I came into the store today for help with my wife’s Tag. I had the watch serviced by another jeweler who turned out to have absolutely no idea what he was doing. Glen resized the bracelet, inspected the movement, replaced the gasket and sealed the watch properly. Outstanding knowledge and service! Don’t trust your watch in any other hands! Highly recommended!!!
Following a hand injury, my diamond wedding ring no longer fit on my finger. I took it to Walter Bauman Jewelers to either have it resized or reset. Obviously theres a lot of sentimental value attached to this ring. My salesperson, Theresa, really knows her business and offered me a few options. When I decided to have the diamond reset, she helped me select a beautiful band. In my case, they offered same-day service, so I had my new ring that afternoon. Theresa and everyone else I dealt with was courteous, professional and very. nice. I cannot say enough about the great service they provided. Thanks to all for giving my wedding ring new life!
We only have one word...ROSS.Laura and I visited the store two days in a row and he was so helpful, patient, fair, honest and well, HILARIOUS! Every business needs a Ross! He made life long customers out of us.But more than anything, we really love his name (apparently, he does too because he has everything labeled with it like his calculator, his eye pad, his scanner, his card reader, his pen.)Anyhow, beautiful jewelry, beautiful people, great experience and value. Thanks for making our trip more memorable!
Walter Bauman has been around since I was a kid, once I grew up starting working I became a customer and I was always satisfied with the merchandise and the quality it is awesome, and unique styles with estates jewelry one of a kind. I love it. And the atmosphere is pleasant. Very satisfied. Just purchase these earrings yesterday.
My family & I have never had a poor experience. My husband purchase the perfect ring with the help of Theresa! We came back for my wedding band and she was right there to assist! We’ve recommended friends and wouldn’t go anywhere else! The best service and authentic jewels.
Theresa did such an amazing job with our engagement and wedding rings. She has a great way to help you select the right ring from so many great choices. Walter Batman is a high end jeweler but they always have something in my price range. Check out the estate section, I always find some unique pieces. I been shopping their for years and will continue to do so.
Ross was very helpful and communicated with me every step of the way in designing a pair of earrings. We used one old stone and one new one that he matched perfectly. Highly recommended!
Walter Bauman has a beautiful and wide selection of jewelry. Ross is incredibly knowledgeable and honest in his work. He always helps us find the perfect jewelry to fit our taste and budget. We are so grateful to have worked with him twice now and look forward to the next time to come. Thank you Ross!
Walter Bauman is a great place to buy jewelry. Ross really helped me pick out some great stuff and made the shopping experience a pleasure. I would highly recommend it.
My wife and I have been working with Ross for the past 6 years when he helped us with our engagement, wedding and anniversary jewelry. Hes the best. We missed him when he left. SO HAPPY HES BACK. Monica and Jeff
Ross was so helpful and thoughtful in helping me turn my ruined engagement ring into beautiful earrings and helping me find the perfect replacement ring. I am thrilled with everything about my experience at Walter Bauman
My mother and I sold some of my grandmother’s jewelry and we are thrilled with the experience. Ross (who was wonderful) was patient and thorough and we are very happy with the price we received. Letting go of family heirlooms can be emotional and Ross was respectful and kind. We will be back!
Amazing experience here. Went in cluelessly to pick out a gift. Theresa helped out and guided me to the perfect selection. Highly recommend
The experience of selling my silver and gold to Walter Bauman was mostly positive. The man I dealt with was professional and honest in keeping with the reputation Walter Bauman is known for. My disappointment was really in the fact that I was only paid 50% of the jewelrys market value. While I understand that the owners wish to make a profit, and that is entirely fair, a 50% profit margin is rather large. I was hoping to get around 75% of my jewelry value.
Very pleased with high level of customer service provided by Theresa. Whether it it be repurposing a family heirloom or creating a one-of-a-kind custom piece of jewelry, she will always make sure that you are 100% satisfied with your purchase. Highly recommend Walter Bauman’s for your all of your jewelry needs.
