Great selection and excellent service

I entered the shop and was immediately welcomed and informed that they were dog friendly. There was a good selection of luxury brands available and watches on display.
Sam was very helpful, knowledgeable and patient as I selected several watches before narrowing them down to a particular one and even then she showed me a couple of other “wild cards” to try on.
Excellent service throughout and I’ll certainly be visiting again for my next watch!!

Our Banks Lyon Jewellers shopping experience

My husband and I wandered in to Banks Lyon Jewellers 2 weeks ago to have a look at men’s luxury watches.
Denise who looked after us, was very friendly and courteous and with her help and experience my husband narrowed his choice to 2 .. a Longines and a Tissot.
As he couldn’t decide between the 2 Denise was able to offer a discount for if we were to purchase both…. Which is what we did so thank you Denise for all your help and advice and understanding.
We had a great time choosing the watches for my husbands special birthday, I especially liked the bubbly!!🥂.

I needed to purchase a very special item of jewellery and didn't really know where to start. I had visited the shop before and was helped by Denise who was 1st class.
When I was ready to purchase the item I returned to the store and was helped by Hannah Mackay. Hannah was kind patient did not put any pressure on me to buy but presented a number of options.
As a result I did actually purchase the most expensive option but it was absolutely worth it.
Great service from the whole team but a special thanks to Hannah.

Top level service and support

I have been absolutely delighted with the service that Aziza from Banks Lyon provided when I recently went about buying an Omega watch. Our interaction was over several months as I talked with her about different models. She patiently supported me with information and availability with no high pressure sales of any kind. When I was ready to buy, Aziza ensured a smooth, easy transaction and the watch was delivered to me in no time at all! So delighted with my Omega watch and with the service I received. I will be returning if my wife ever lets me buy another one!!

A new customer for life.

After my dream watch felt completely out of reach since Omega only offer 3 years at 0% APR now, I had almost given up hope. Then I came across Banks Lyon on Google and found they had the final production line of the exact model I wanted, with 5 years at 0% APR. That alone made it possible for me to finally own it.

What really made the experience stand out was Aziza. She helped me through every step, from the finance to the watch details, and even went out of her way outside of working hours to make it happen. The aftercare since buying the watch has been just as great.

Thanks to Aziza and the team at Banks, you’ve gained a customer for life.
