I worked with Derek on an out of state purchase of an Omega watch. Their price was outstanding. Derek was quick to return any calls and very prompt with emails. If I ever buy another high-end watch, it will definitely be through Carat.

The clerk is professional, the service is thoughtful, and the style of the watch is also new. Three years after my Breitling Airlines timing purchase, I also degaussed me for free, and now it is running normally. A+++

Mission? To serve our customers with excellent customer care and provide high quality goods and services in timepieces, jewelry and accessories for today, tomorrow and forever.
Everything is the same as fart. Those Asian faces think you can not afford these luxuries.
The quality of customer service is only in the case of what they think you are buying.

It's such an unique and amazing virtual experience working with Tiffany at Carat and Co. to customize my engagement ring! I live in CA and the store is in NY, but my communication with her via messenger/email/phone was super smooth and effective. Tiffany helped me pick the perfect pear shape diamond and customized the exact ring setting that I have been dreamed about. I am so happy with this purchase and enjoy working with her a lot! The shipping was secure and fast as well.

The attention to detail of my watch purchasing experience and passion for the craft of what Carat & Co. provides is what I will always remember. Derek tailored to my wants and needs and I was provided a timepiece that will now be apart of my heirloom. It felt like buying a watch from a brother, that is how genuine this experience was for me. Thank you Derek and Thank you Carat & Co. family for that special time.

I was looking for specific Cartier watch in NYC, and it turned out two places I looked in NYC were temporary closed. I wasnt sure about this place since its in odd location in Flushing. However I am very pleased with the selections and serive at the store. Store manager Jeanne was very professional and helpful. I was extremely pleased with the price of watch. Also she even offered me a piece of watch link for free. Which costs quiet a lot. Not sure I will need another watch for a while, but if I need I will defintely go back.

Review for the service, I went there to adjust my watch's bracelet, even it wasn't purchased here,but the service staff still accomplished my request fast and neatly and answered all my questions about how to maintain my watch with great patient. I should asked his name to express my appreciation for his discount for a veteran, my bad forgot to ask........
If I have a chance to purchase watches from them in future, I'll update this review.

This is my first time in the store and everyone was so kind and nice, it shows how there are nice people in Flushing. They show me around with many many different brands that I never knew about and how the past Olympics was by Omega. Really enjoy my visit in and wouldn't hesitate to go back in either to buy or just visit the nice people.

I reached out to Carat & Co. about a watch they had listed on their site and received a prompt response from Derek who confirmed that they had the piece in stock. Derek went above and beyond in responding to my emails and ultimately offered me a very competitive price on the watch. I never felt pressured to buy and he even provided additional photos of the piece at my request. Derek was transparent throughout the process and a pleasure to work with. The customer service here is top-notch and I wouldn't hesitate at all to recommend them to others. They took care of me and I'm sure they'll take good care of you!

Had a great experience here... Was looking for a particular Grand Seiko and I ultimately left the store with a new piece on my wrist that I am very happy with. Derek was very knowledgeable and I appreciated him taking the time to answer all of my questions---never once did I feel like I was being rushed or pressured. To be sure, the service here was excellent; very friendly and personalized. They've certainly earned my business and I will be coming back when I have my eyes on the next watch...

The waiters inside are just like a bunch of uncles, as if selling a jewellery, it s like selling a lot of jewellery. No one comes to the service as soon as you enter the door. Otherwise, it s just a mobile phone or a daze. I suggest you open it on Fifth Avenue. Flushing, never want to come a second time

We bought an engagement ring and our wedding bands here. The service was truly excellent. As this was our first and only time buying such important jewelry, we were a bit nervous about the experience going in, but we were treated very respectfully and with all due patience and attention for our needs and wishes. Thank you from this couple of two very satisfied and happy people!

