We enjoy all our visits to the Ardmore store with our sales associate Mariel Veras. She’s just a great associate who even anticipates our needs- she knows what we want before we do. All the Ardmore store staff are friendly and helpful and the store is beautiful.

The company and representative in Denver was excellent to work with on my purchase. Friendly, helpful and easy to work with on my purchase. I was out of town when I received the call and they held the piece until I returned. Would work with them on the next watch.

Megan is a rockstar and converted me from someone who would never get a preowned watch.

Very pleased with my experience purchasing online from the 1916 company! I wanted an older 40mm pre-"super case" Submariner because they just fit my wrist better. The freshly serviced watch arrived in a timely manner looking absolutely brand new and running perfectly on the time-grapher. Price was reasonable when considering the cost of a Rolex service and the peace of mind regarding authenticity. Customer support during the purchase process was top-notch, answering all of my questions in a timely manner. Will be a repeat customer for sure.

I had an excellent experience purchasing a watch from Alex. From start to finish, everything was handled smoothly and professionally. Communication was clear and prompt, and Alex was very helpful in answering all my questions, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. The transaction itself was seamless, and the watch arrived exactly as described—well-packaged and in great condition. It’s clear that Alex takes pride in providing a high level of service and ensuring customer satisfaction. Thank you!

I’ve had an outstanding experience with 1916 Company over the past year. It’s always a pleasure working with Ryan—she is incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and makes the entire process seamless from start to finish. She has assisted me with two purchases within the last 12 months, and each experience has been nothing short of exceptional. This is truly a place we love visiting. The atmosphere, level of service, and overall experience keep us coming back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier jewelry buying experience.

If I could rate the 1916 company 10 stars I would. What wonderful people who always greet me as a friend and valued customer. Always an excellent experience. I've purchased several watches from Charles Chaikaew and it is always such a pleasure to deal with him. He isn't a salesperson, but rather an advisor and friend. Can't say enough good things about the company and the fantastic employees who make my every visit such a pleasure!

Being my first time buying a diamond, I did not know what to expect. However the experience was fabulous. Todd was amazing with his interest in my need to wow my wife and getting to know me. Beautiful and inviting building. Planning to go back with my wife.