We’re very pleased with Theresa and her expertise. A satisfying experience all around Joan
Walter Baumans Jewelry store is the best. The staff is personable and friendly and they never make you feel rushed no matter how busy it gets. I bring my repairs to them designer jewelry included as they do an excellent job. I have also purchased beautiful estate jewelry from here. Proud to support a local business while receiving excellent service.
It was good, went to sell some jewelry .dont go there for that.they dont give you a fair price.
My visit to Walter Bauman Jeweler was a great experience. No pressure. I like their displays. They have a wide selection. Nice selection of estate jewelry. Also, if you are looking for kids jewelry, good selection. They also have lovely customer jewelry too.
Shopping at WBJ was such a pleasure!! Our experience was enhanced by Ross, who was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Absolutely loved that the entire estate section had QR code’s linked directly to a wbj website with details and pricing. Speaking of, the estate section is incredible!! Highly recommend this jeweler, they definitely go out of their way to make sure you’re 1000% satisfied. And love the family business feel!!

I went in today to buy a birthday present. It was the most pleasant jewelry shopping experience Ive ever had. I gave the saleswoman, Barbara, my budget and she was extremely respectful of it, not trying to up-sell me beyond it and not being pushy about any products. She toured me around the entire store to show me my options. I ended up purchasing a beautiful tanzanite ring, despite not looking at other stores, because of how wonderful Barbara was in not only respecting my upper budget limit, but in the time she took, without rushing me, to explore all of my options. I will definitely be back soon for my engagement ring!
Walter Bauman has very good customer service from people who care about you and your happiness. Thank you to the staff @ Walter Baumans
The best legit jeweler in the oranges with the great selection along with great customer service, especially from Theresa at the West Orange location!
Impeccable customer service and quick! I had a ring cleaned and resized.
Ross took care of my needs with ingenuity and grace. The woman who arranged to have my watch battery changed was very efficient. The experience was a pleasure.
I have repeatedly received excellent customer service from WBJ, whether for maintenance of watches, resizing rings or procuring special gifts. I like to browse through the estate items finding those obscure, one of a kind gems! The folks give you service without the smother.Ross is the Boss!
Great products, great service, Theresa is a star! Highly recommend...
Theresa is the best she make sure you is 100% satisfied with your purchase, explain everything to you takes her time she dont rush you in making your decision. Im very happy with my purchase and I thank her very very much. I love my diamond stud earrings.
Theresa helped me. Pleasure to work with, went the extra mile so I could get my ring in time for my vacation.
I have loved Walter Bauman’s for a number of decades now!! Everyone there, right up to Walter himself, is friendly, patient and helpful. They take the time to be sure you’re happy. Often they will offer alternatives that you may prefer, even though it may not benefit them. They have beautiful items for every taste and every pocketbook. I always look forward to my visits to WB!!
Yes had a good experience with salesperson Teresa took good care of me my wife love her Mothers Day gift
Walter Bauman’s has been my go to jewelry store for over 40 years! Superb service that I always trust for the best prices and fabulous customer service 💕
Today I went to Walter Bauman Jewelers in West Orange to have some of my moms jewelry that I inherited, appraised. I met with Dan Miller who did the appraisal for me. I love going to this place, everyone is always so friendly & proffesional and Dan proved that once again. He explained everything he was doing while appraising my moms diamond that my dad bought her for their 30th anniversary. Dan confirmed, my dad had great taste in jewelry!I had such a pleasant time and Dan was a blast to hang with for an hour. Plus, he cleaned the diamonds and OMG I cant stop staring at this ring.I would definitely recommend Walter Bauman Jewelers to anyone looking for good quality jewelry from a very reputable company. They have been in this location for over 50 years. However, it doesnt look like my Moms store anymore. Its beautiful inside, I could spend hours just looking around. It’s bright and cheerful and the entire front of the store is all floor to ceiling windows and it’s always spotless.They also do repairs and buy gold, sometimes adding 20-30% to the total.In addition, theres plenty of parking behind the building.Love the grandson Walter too, hes always smiling and so pleasant.
Great store and wonderful service. Ross helped me walk around the store and find a piece for my wife that she loved. Thank you!