First off, the store is stunning, but that wouldn't matter if the staff wasn't up to par. Well service here is wonderful. Melissa was so helpful, so kind and always responded in a timely manner. She went above and beyond even though I wasn't dropping a small fortune there like some other clients. She as well as the one of the other gentlemen I dealt with really know the meaning of customer service. A happy client is a returning client. All I can say is thanks.

Purchased one watch and left a deposit on another. Fantastic service and selection! Derek was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in guiding me to the pieces I ultimately selected. The location is also convenient, only 1 block from the LIRR, so my new watch and associated packaging were able to escape Queens with ease :). Will be returning soon to acquire that second watch!

I had the privilege of working with Derek from Carat & Co. while purchasing a bracelet for my Grand Seiko. Talk about great customer service, clear communication, and lightening fast shipping. Will definitely be my first call on any future purchases.

The store s interior is breath-taking; along with its monumental selection of timepieces. Derek, Tiffany, and Jack know their horology and their passion can be seen through their impeccable service! Thanks again to everyone at Carat & Co. for the hospitality! Left the store with a new watch and a wide grin.

Today, I came to buy a watch in the famous carat store, and it was Miss Chen who served me. She was very enthusiastic and patient. I was very satisfied and the environment of this store was also very good, so I recommend this store to everyone. You can come here! Must come to Miss Chen!

They helped me to order a special strap for a GO perpetual calendar. Somehow they even managed to get the band from Germany weeks ahead of time, and Jack was kind enough to switch it for me. Great service!

Beautiful shop in Flushing, Queens literally steps from the 7 train. Three floors of luxury brands that make any watch lover feel welcomed. Family-owned with great customer service and attention to details. Shop with confidence as they are authorized dealers for every brand they carry and they have models for every budget!

Thanks for everything and I will happily continue giving Carat & Co. my business!

I went here because it was the only store 50 miles of me that carried a watch I have been looking at. The store was beautiful and clean, and the staff was professional and kind, especially Derek. He helped me pick out the watch and even showed me how to maintain it, as it was my first automatic watch. I will definitely be coming back here!

Collecting high palette watches has been my hobby ever since I bought my first Rolex when I was 16 from working all summer. Now I ve continued this hobby with greater style and finesse and I can truly say Carat & Co lead me in the right direction with my purchases. Derek paid careful attention to detail in regards to my taste and selection. His time and effort were duly noted and I felt as if I had made a great friend toward the end of my purchases. I highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for exceptional wear and outstanding customer service. Looking forward to my next purchase! Thank you !

Went in looking for a watch to gift my brother for his birthday.
The associate I worked with, Jack, was incredibly helpful and informative; and I was able to come to a decision very the same day.
I'm not really a watch guy myself, but if I ever feel like I need a timepiece, I'll definitely stop by again.

This is a great shopping experience, Kelly beauty is very enthusiastic and professional to introduce me to the watch I bought. I am very satisfied after receiving the physical object. I am very grateful to Kelly for his professional explanation and recommendation. I will go to kelly and choose the famous car shop if I have the opportunity to buy a new watch.

Carat and Co is not like other jewelry stores who only cater to the pretentious or snobby types. If you re stopping by, ask for Derek, that man is a fountain of knowledge and you would be hard pressed to find someone who has a deeper passion for watches than him. I highly recommend Carat and Co for anyone who s shopping for any jewelry of any kind whether you re a first time buyer or seasoned collector.

I recently found myself without a watch because of a theft and needed something to replace it. I researched and researched and found the brand that appealed to me the most. My online quest immediately brought me to a renowned gray-market dealer with obvious deep advertising pockets and offering amazing discounts, but without manufacturers' warranties. Long story short, I was very apprehensive about having to rely on this company's documented and dubious service history should something be amiss so I sought to find an authorized dealer willing to discount the product reasonably with the understanding that a manufacturer's warranty is worth a premium. In a matter of a 1/2 hour after my initial inquiry, Derek contacted me and without any hassles, confusion or misunderstandings, Carat & Co. agreed to the reasonable price I proposed. I'm happy, they're happy and kudos definitely go to Derek and Allen for making happen, one of the smoothest transactions that I've ever been involved with. I could go on but suffice to say: a BIG thank you to Carat & Co. for a truly satisfying online purchase experience.

