A Recap of Our Best Transformations of 2022

It has been an incredible year of repair transformations! Thank you to all who have stuck around to read all our features in 2022.

There have been 139 highlights since we started the Before & After blog series! We initially started posting some of these transformations on our social media platforms, including Facebook and Instagram.

With many many repair before & after highlights later, we’d like to start highlighting each year’s best jewelry and watch transformations to end the year!
