Great experience! Staff was super friendly and took care of sizing my watch to perfection. Christopher always has a smile and does great work and Rachael is attentive to detail and super friendly. Will be using for all my jewelry needs.

My really enjoy going to Christophers to get my batteries replace in my watches. They have great customer service and their prices are reasonable. My watch battery was replaced in under 6 minutes. Best place in Rockford.

I brought in a watch that may not have been the most expensive or nicest watch, but it has high sentimental value to me. The staff at Christopher’s were incredibly friendly and attentive. They knew the importance of the watch and the sentimental value with it and took the utmost care of it. I’ll never go to another place for jewelry or watch repair again.

I’ve got a princess cut diamond ring and the stone fell out. Took it to Christopher and he explained to me what he would have to do to replace the stone which meant adding to the ring itself due to the poorly made design(which was purchased at a big chain jewelry store.) any and all future jewelry purchases will be made at JEWLERY BY CHRISTOPHER! Got my ring back today and I must say Christopher is AMAZING at what he does. I was worried that the prongs being added to it would be very visit and take away from the stone.... BOY WAS I WRONG!! My ring is even more beautiful then the day I got it. Thank you so much for the amazing work that you do. First pic is before the stone fell out and second is after Christopher worked his magic💜

I went in for a watch repair today and the customer service experience from Rachel was outstanding !! I highly recommend for any repairs or service. They have a beautiful selection of engagement rings as well.

Picks up phone and hangs up on potential customers... real wonderful customer service there.. what a joke

Great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. Always get my watch batteries swapped out here. Top tier!!

Great customer service. I needed a watch battery and they replaced it free of charge. I didn’t even buy my watch there. I was in and out within 5 minutes. Thank you

The Ultimate Lifetime Memory by ChristopherMy Dad and Mom passed away within 3 months of each other. My Dad was devoted to the Poor Clare Nuns ( St. Claire ). When he passed, I purchased 4 St. Claire lead metals from the Poor Clare Nuns for me and my 3 sisters to be carried all the time in his memory. After my Mom passed, we found that she had melted down some of her jewelry into nuggets.I had Christopher fix a few jewelry items for me, including my wifes wedding rings. I was very satisfied with the work that was done.So I asked him if he could melt some of my Moms nuggets and place a ring around the St. Claire lead metal to put on chains. He told me that was impossible because the lead metal would melt. However, he suggested making a mold of the lead metal and pouring my Moms melted gold into it. I agreed.I sent my sisters their metals as a surprise. They were speechless. What a wonderful memento, it is, to have part of our Dads and Moms life together.Christopher, I cant thank you enough for your suggestion and masterpiece. They are beautiful!!!!

Amazing service by an amazing staff! Thanks so much for taking care of Lucy’s two watches! Greatly appreciated!!

Christopher hand-made my finances wedding ring. After month of searching, we could never find the perfect mens band for him. We tried other places and they refused to custom make the ring for us. When we went to Christopher and he drew up our idea right away, and completely customized our ring. It turned out BEAUTIFUL and it was worth every dollar spent. The customer service was impeccable and he is always so open and easy to work with! HIGHLY RECCOMEND HIM

Awesome experience! Would recommend Christopher’s to anyone!

This place rocks! Rachel replaced my Coach and Michael Kora watch batteries for free. Ive been going to this place for years and will continue!

Christophers new location is absolutely gorgeous. As always service was outstanding. Went in to have my daughters ring with a bent shank repaired and was ready to leave within 5 minutes with perfectly shined good as new ring.

Christopher was absolutely amazing to work with and hand crafted a STUNNING one of a kind wedding set for me.

Amazing customer service. I came into the store while they were working when it was closed. Christopher was so nice to inquire what I needed. The stone fell out of my mothers engagement ring and she was anxious get it repaired. He looked at it and told me to come back in 1 hour. Upon my return, the ring was repaired and sparkled. I am so impressed with Christopher and his customer service. I highly recommend shopping here and coming in for any jewelry repair.