Theresa was very helpful and knowledgeable. She helped me pick out the perfect gift.
I was treated very well and given a very fair price. I am very satisfied with the service Ross gave me.
Theresa is a delight to work with - knowledgeable, extremely helpful and warm! Look forward to working with Theresa in the future and will recommend her to all our friends!
Walter Bauman Jewelers are the BEST in NJ they are a Famiiy owned Business that treats their Customers like Family when it comes to pricing.! !Stop in and see for yourself ...,
Best experience, great pices and prices, happy to Shop there.
They had just what I needed. My new Jewelry store
Amazing experience at the store! Sales are so great at the end of the year! A+ customer service!
I broke off a diamond on my Hidalgo ring and decided to bring it to Walter Bauman Jewelers. I picked the ring up today and you cant even tell where the diamond broke off! Exemplary service! Walter was very nice and a pleasure to deal with! I I would recommend this jeweler to anyone looking to make a purchase or to have a repair done!
I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful jeweler so close to home. Every time Ive been into the shop, Ive gotten amazing and quick service. The staff is very friendly and helpful.Whether you are looking for a gift, something for yourself, or need a repair (or whatever you need), I highly urge you to check out this shop. You will be pleased you did.HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
The service from this store with 2nd to none. A pleasure from the entire staff
Theresa was fantastic! Great customer service!
I just left Walter Baumen Jewelry and had the one of the best shopping experiences Ive had at any jewelry store. Due to my job Im always in a rush so I really appreciate when I get a knowledgeable and efficient sales person. Dan Miller was exactly that. I asked for an opinion on a chain for my pendant and within 30 minutes I had purchased a beautiful chain for a great price and had my existing chain cleaned for me. This is a great example of true customer service. He knew what I would like, was helpful and knowledgeable in his suggestions, helpful in pricing and went above and beyond by offering to clean my other chain all while having friendly banter. This is a true gentlemen and excellent salesperson.
Excellent service from Ross.
Caring and honest team. Selection is always top notch and current. The floor team is knowledgeable and has a very deep understanding of what works for any occasion.
Our very first time visiting the West Orange store. We have a wonderful experience. Janet is awesome. Keep up the great job! You a very lucky to have her in your team. Highly recommended.
Love 💕 this place
I had a great experience working with Eric K. in selecting a beautiful engagement ring for my fiancee. He was very helpful in explaining the basics about diamonds and found a great stone in my price range. I would highly recommend working with Eric.
Walter Bauman Jewelers has a beautiful large selection of jewelry and the staff is extremely nice and knowledgeable. I was looking for a special gift and Barbara helped me giving excellent suggestions, explaining about the various qualities of diamonds, etc., and very patiently helping me select the best gift. They have a customer in me!
We can’t say enough about our Walter Bauman experiences.I purchased my fiances engagement ring in April of 2017.When it came time to purchase our wedding bands we knew we were definitely heading back to Walter for those. Eric was beyond helpful to find exactly what we wanted (as one of the wedding bands was not something of the usual) and at the price we knew we needed to be.We left both times extremely happy and will be back for future purchases.
I love shopping for Estate Jewelry I met Janet she is a wonderful and very patient sales person. I was there Saturday December 4 for a watch battery she was so helpful and I would recommend her to anyone she is a valued employee. Janet keep up the good work.
For over 30 years; Special place, Special people....
With patience, care and professionalism Walter Bauman Jewelers of West Orange helped us restore and renew heirloom family jewelry. The whole experience was terrific. I highly recommend them! Thank you Theresa !
Ask for Barbara! She is extremely knowledgeable regarding inventory and trends. She will help you put a personal touch on any piece you are looking for. Plus, Barbara is a pleasure to talk to!
Although very nice staff and jeweler, as an inexperienced customer, I was charged an exuberant amount of money for a setting they made for me that was not worth all the money for the ring quality that I received back. I only realized how much I overpaid after I did more research which I should have done prior. If money is not the object then this is the place for you
Ross Fields at Walter Bauman is great. He made the process such a seamless and easy process for us. If you’re ever looking for a jeweler, look no further and head over to Walter Bauman and ask for Ross. You will automatically be treated like family and he will assist with anything and make your vision a reality.
