  Recently I bought a pre-owned Rolex online and had it delivered to a FedEx location near my office near Archives/Navy Memorial. The watch wasn't sized for my wrist so I conducted an online search to see if there were any jewelers nearby. My search turned up Bensons Jewelers just a few blocks away. Enticed by the positive ratings, I set off on the 15 minute walk to the shop. Ken took care of me as soon as I walked into the shop. We exchanged a few words and I showed him the watch. As he sized it on me, he asked where I had acquired it - to which I responded I had bought it online. Ken took my watch to the back and worked on it while I waited. He returned about three or four minutes later with a perfectly sized watch. To my astonishment, Ken would not let me pay for the service he so kindly performed. He only asked me not to forget "brick and mortar" businesses. We spoke about this for a few minutes because I agree that it is important to support local brick and mortar establishments to ensure their continued existence. I plan to call Ken soon to ask whether he can reattach the crown on my Omega. Based on Ken's customer service and friendliness, I recommend Bensons without hesitation and look forward to visiting the shop again.