I am very pleased and impressed with Christopher’s! My husband worked with Christopher several years ago to design my engagement ring and the fine detail is absolutely exquisite. I needed my ring resized and they did that free of charge. When a stone fell out, they replaced free of charge and very speedily. When needed, we will return to Christopher’s in the future.

The service by Rachael was so awesome today! Ill be back for more products!

Awesome service!! Wonderful people to work with!!

I was very pleased with Christophers creativity. I had a rough idea in my mind, he sketched it out, and I approved it. Voila` ! It came out EVEN BETTER than I imagined! Plus, he completed it sooner than he promised. I would definitely recommend his expertise.

I took in jewelry to be repaired (not from Christophers). He was very helpful and explained everything that I had questions about. He is very knowledgeable about his trade. I was very happy to know that my jewelry does not leave his store and that Christopher himself will be repairing my precious jewelry. His prices were very reasonable and I will definitely be going back.

Have made multiple purchases here and I love the quality and customer service. Christopher is a stand up guy and so are all of his staff. Highly recommend.

We had a great experience here. They had great design ideas, used my input and we came up with a great ring for my wife. Highly recommend.

Ive always had a gteat and efficient visit at Christophers, really no need to go elsewhere.

My grandmother left me an anniversary ring and it was beautiful, yet not my style. We took it to Christopher and he used the same gold and diamonds to transform it into a uniquely stunning ring! He has such talent! I will never go anywhere else! Thank you!

Always great to deal with them. Honest and helpful on every visit I make. Great jeweler.

My husband and I did not have a lot of money when we got married so we did not have much to spend on wedding rings. We wanted to get me a new ring that was unique. We went to Christoper with a picture and I wanted to keep the sapphire from my original ring. When I picked up the ring I was overwhelmed with how beautiful it was. He exceeded my expectations and I would recommend everyone to use him for their jewelry.

Second piece I have had repaired by Christopher. First my engagement ring several years ago, and just last week, my wedding ring wrap.Since my husband passed away 8 years ago, these 2 pieces are very special to me, but I felt very comfortable leaving them at Christophers. Thanks again

My husband had an idea of a design for my wedding ring and took it to Christopher. Christopher put a lot of thought into it and came up with a beautiful amazing ring that I’d never take off my finger. Well years later I developed a horrible allergy to gold. I was so sad when my doctor told me I couldn’t wear my ring anymore. I took my ring to Christopher after about a year of not wearing it, and he too was sad I couldn’t wear it. He took my ring and made it hypoallergenic for me by doing a dipping process (I think)! It looks exactly the same as it did the day my husband gave it to me and I can wear it without a reaction! Christopher is brilliant when it comes to jewelry design, and he’s also kind and honest! I would highly recommend!

The necklace Christopher made my wife for our anniversary was more than i imagined. His craftsmanship and creativity are amazing. I highly recommend that if you are looking for a one of a kind piece to go see him!!

There are NO WORDS, to describe the beautiful ring that Christopher made for me. It is beyond my expectations, it’s a ring of deep meaning and healing for me. Thank you Christopher, for knowing what the meaning was, and for creating a masterpiece for me.

AwesomeSuch a nice place

My wedding ring and anniversary bands were worn to paper thin after 32 years. I took them to Christophers for repair. After meeting with Christopher it was very clear that the rings needed to be remade. I was extremely nervous about losing the design of my rings that I truly loved. All I can say is that I am beyond thrilled! Christopher was very understanding and sensitive to my feelings of maintaining the design integrity and adding some embellishments to modernize my rings. Thank you Christopher for capturing every detail of my original rings and your amazing vision on the embellishments! This was a very tough decision for me, yet you were confident and reassured me that I would be 100% happy with the end result. I am beyond satisfied, I cant believe how beautiful and stunning the rings are. I love showing them to my family and friends! I am recommending you to everyone! Your talent and vision are absolutely amazing!!!

