I recently used Gilmore Family Jewelers to reset my wedding ring set. The first picture of what I LOVE and was asking for, the second is what I got and the third picture was my original ring. I’m very disappointed that this is what I received.Not only was the only thing I paid for just a gold band but the prongs that hold my diamond weren’t even gold and my bands weren’t changed. I clearly showed the picture during a consultation over what I was looking for. I wanted exactly the picture, especially with how my previous ring had a similar concept I figured it would be an easier process. This was a waste of money.I don’t recommend going to this place for resetting your ring.

Gary is absolutely amazing! He helped my fiancee create a custom engagement ring exactly how I wanted it. The amount of diamonds, the size of the details, etc. He then helped my fiancee pick out a diamond. We wanted a lab made diamond and he was able to get that for us too. He is charming to work with and does an impeccable job. My ring is so beautiful and I cannot be happier!

When David Gilmore had his shop in Ocean Beach...David Gilmore Goldsmiths I brought 30 plus old, old large pennies and some odd pieces of silver. He paid me for one Large penny he supposedly took to a coinsmith but he never returned the rest of my coins. I had 30 + coins in a little colorful striped coin purse. He "claimed " he lost it. David Stole them from me!! Tara Davis

My custom-made wedding ring needed to be refurbished.Although it wasn't a major repair by any means Gary made usfeel like VIP customers. Very friendly and professional. Did a great job inmaking the ring look like it was new. Very fair pricing.Very pleased with the experience and would use this business again for purchase or repair.Nice location (by appointment only) at Liberty Station.Notorious MD approved!

The Gilmore family is absolutely incredible at what they do. Years ago, my fiancé gifted me a gorgeous opal ring that Alex helped him design. I wear it every single day. Fast forward a few years and my fiancé returns for an engagement ring for me! It’s insanely beautiful and I get complimented on it ALL the time. Fast forward another year- My fiancé and I returned for our wedding bands! Gary kindly walked us through the process of creating the most GORGEOUS custom wedding band. He was beyond patient as I made revisions along the way and was always so understanding as we worked together to achieve my perfect ring! I am blown away by the outcome and so grateful for Gary! He was not only a pleasure to do business with, but he’s just a really cool guy in general, and very easy to talk to. I’m so excited to wear this ring every day and I will always refer everyone to this family.

Gary is an absolutely amazing jeweler/craftsman... and one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet (as is the whole Gilmore family)! I brought in a ring of my grandmother's (who passed away over 20 years ago) to have polished, resized, and the turquoise stone replaced. The right piece of turquoise was a little tricky to find but Gary knew how much it meant to me and wouldn't give up the search. He found the perfect piece and finished it just in time for me to wear back to our family reunion. Thank you so much, Gary!

This has been my family jeweler for 30 years. The entire team is beyond helpful, attentive, knowledgeable and go above and beyond for their clients, providing impeccable jewelry. Over the years the countless compliments I've received from the blue Topaz earrings, yellow Citrine and pink garnet diamond rings are immeasurable. I wear my pieces daily and am forever appreciative of the service level I've received every single time I go into the store. If you have not yet purchased from the Gilmore family-- start! They are amazing jewelers and family owned. 100% recommended.

This ring was passed down to me and had decades of slime and grime built up, it was also missing a diamond. Gary replaced the diamond and repaired the ring so that none of the other diamonds would fall out. He polished it and made it look brand new! He also fixed two of my other small diamond rings and I honestly couldn't even tell what diamond it was that was fixed! He does amazing work and is super friendly and a gem to work with! (Pun intended) I look forward to have him customize my mommy and me sapphire rings! Highly Recommended Jeweler

I could not be happier with my custom engagement ring! Alex was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had no idea what I wanted so was so appreciative of her patience. I ended up with a stunning oval engagement ring in rose gold. I still look at it daily and would not change a thing! I could not say enough positive things about my experience at Gilmore & with Alex! I am beyond thrilled!

Recently I met with Gary Gilmore to have my Dad's wedding ring sized to fit my right hand ring finger. The ring has huge sentimental value, it was given to me by my Dad after my Mom passed away and we discovered the ring she had saved for me had disappeared. Both of my sisters received their rings my Mom had saved for them and after combing my dads house multiple times, we decided my ring was gone. So Dad wanted me to have his ring, in hopes I could have it remade into to a "woman's" ring so I would at least have a keepsake of their 65 year marriage. I went to see Gary with the ring, asked for his advice and we agreed that keeping the ring in tact would be far more special than re-making it into something different. Well, I picked up my ring last week and it brought me to tears. After sizing it down (11 to 5!) and buffing it out, cleaning it up, shining the gold, I now have a beautiful feminine right hand diamond ring that I can wear with pride in remembrance of both my Mom and Dad. Gary, I can't begin to thank you for doing this for me. I know it was a tiny little job but it meant the world to me and to my Dad & Sisters. My Dad was here from Washington state for Thanksgiving so he got to see it and he cried as well, along with my sisters. I will be meeting with Gary again after the 1st of the year to have some other jewelry remade. I wouldn't even THINK about going elsewhere. Gilmore Family Jewelers is the very best.....