Janet is ALWAYS pleasant and willing to assist.It is so refreshing to know that as a saleswoman customer service is TOP priority to her.
Very friendly and accommodating
I should start by saying I never buy jewelry, but i stopped in to get a watch fixed. Janet assisted me with the watch, and I’ve been wanting to get a ring for a long time. She found me exactly what I was looking for, she wasn’t pushy and made it a great experience.
Eric helped us at the Clifton location, before it closed. He did a fantastic job helping us to customize our selection, was patient and knowledgeable, and even stayed late so we could complete the process! We were very happy with the result. Thank you!
Janet was really helpful with my purchases. She did a great job. Thank you.
Shopping at Walter Bauman is always a special experience. The merchandise is so unique and the staff so welcoming and knowledgeable. Whether I need an unusual gift or simply feel like treating myself, this is my go to store!
Went to Walter Bauman in West Orange to have some small diamonds replaced in my engagement ring setting. They were courteous, knowledgeable, and did a beautiful job in replacing the stones and cleaning the ring. I felt that I was in excellent hands. Highly recommended!
DON’T GO HERE! These guys are the epitome of incompetent. It’s a shame as well because they decent merchandise. However, so does several other places that are definitely more worthwhile going to, which I strongly urge you to consider before ever thinking of going here.Never have I met people so incompetent, so transactional, so fixated on the sale opposed to the customer service experience. I am actually disgusted with their level of service, lack of integrity, and their handling of my recent situation with them.Story: I purchased an expensive Movado watch in 2014 from the mall. A small piece of the buckle part of the watch strap broke. So I took it here to get fixed because WB sponsors Movado. Opposed to replacing that small part, they “insisted” on replacing the entire band, which they made me pay for. However, the manufacturer of the watch stated they’re supposed to replace it for free because I owned the watch for over 2 years. So they deliberately lied to me to get a sale. Which is just a classless, disgusting tactic, and they should be ashamed of themselves. The worst part was THEY PUT ON THE COMPLETE WRONG COLOR STRAP ON IT. Now the watch itself appears more dull! So not only are they dishonest and not helpful, they’re also dumb as well! Thank God I wasn’t there to witness this (my father was the one who picked it up) or the scenes would have been flat out bad. I don’t know if I’m more mad at them, or myself for initially listening to them. Either way, PLEASE.. JUST … NEVER… GO .. THERE!!
Penny Starks......Best Jewelry store ever! Love Janet! She always finds just the perfect piece for me!
After having an issue with service with the West Orange location, I was contacted by the store owner. He listened to and addressed my issue. All problems were solved to my satisfaction. I appreciated the follow up by management and their desire to rectify any problem I had.
Dan Miller is a real gem, no pun intended. Love the estate jewelry and the great customer service that Dan provided to my sister and I. Cant wait to go to this wonderful friendly first class jewelry store again.
Exceptional experience at Walter bauman!!! Russel helped me out and he got my watch working and fitted to perfection.
Went to trade in some old jewelry, they really took care of me and gave me top dollar for my old gold and silver. Im always hesitant about trading gold or silver in because Im never sure if Im actually getting what I deserve, but I was very comfortable here and have made this my new jeweler for all my needs. Thank you guys so much, see you soon Walter Bauman!
Janet is always helpful, love this store, everyone knows me by name, highly recommended for all your jewelry purchases. Stop by, amazing collections
Erik was a great help. Went out of his way to help us out. Definitely will be coming back
Always a great spot to go to for a gift, watch repair or anything in between! I love it. Definitely always going to be one of my go-tos!
Great selection of New and Estate Jewelry great loyal Customer Service!
Janet was so helpful what a wonderful sale personShe always know what Jewlery is right forKnadya
Janet was a wonderful help with assisting me in all my needs and left very satisfied with the service and my purchase, thanks again Janet!
Janet was very helpful and I would definitely return to this store.