Christopher is an artist and it shows in his innovative designs. He custom made an incredible ring for me using old stones & has sold me a few other pieces over the years. The quality of the work, professionalism, honesty and integrity of Christopher and his staff are what will keep me as a customer for life!

Christopher transformed my ring into something more elegant, modern and sophisticated. He has a great eye for detail and was very responsive to my questions. I would highly recommend him!

Great service both times I had my chain repaired. Very knowledgeable, high quality work.

The Greatest Jeweler in Illinois. I walked into Christophers Store and was greeted by Christopher himself. The first words out of his mouth were, I am a jeweler, not a salesman. I brought Christopher my grandmothers engagement ring, to have him melt it down to be incorporated into my custom designed engagement ring. I felt that I could trust this man with a piece of my family history, knowing he was going to take care of it. He designed an engagement ring but he really created a work of art. The day I picked up my ring I was (and still am) speechless of his attention to detail. No tricks, no games, just an artist doing what he loves to do. If you havent gone in to look at his jewelry, do yourself the favor of being blown away by THE Greatest Jeweler in Illinois. Christopher should be nationally recognized for his incredible gift of designing the finest pieces of jewelry in this part of the US. His no pressure atmosphere was so welcoming. Christopher made a custom engagement ring... within my budget, not spending a penny more. DO NOT go to any other jeweler than Christophers. I will be a customer for life, guaranteed.

Very friendly people, beautiful new store, reasonable prices.

Fantastic place and people. Two rings redesigned and turned out beautiful. All repairs done in house. Cant say enough good. Would highly recommend.!!!

Walked in and was greeted by brad he completely understood exactly what i was trying too accomplish with my ring. Not only did he tell me exactly how he would do it he had great suggestions and ideas. highly recommend him for any of your jewelry needs. Thank you brad it turned out great

Christopher created a custom-made engagement ring and wedding band based off of pictures of rings my husband & I showed him. Not only was the final product more beautiful than the inspiration pictures, but also more structurally secure. It is wonderful knowing that these rings are quality-made to last a lifetime. Christopher was very professional, patient, and really listened to us to create exactly what we envisioned. Fantastic experience!

Have used Christopher before for jewelry repair and been extremely satisfied. My wedding ring had a mishap with the garbage disposal! When I met with him he realized how important it was to me to keep my original look, for sentimental reasons. Christopher reworked my wedding set and it looks amazing! He was able to keep my original look and add to it. It was a major overhaul. I cant thank him enough for his attention to detail and expertise. I am over the moon with his results. Thank you so much!!! I would highly recommend him.

Went to Christopher’s after another local competitor gave me an estimate on repair of my wedding ring and Christopher beat their price and had very quick turnaround. His service and attitude was exceptional. I was completely satisfied and will use him in the future.

Christopher is the best jeweler I have ever had the opportunity to work with. He is honest, patient, skilled, open to input, and extremely personable..I worked with him to design an engagement/wedding ring combo that was exactly as I envisioned it. He offered advice and sketched out precisely what I wanted, then made it even more exquisitely than I thought possible.After seeing her ring, my fiance at the time spoke with Christopher and he designed what can only be described as my crown. I almost wept when I saw my ring as I had never seen anything that fabulous; and it was mine.I later had Christopher make my wife a pair of earrings for her wedding gift and he found a fantastic deal on a pair of princess cut diamonds that he set perfectly to match her ring setting, making for quite a sparkly bride.His prices are very reasonable and I always get much more than I pay for. In an industry where its hard to not be exploited as a customer, Christopher assures me that not only am I getting high quality merchandise, but at a much less inflated price than I had expected.Both my mother and new mother-in-law were so impressed by his skill that they have become fiercely loyal to Christopher, having him design and remake their wedding rings and many other pieces.During our interactions, Christopher and I have become friendly and I consider him among my closest associates and recommend him to everyone.In the last few years, he has begun selling flowers and I have gladly purchased many arrangements from him. His florist, Paula is fantastic at making unique and creative designs that never cease to amaze the recipients.I would consider going nowhere else for any jewelry or floral purchases and strongly urge anyone interested in being amazed to stop in and get more for their money than anywhere else.

