultant Giacomo, went far and beyond what one would expect for a random visit.
We not only got great advice at a reasonable price, solving our issue - we also got an outstanding personal touch - discussing common interests, timepieces I had been interested in purchasing for some time, and an absolute masterclass overview of the Rolex market.
My partner (whose father is a collector and so has been dragged into boutiques from a young age, all over the world - Swiss, French, you name it), said that she had never felt as positive leaving a showroom before.
A genuine world class showroom, staff and experience - incredibly proud to have this on my doorstep in Edinburgh!
Fantastic Staff & Purchase Experience
An extremely pleasant and memorable purchase, thanks to Giacomo. Kept me updated from start to finish. What an exceptional boutique setting where modern meets vintage. Definitely would recommend a visit and explore the range of luxury goods on display. No pressure sales just friendly advice and assistance. Thank you and hope to visit soon for my next luxury purchase 😊
Excellent friendly service!
Exceptional Edinburgh Jeweller
Exceptional Edinburgh Jeweller. I met Jonathan for the first time today by prior appointment where I was making a note of significant interest in what will be my first Rolex timepiece. A very knowledgeable gent with a warm charm backed by welcoming colleagues. Fingers crossed I am lucky enough to take ownership of a watch in time for my 40th birthday.
Welcoming and very knowledgeable staff
Welcoming and very knowledgeable staff. A very satisfying experience
Visited the store for the first time…
Visited the store for the first time today and I found the knowledge and service of Lesley excellent. Very pleasant experience registering for a specific watch I am after a five star customer service rating from me.
Great first Experience
On my recent visit to the Hamilton & Inches I was served by Giacomo.
I would like to say he had an amazing knowledge of the watch I wanted & helped me further to register my interest for the specific one. I would also like to mention the gentleman who opened the door for me he was v.courteous & smiley.
Thanks to the team of Hamilton & Inches, hope to be back soon.
Very helpful staff in a relaxed atmosphere
I recently made a purchase from Hamilton & Inches on George St and had a ring serviced and cleaned at the same time. The shop has a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere with a wide selection of high-quality jewellery and watches. Ruth and Lesley helped me; they were both very helpful and friendly. If you're looking for a special purchase, I recommend visiting.
Great store, fantastic staff
Visited this shop today to register our interest in a couple of time pieces and Giacomo was great start to finish. Very knowledgeable in this field and helpful. I look forward to visiting again when time comes to pick up a new watch.
Rebecca is fantastic
Rebecca is fantastic, lovely to deal with, very knowledgeable about ROLEX, amazing customer service. Rebecca came through for my daughters 21st, fingers crossed Rebecca can source another watch for us. Thanks for everything, it’s appreciated.
Rolex - First Time Buyer
I was in Edinburgh for a work event, strolling through the city for the first time I came across this authorised dealer, I had a glance at the timepieces on display and not knowing what to expect I walked into the store. I was greeted by a kind fellow at the door who welcomed me in and introduced me to Aaron. Aaron generously talked me through the Rolex watches, not knowing what I initially was looking for he sat me down and discussed the unique capabilities of each timepiece and helped me decide the watch best suited to me. I have to say, it was a great experience and I look forward to purchasing the watch and meeting Aaron again.
Regards,
Hamza
Update - Unfortunately I have had to lower the score only because I have been told by the manager Crystal that I will not be able to purchase my first watch as they prioritise loyal customers… She also made a strange remark and said if I buy a watch elsewhere to return to Hamilton & Inches in the future.. needless to say I won’t be returning.
I still however stand by what I said regarding Aaron and my experience with him was great. It’s a shame his manager Crystal has tainted the entire experience for me.
Flawless service.
Upon entering the store we were welcomed by Ruth who took us through the process of registering interest with Rolex. She was very knowledgeable about the products and the aftercare service having recently made a visit the UK Rolex repair services. Ruth guided us through the application process and answered all of our questions and set realistic expectations of what we can expect now that our interest has been registered. The glass of bubbly was also very welcome!
I have no reservations recommending Hamilton and Inches. The service was impeccable.