Do your homework when it comes to selling your fine jewelry and diamonds. I would not suggest going to WB. I was shocked at what they offered for a very nice quality diamond I was selling. I received 4 times that amount from a very repuable jeweler in Manhattan.
Such a bad experience today. I walked in and waited about 4 mins until someone walked to me, that was after the manager told 2 older woman to stop chatting it up. Neither of them wanted to work that day I guess so they both looked at each other to see who was going to assist me. Finally one walked over and so rudely asked what I needed. I said I needed a replacement battery for my watch, she grabbed it it from my hand and said it would be $28 because of the type of watch it was (which I didn’t mind). But she was so rude, I decided to take my business elsewhere. I rather pay more somewhere else where they are a bit nicer to be honest. I used to come here all the time, but not anymore.
Went in to get an idea how much they would buy my wedding band and engagement ring for. The jeweler threw both of the rings into a little bucket scale. It was a terrible price not worth mentioning what they wanted to pay me for the rings. Never going to them nor will I recommend them to anyone.
Not only did I find beautiful vintage Mikimoto pearls here at a great price in the estate section, the jeweler service is top-notch. I had already had them resize one ring; today I had them take a large solitaire from its old setting and remount it in a 1930s art deco setting I found online. They did a superb job, adding millegrain detail to the prongs and polishing it so it sparkles like crazy. I would recommend both the sales staff AND the jewelers for all your fine jewelry needs.
My mother purchased her wedding rings from this jeweler and when my fiancee started shopping this was the first place that he started looking. He purchased my ring from them and I love it!!
Great prices. Great customer service. Never a bad choice.
Disgusted by my treatment at Walter Bauman. My family has been long time customers at this store, and we have brought my grandfathers antique Bulova watch for battery replacement for years. Last year, we purchased a 5 year battery plan, but yesterday, they refused to replace the battery, stating their documentation said the battery was for a Rumor brand watch. Even after I did an internet search to show there is no watch brand that even exists with that name, and that perhaps the information had been entered erroneously, and despite that weve brought the same watch here in the past and were long time customers, the employee refused to honor our 5 year plan. He was rude and dismissive, and gave no regard to our long history as honest and loyal customers.I am appalled by how this was handled - and the refusal to honor the age-old the customer is always right - not to mention we had just made an expensive jewelry purchase days earlier for my brothers wedding this week! Absolutely disrespectful and callous treatment, and you most certainly have lost a family of customers. Shame on you for how you treat your local customers.
Hello,I would like to begin by letting everyone know – BUYER BEWARE.I came into this store (West Orange, NJ, 07052) on November 10th 2015 and spoke to one of the sales persons on the team. I will not disclose the name so they shall be referred to as “R”. I was picking out a gold name necklace for my mother for Christmas. I had picked out a 14K gold necklace with a nameplate. I did not like the chain that came with that necklace so I asked if I could choose another chain. “R” showed me other chains and helped me pick out a different chain for an additional cost. The original nameplate and chain was $200. The separate chain was going to be another $200. The grand total was going to be $400 plus taxes. I was fine with that price. “R” stated that they could reduce the overall price by $40 by only replacing the chain. I made my mistake here by saying “I think that the original chain’s gold is worth more than the $40 difference, so I want to keep that chain as a backup”. That is when things started getting suspect. “R” said that there would be additional charges at this time for putting the new chain onto the nameplate. I asked “R” how much and they said that they did not know and would have to get a manager. The manager had left for the night so “R” stated that a manager or “R” would get back to me the following day November 11th 2015. At this point I felt tension in the air and realized that they might not want to get back in touch with me. Still I waited all day for someone to get back to me. I am sad; because, I was referred to this place by multiple people and now I have to go back and tell them about this incident. I am posting this on November 11th 2015 at the latest possible time as I have waited all day for their response. I will be following up and posting an update shortly. I am letting everyone know – BUYER BEWARE. If you have any questions or need me to elaborate please leave a comment.Regards,Jonathan
This jewelry store literally saved me today! I lost a diamond in my ring and they fixed me up quick and with great quality!
JANET IS WONDERFUL...ATTENTIVE, COURTEOUS, AND ACCOMMODATING!!!