Chris possesses a talent that cannot be described with a 5 star review. He successfully took a few ideas and designed a true masterpiece that will be a base for a lifetime of memories. For any special milestone or celebration, Chris ensures the jewelry piece of the memory will be the easiest aspect of the moment, but it will most definitely be the highlight of the event.

I had my wedding ring upgraded and the job Christopher did was absolutely beautiful; he has a wonderful eye for detail and treats his customers extremely well. I highly recommend.

I just recently proposed to my fiancee, and I had Christopher make my ring. I went in three times with three different designs, and Christopher sat with me, and discussed each design in detail, and drew them out so I could get a picture of how it would look. He also made sure he stayed within my budget for each design.My last design was extremely intricate and detailed, and Christopher stayed within my budget. My ring came out more perfect than I had even imagined! Christopher treated me like a person, and not just another sale. He was very considerate with what I wanted my ring to be, and he exceeded every expectation I had!Thank you so much Christopher! This is the most beautiful piece of jewelry Ive ever seen!!!

Best jeweler in town! Stopped in for jewelry repairs and prices were more than fair! The repairs were done within a few days they came back looking brand new! I will definitely be back!

I asked Christopher to design a cremation ring to hold my beloved dogs ashes. Her name was Zowie and he designed the most beautiful ring I have ever seen incorporating the “Z” from her name. It has brought me so much comfort to have this beautiful ring to honor her memory as he made it so I can view her ashes. I urge anyone that has lost a loved one to go see Christopher and have him design something that you can wear forever. I will be forever grateful for this beautiful ring.

I went to Jewelry by Christopher to inquire about altering a pair of earrings of great sentimental value. I was greeted by Rachel, to whom I explained the problem. She introduced me to Brad who she said could help. After carefully considering the situation, he simply reduced the post circumferences and handed them back. Simple! I thought it would be a much more involved process. Then the most amazing part is there was not a charge. As a small business owner I am most appreciative of this type of service. What a gem of a store you are in Rockford, ha! Just as an aside, I was referred to Christophers by my mother who had a ring redesigned and was thrilled with the result. Thank you!

Ive been going to Christophers for the past 4 years. Custom diamond earrings for my daughters 1 year birthday. Custom designed pendants, pearl and diamond. Most importantly I recently brought in my great grandmothers diamond and Christopher designed the perfect engagement ring using the stone. I was speechless, and my fiance was speechless. Beautiful work, beautiful detail and a genuinely nice professional. Very highly recommend Christophers fine jewelry for anything from a simple diamond earring to a gorgeous engagement ring.

Christopher and his knowledgable staff took our ideas for a wedding set and band and created the most beautiful rings.Their friendly service and sparkling store will bring us back again and again.We wholeheartedly recommend Christopher for your fine jewelry dreams.

I would like to say everyday i sit and wait to see what Christopher Cole is gonna create that day and i have to say i have never seen a piece of his work that is not stunning. So i recommend anyone to come buy a stunning piece of Cole from Mr Christopher Cole

Absolutely ecstatic with the ring Christopher designed for me! I had a vision in mind and he made it become a reality! I will never ever go to another Jeweler. He is beyond phenomenal!

Just moved to Rockford from Chicago, I needed to get my ring sized down after losing weight, as well as get a chain of mine cleaned. His prices were more than fair, and after saying itd be ready sometime next week, Chris actually sent me a text message the very next morning letting me know it was all done! Less than 24 hours! I couldnt have asked for more, and am thoroughly pleased and impressed with the service I received at Jewelry by Christopher.

I had an heirloom diamond set in my wedding ring that was loose, brought it in and it was fixed within the day. Also Christopher took the time to speak to me personally and fix other issues that the chain jeweler does not address. Also having my ring back in one day, other than two weeks showed me that I was a valued costumer and my jewelry is treated with the upmost care and knowledge. I was so impressed with the service and will continue to work with Christophers for my jewelry needs.

