The year was 1916 and Oakland, California was bustling with manufacturing industries for internal combustion engines, shipbuilding and automobiles. Opening its doors that year at 20th and Broadway, Davidson & Licht would one day become the oldest family owned and operated jewelry store in the San Francisco Bay Area.
At that time however, Benjamin Davidson, a diamond broker and Arthur Licht, a jeweler's son, were only beginning the journey of the full service jeweler. Soon after World War II, many Oakland residents began moving to surrounding areas such as the newly developed East Bay suburbs. The second generation of Davidson & Licht followed suit by expanding into Walnut Creek.

The ASHOKA is a patented diamond cut that is as distinctive as it is beautiful. A unique arrangement of 62 facets creates a dazzling prismatic effect, giving the ASHOKA its fiery brilliance. The process of cutting an ASHOKA is extraordinarily precise - every finished stone of identical weight has the exact same proportions and dimensions.

First time visiting the store. From the guard at the door and the staff, they all greeted me and were cordial. A professional relaxed vibe. Staff was responsive to anyone entering. Welcoming them and offering any assistance if needed. Kevin assisted me and did it with professionalism. He explained everything that was to happen before actually initiating it. Leaving me standing there with the confidence that this is a well run establishment. I'm sure the clientele they sell to are financially well established. With that said, I didn't feel as though I were treated any different. Kevin and Crew provided

I had a great experience. Started with leaving an inquiry through the website about a Tudor watch. Jake responded promptly via e-mail and left a number to call. I spoke with Jake and he was very accommodating. I could not be more grateful. He made the process very easy. I would definitely recommend.

From the moment the doorman opened the door for us we were greeted with smiles. Water and treats were offered immediately. Our sales consultant, Kevin, was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. The entire team was superb. We were even offered champagne. Kevin took his time with us and explained everything about our purchase. Highly recommend them. They offer elegance and excellent service.

I had a great experience buying a watch here. Made shopping fun rather than stressful. Very relaxed and no pressure to buy anything, and a really great selection of watches. Huge thanks to Ruslana for providing great service and for being so helpful with my questions. I must have forgotten to take the manual home but she sent it to me. Wound up getting a Tudor and I love it!
I’m already looking at other watches and will be coming back here next time guaranteed.
