The team always take the time to ensure purchases are perfect and help with picking that perfect gift for loved ones.
I have been shopping with Hamonds for 10 years and when I need a piece of jewelry it is always the first place I look. No high street store could possibly compete. Thank you

Custom wedding ring

When we wanted a design for a wedding ring that was slightly different from those in the catalogue it was easy simple and clear to communicate and get our requirements understood. The ring was made and was a very reasonable price, and when the finished product was tried on and was slightly too tight (due to our measurements, not the jewellers) they expedited an alteration to it to ensure we got it in time for the big day. COuldn't reccomend them more!

I purchased a chain last Chritmas with a Whitby Jet cross. I was delighted with this purchase. Then I subsequently bought a pair of earrings to match with the same cross design. They arrived in early November and will complete the set for my wife.

Excellent Service as usual.

We had seen the ring when were in the shop, and called a few days later to make the purchase. The lady remembered us visiting the store and quickly sorted the purchase which was received in a few days, and very nicely packaged.

Brilliant

Item arrived quickly, before I thought it would, and is (as usual) top quality. Also, as it was a sale item there was a discount making this extra VFM.

This company tried to scam me and possibly others - avoid at all costs

Ordered a Sternglas watch through W Hamond's online shop at a great price, but I should have known it was too good to be true.

The watch arrived with a faulty/damaged crown. Unfortunate but not the end of the world, as these things can happen. However, upon politely contacting W Hamond about this, they were adamant it was shipped undamaged and refused to refund or exchange it. I was shocked and mortified by this.

Thankfully I knew my rights as a consumer and managed to get a chargeback via my credit card, but if I hadn't purchased this way I would have been swindled.

Finally, I contacted the original manufacturer (Sterngals) and found out I was not the only customer to be treated this way, see below:

"I have to tell you that this retailer is no longer supplied by our distributor, as they had outstanding payments and the cooperation was consequently terminated. Sternglas therefore no longer has any business relationship with this seller, and unfortunately, you are not the only one who has had this kind of experience. We are relieved that, moving forward, this can no longer happen with any purchase of a Sternglas watch."

Edit: I am astonished by the response below. It doesn't matter if the fault was present on sending or if it was damaged in transit. If the item arrived faulty (which it did) the consumer is entitled to a refund or a replacement as per the consumer rights act. This is literally in your own terms and conditions if you cared to read them. But you repeated refused to do either, insisting I go down a repair route. And your terms also say W Hamond is responsible for paying return postage for faulty goods, which you did eventually do after the chargeback as you provided me a return label which I used! And regardless of any of this, my credit card provider deemed your "proof" of its condition insufficient, hence the chargeback being processed. I also see you flagged this review as 'harmful or illegal content' which is clearly an attempt to silence legitimate critisism and is an abuse of Trustpilot's systems.

Hello Luke, this watch was shipped to you undamaged and our dispatch photos were sent to you to prove this. If it was received damaged we apologise for any inconvenience and if did not happen in your possession must have happened in transit. As we did not send faulty goods it is per your cost to return to us, which you did after raising a chargeback.