Christopher and rest of the staff were amazing, I will definitely come back. Best jeweler in Rockford, I totally recommend anyone to come here.

Love Christopher and his talent! Stopped in to have my ring remade into something new for myself and Im excited to see this design come to life!

Christopher remade my wedding ring, which I love! I had broken a channel and needed it repaired quickly for an upcoming event. He repaired it and also did repair to a ring that was my mothers in a day!I have always had a great experience with Christopher and his staff.Thank you!!

Amazing. Rockford is fortunate to have an artist of this caliber located here. Christopher gets the best diamonds, creates the best designs and makes the best, most robust jewelry available anywhere. Dont waste your time with mall jewelers; Christopher is on a completely different level. For the same price you will get MUCH higher quality and far better, one-of-a-kind designs. Thank you!

Christophers has excellent service and fine jewelry that is very unique.Anyone looking to make a jewelry purchase should consider Christophers!He can design a piece that is unique to any individual for any occasion.Chris is a MASTER JEWELER !!! Would not go anywhere else!!!Thanks Chris for treating me like a person instead of treated me like anyother customer.

Christopher was awesome! When he sits down with you to design a ring he really listens to what you say and works on making the best ring for you. I know that Christopher will do an excellent job in creating the ring.

Beautiful place.

I just picked up my ring. WOW it is beautiful!! I love it. I had it custom made out of a few rings that meant alot to me. I couldnt be happier. Thank you Thank you 💍💍💍💍

Christopher made my wedding ring to match my engagement ring that was purchased overseas. Absolutely gorgeous!! I have and will recommend Christophers any time someone is looking for a good jeweler!

Christopher is amazing!! He took my grandmothers vintage ring and re-made/re-sized it to fit me and we couldnt be happier with how it turned out! I had been to several jewelers that said there was nothing that could be done with it but he exceeded my expectations. He was able to preserve more of the original ring than I thought was possible. He took the time to listen to what I wanted and what was important to us and took into consideration the sentimental value of the ring as well. I would highly recommend Christopher to anyone!

I recently had 2 custom rings designed. Christopher was helpful in suggesting details and designing my ideas and making it a reality. He exceeded my expectations. I will most definitely use him in the future!

My fiancé and I went to see Christopher to design a custom engagement ring. We did not want a traditional diamond ring and he did a wonderful job explaining the different gemstone options we had and helped us ultimately decide on a moissanite. I showed him a few photos of different styles of rings I liked, and he drew a sketch of a design that combined the aspects I loved of different rings into one perfect ring. Christopher was very professional and patient with us as we made our decisions. An overall wonderful experience. He fit all of our requirements of being a talented designer, experienced craftsman, and pleasant to work with.

We had a wonderful experience with Christopher. When we came to the store for the first time, he sat down with us and sketched out some designs on the spot. Ultimately we came up with a custom design based on his ideas, and the finished piece turned out flawless. Christopher executed the design perfectly and I am in loved with the finished piece! Working with Christopher to get a one-of-a-kind piece has been worth every penny (and, might I add, that its not much pricier than purchasing a pre-made ring from a big, chain jeweler). I plan to bring all of my future jewelry​ needs directly to Christopher! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Christopher is phenomenal. I told him my budget and some ideas i had and he designed a beautiful ring with me and within my budget! The ring is more than perfect. Thank you!!

QUALITY-HIGH END JEWELRY AND PRECISION REPAIR WORK TOO!! THIS IS THE JEWELER TO GO TO IN THIS TOWN!! HE IS THE BEST!!! I HAVE QUITE A FEW ANTIQUE PLATINUM PIECES THAT NEEDED ATTENTION. HE REPAIRED MY 1947 TIFFANY AND CO DIAMOND AND RUBY 18K ROSE GOLD FLIP TOP BRACELET WATCH PERFECTLY AND ACCURAETLY

I went to Christopher on recommendation of a friend as a clueless first time ring buyer. I knew a couple features that I wanted in the ring, otherwise I was relying on his artistic eye to be able to fashion up a ring to my standards.I went to Christophers Fine Jewelry with the expectation of getting a price, and I walked out with a ring on order. Christopher drew the ring concept up in about 10 minutes and it was so stunning, I ordered it that day without shopping around. There is no need to shop around when youre having Christopher make you a ring!Christopher was very laid back, never pressured me, supported my budget, and blew my expectations out of the water.I WILL be a return customer as long as I live in the area.

