Is this the 21st century counterpart to the time when pocket watch gave way to wrist watch? There are many today who eschew the wrist watch in favor of the so-called smart watch. Not at Jewels by Love! While honeymooning in St Martin, Jill Sidebottom and I had the good fortune to meet, enjoy, and learn the history and passions of horology 2017 from the shop owner, Love himself -- an unrivaled life experience! Thanks, Love, for the dinner reservations you arranged and champagne toast offered at Ocean 82 -- you are a special man! Special thanks also to Manick -- beware his self-effacing moniker of mere gem-setter for he is a fine time-piece purveyor extraordinaire; and, forget not Bhavesh, young apprentice technologically adept and notably proficient at distracting hubby while Manick surreptitiously bejewels wifey! Oh, did I mention, we left with a watch for Jill's daughter, Alyssa, Jill is but a caretaker.

Hi Love Thank you for the New year wishes. We have fond mementoes of visiting St Maarten in 2018 - and having a 3 hour captivating chat with you about watches and Pune. Arnav cherishes his Breguet that we got from you for his 16th birthday. With his 18th coming up in July we may need to look at another addition. It’s never just the buying - it’s the memories and feelings attached and the amazing people we meet that counts. We were so engrossed in listening to you we didn’t explore St Marten- looks like some day we will have to visit again. Please do visit us in Birmingham if you are visiting UK. Best wishes to you and your family. With kind regards Archana , Rupen Tanay , Arnav

Just back from our Christmas cruise and wanted to let people know how great this business is!! I had done a little research prior to leaving on our cruise and definitely want to check this place out, I was wanting a Patek timepiece. My wife and i had gotten off the ship a little early and was wandering around waiting for the store to open, i think we were the first ones in that morning, we started our journey just kinda looking around but then got to the Patek section and didn’t leave that area for 5 hours. Met with Love and started talking about my small collection of watches Omegas, Breitling, Rolex and some others, never once did he say anything bad about them just shared the differences, my wife sat there the whole time and listened and was actually interested, that’s never happened before!! There was never any pressure to purchase anything Love just wanted to share his passion and knowledge, which is endless. I did end up purchasing a Patek, but only after looking at 5 different models, Love didn’t want me to just settle to say i own a Patek he wanted me to wear it and be happy, which i am very much. I said it in the store and will say it again, Thank You!!
