"Working
in the city and not having a huge amount of time I headed off
in the direction of Angus and Coote in Pitt street to purchase
a ring for my girlfriend. I have to agree with everything said
(re Keith's review) bar a pushy South African salesmen who wanted
to know all about me and my day which you don't need when in
a hurry. He effectively drove me out of the shop (although I
did return briefly when the coast was clear). Prouds won my
business (Corner of Pitt and King) as
A/ Leah, their sales girl
was brilliant and
B/ they had a sale on and
the right ring.
They also have a dungeon where they altered the ring size for
stuff all (about $20). I noticed they didn't charge the lady
before me as they couldn't service her watch properly on account
of its age. Finally, there doesn't appear to be any natural
sunlight for the guys down there so spare a thought if they
look less than ecstatic about their work - not sure I’d be too
happy working under those kind of conditions"
"I would
recommend Proud's jewellery repair service. I went in for a
watch strap repair to my Omega, expecting to be fleeced, but
instead, (as I still had the tiny parts that had come loose),
they [Proud's repairer] reassembled it while I waited and refused
to take any money for the job. Top quality customer service.
I'm determined to go back to them next time and pay! Matt

"We met Bill at his
studio in the Trust Building in King Street where he took
the time to get to understand exactly the design my wife had
in mind and even produced a sketch on the spot for us to look
at. He quoted us what I thought was a reasonable price and
my wife now wears a beautiful hand made diamond ring that
she will treasure forever" Roger