The exterior and interior are gorgeous but don't let that fool you. I came in here with my mom to look for an engagement ring. Walked in and saw two sales people just sitting in the corner on their cell phones. They didn't even greet us when we came in. They looked up for a brief second to look at us and then went right back to tapping on their phones. I had to resort to asking the security guy where engagement rings were. At this point the security had to get one of the associates to help me and she reluctantly came over to show me where the rings were (entry floor, all the way in the back by the wall). There's not much variety, probably 4 cases of rings and everything else in the store seems to be fashion jewelry or watches. All prices were retail and there's really no worth mentioning wiggle room. If you're here hoping to find a unique engagement ring at a reasonable price - look elsewhere. If you come here looking for service that you would expect from a place that looks this grand - look elsewhere. You and your money are not wanted here.

There are actually two stores in downtown Flushing. The Main Branch is next to HK supermarket and the other new store is across from Chase. If you are looking for top Quality and brand name Jewelry watches; this is the best place to go find what you want. Friendly folks and tons of name brands to choose from !

I had a stellar experience shopping here. The staff were very helpful and showed me all the in and outs of how to properly maintain and use a mechanical watch.

Since this was my first mechanical watch, it was important to me that I was picking out something that I would personally enjoying wearing for years to come. The staff did not fail in providing a great first watch experience. They were very patient and helpful.

I would definitely come back here the next time I buy another watch.

I lost one of my pearl studs so I started shopping for another pair. I was quickly overwhelmed by the options out there. Ended up working with Carat & Co to get a replacement for my go-to earrings and the sales lady narrowed down my search and I was set within 5 minutes. Efficient! I've had them for over a year now and I wear them 24/7, still as beautiful as the first day I got them!

This is a family run shop with a large selection. I would recommend them above over other large watch shops in NYC area. Staff is friendly, has good taste, and will show you competitive watches that you may prefer, in my case they made they did and I believe I bought much nicer watches for my money. Spot on pricing!

A few days ago, I visited the Clarke store in Flushing, and the environment was luxurious. I would like to thank a beautiful woman from Shanghai for his professional introduction and dedicated service. I helped me choose a satisfactory Zenith watch and invited me to participate. The exhibition of the count upstairs has grown a lot of knowledge. Friends who like watches must look for this Shanghai beauty.

My God This store is amazing. Some time ago, the founder and executive director of an international consulting company went here to change the straps and strolled around, but I was despised by the clerk. Because of wearing ordinary, even being abandoned and delaying time. Personally, I suggest that some of the clerk in this store should be replaced.

Carat & Co. is a luxurious three-story establishment in the heart of Flushing, Queens. In fact, I attended a recent event at Carat & Co., and the president of Grand Seiko of America called the store a palace for watches.



My go-to person at the store is Derek Mon. I recently purchased two Grand Seikos from Derek he offers great advice, consultation and after-sales service. He s an enthusiastic watch collector himself, knowledgeable about the brands he sells.

I highly recommend Carat & Co.!

This was my first time purchasing a luxury watch online and sight unseen, but Derek did a fantastic job to put me at ease. He promptly responded to all my emails, patiently answered all my questions, and made the overall experience extremely pleasant.

I received my watch within two days of completing the transaction and I'm very pleased with it. I would highly recommend Carat & Co. and will definitely return in the future. Great job Derek!

Derek and his colleagues are just consummate professionals at Carat & Co. They possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of high-end watches and fine jewelry. They pay meticulous detail to making sure that the customer is completely comfortable and fully knowledgeable about the products that they purchase. There is no rush nor pressure applied in making a purchase. I give them my absolute endorsement without reservation. We trust and have full confidence at them. I will not go anywhere else. Thank you so much Derek for the Grand Seiko GMT. I am looking forward for our next purchase.