If, for any reason, you are in need of a jeweler, dont waste your time going from store to store. See Jewelry by Christopher first. You will be amazed. His reviews speak volumes.

I took some old jewelry in from my dad that was old worn they talked with me and said they could rebuild it to orginal like new condition, and they did it, made dad happy me too very cost effective just to see dad smile again them guys are good 😁

Christopher--A Man of IntegrityI recently inherited a diamond pendant necklace and diamond earrings. The earrings were appraised in 2008 for $1500. I wanted to upgrade the earrings and thought if I traded in the earrings I could use that money to purchase a larger diamond and combine it with the diamond in the pendant and I could have upgraded earrings.I took these items to a local jeweler who told me my diamond earrings were of very poor quality and that he would not be able to give me very much for them. This made me uncomfortable as I knew that to be untrue. He then told me that for $3800 he would sell me a new 0.70 ctw diamond that would match the diamond in my pendant and make my new earrings.I went to Christopher for a second opinion. He put each of my diamond earrings under a microscope which was reflected onto his computer screen to show me that my diamonds were actually of very nice quality now appraising for $4000! He then took the time to place a diamond of much lesser quality under his microscope so I could actually see the difference between these diamonds. Christopher educated me on the fact that you never get even close to full value when you trade in jewelry. He asked If I had thought of using the diamonds from my earrings to create a new custom piece of jewelry. I thought that was a great idea! He suggested purchasing a new diamond of same size and quality as my pendant to create my new earrings. Christopher charged me $2100, which was $1700 less than the other local jeweler, and I also got to see my new diamond under magnification on the computer screen.I was impressed by both the time and patience Christopher gave me. It is so refreshing in this day and age to have the opportunity to do business with such a fine, sincere and trustworthy young man as Christopher whom has so much integrity! Looking forward to bringing my original diamond studs in to have Christopher create something stunning for me. Thank you Christopher for saving me a bunch of money!! Kathy 2017

We brought in a single 1 ct. stone along with a band setting without the prongs. Christopher was attentive to our concerns and requests and set the stone beautifully. We would highly recommend him.

Awesome the Team There really listens to what it is you desire Christopher if it had ten star rating you certainly do deserve it

Completely Satisfied after having 3 rings designed and built by Christopher. Would not go anywhere else to have anything made. He is an artist and excellent craftsman.

Had watch links taken out and new battery put in. Friendly owner and staff highly recommend this place

VERY GOOD SERVICE, AND FRIENDLY STAFFS.

I had a very difficult engagement ring to find a band that would work. After going to 6 different stores from Madison WI to around town, i ventured into Jewlery by Christophers. In a time where people online shop or when they do go into stores their shopping experience results in feeling like a number, an annoyance or invisible which is exactly how I has felt at previous stores...the experience I have had working with Christopher and his entire talented team has blown me away. The knowledegable, honest, respectful of our budget, creative and consultative approach that I experienced will keep my future husband and I coming back for years to come! Thank you Christopher for my beautiful wedding ring!!

Nothing but the best!!!

When i went to Christophers to have a mans ring made from my deceased mothers jewelry we sit down i told him my ideas and he added his,well there right he is a master jeweler and i have the coolist ring every handmade thanks christopher my mom would love you for this and ill cherish it forever thanks for keeping her spirit alive!

He is a joke he lies to you about your rings

Great Experience !

Best in town

Awesome!! Fine jewelry and an awesome staff!!!
