This year
, as we have been celebrating 40 years of Peter Jackson the Jeweller, we
thought it was a perfect time to look back through the archives and reflect on
how far we have come and how much has changed.
For those
of you that remember when we used to print company magazines – this one’s for
you!
We found an article from 2007 when the company was celebrating 25 years in business.
Peter’s daughter Ruby was asked about her favourite jewellery item and we just couldn’t resist a follow up article with her now, 16 Years later.
What have
you selected?
“I’ve chosen a Canadian Arctic diamond pendant and a Ruby and Diamond ring (I just couldn’t choose between the two!)”
What
makes these items so special?
“Being half Canadian and now living in Canada, I chose this Canadian Arctic diamond because it feels close to home (and it’s incredibly beautiful!)
I chose the
Ruby because my name is Ruby so it seemed rude not to! 😊
Also, the
Ruby is incredibly significant this year as my Dad’s company is celebrating its
40th Anniversary so it seemed like the perfect choice!”
A lot of
time has passed since your first article feature, tell us what you’re doing
now!
“I am 20
years old and am going into my third year of university studying business and psychology.
I still miss England at times but I’m loving every minute of it!”
What are
your thoughts on your Dad celebrating 40 years in business?
“I am so
proud of my dad and the dedication he gives to both his business and his
family. He set the bar very high for work ethic in our family and I thank him
for that and all that he does for me”.
In her first article, Ruby said that she hoped that Santa would surprise her………who knows, perhaps this year he will!

A relationship over 10 years old and still thriving, Citizen and the Red Arrows combine to create a collection of watches perfect for aviation and watch enthusiasts. Citizen, innovators revered for technology advancement in the watch world are the perfect partner to display the Red Arrows name and here is our guide to the collection.
The
World-Famous Aerobatic Team
Founded in
1965 the Red Arrows is the world-famous aerobatic team of the Royal Air Force.
Created to be the public face of the British Air force and inspire the next
generation of servicemen, the Red Arrows is the most recognisable display team
in the World. Having preformed in 57 countries in the distinctive red ‘Hawk
Fast’ jet, the team of 9 nine pilots continue to dazzle at events all over the
world.
Each pilot
has extensive military front line experience with the Royal Air Force squadrons,
and it is seen as being an honour to be selected to be a pilot of Red Arrows.
Such is the lure and fandom of the Red Arrows that Citizen and stockists of
Citizen watches such as ourselves, receive enquiries and sales from all parts
of the world.
For any
major military brand to sign their likeness over to a manufacturer of any
goods, surely means that they believe in the quality of the products. With Red
Arrows and Citizen Watches, we believe this is the perfect partnership and
example of product to feature brand representation. With the purchase of a
Citizen Red Arrows Watch, you will get a quality made, innovative, technology
packed watch with the livery and branding of the Red Arrows to fittingly represent
the Hawk Fast fighter jet itself.
Creation
Of Citizen Red Arrows
September 2010 was the launch of the Citizen Red Arrows watch, so popular was this release selling over 10,000 units that it created the foundations for many generations of watches and still produced today. This first watch set the tone and showed the demand and appetite for such product was out there. Citizen to this day continue to create watches with so much tech for your money that savvy watch fans will not buy anything other than a Citizen watch, especially if they are spending less than a £1000.
Citizen
later ‘tested the waters’ once more in November 2011 with their first limited
edition Red Arrows model. Limited to only 500 pieces in a special display case
with matching cufflinks, this watch again was a huge success. This time
incorporating Citizens atomic-timekeeping eco-drive movement. Could you imagine
if you had a pristine one today, what an amazing collector’s item to own!
Our own
personal relationship with Citizen dates back to 1985, the days before
computerised till points where every sale was handwritten but Citizen was
inspiring the watch world with their amazing value products then. They invented
their ‘Eco-Drive’ technology in 1976 and it’s amazing to think that thanks to
their patent, no other watch movement with a power cell invented since has come
close to this today. Even the big Swiss watch houses cannot produce a battery
movement that provides the same reliability without breaking patent laws. We
have seen Citizen continue to prosper and it’s been great to see the
development of their Red Arrows collection.
The
Current Red Arrows Collection
For 2023, Citizen has 9 watches as part of their Red Arrows collection all with different features and a mixed price range starting from just £279. Regardless of the model, the base of the movement before add-ons is built from the ground up using the Eco-Drive technology. Powered by any light (not just sunlight, artificial light too) the watches lithium-ion cell is constantly recharging providing a watch that never needs a battery change. Citizen is so confident of their Eco-Drive movements that all their watches regardless of price come with a 6-year warranty, amazing for watches of this price structure.
The Red
Arrows collection, rightfully so, is curated with aviation and watch fans in
mind. All the watches have some form of technology that is sure to wow research
buyers. No one ever complains that they are not getting a lot of watch for
their money. The base models at the very least feature ‘world time’, tracking
24 cities across the globe. They also feature other useful timekeeping tools
such as a chronograph and the all-important Red Arrows branding and display
case.
Moving into
the higher price products, you find the kind of technology that any real watch
geek loves to see, such as radio-controlled atomic clock synchronisation for superior
accuracy; set your location and your watch will auto set the time, day, date
month and year! Within these products you will also see limited edition
releases, with numbered editions still proving to be popular and sell out over
ten years since the first.

A watch is often the final considered piece of an outfit. Whether you want a watch for everyday wear or to mix it up with statement pieces, we’ve put together a guide to buying a ladies BOSS watch. From coloured stand out pieces to more petite minimalistic dials, there is a watch to suit everyone’s style.
Founded in 1924 Hugo Boss turned heads in 2022 with a full rebrand and we saw the separation of Hugo and Boss. Both sharing the same level of quality and design innovation with the main difference being the style. BOSS have introduced a new logo, aesthetic, and colour palette. Offering a bold, contemporary look the new BOSS has a more playful, laid-back aesthetic while still retaining their codes of dressing excellence.
With a new all-star cast presenting the Spring/Summer 2022
#BeYourOwnBOSS campaign featuring talents and personalities such as runner
Alica Schmidt and models Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner. BOSS are sure to
stay at the forefront of fashion and with that in mind we’ve put together the reasons
why a BOSS watch should be your next purchase!
An affordable luxury brand, Peter Jackson the Jewellers ladies’ BOSS watches range from £149 – £269 and with our ‘pay in three option with Klarna’ you can spread the cost even more.

With styles seen on the 2022 runways, BOSS are ahead of the trends with a watch to suit all styles. BOSS are sure to keep your 2023 wardrobe up-to-date. A timeless accessory that can be worn all year. BOSS offer bold, statement timepieces. From coloured minimalistic dials to mesh bracelets we love the range of quartz watches that BOSS have to offer.
BOSS introduced a camel, white and black colour palette as part of their 2022 rebrand. In-keeping with this colour scheme we love the subtle warm tones of the ladies’ ‘Breath’ rose gold tone bracelet watch. A minimalistic dial is a fast-growing trend, the Breath watch is the perfect example. Protected by mineral glass with a deep grey sunray dial providing the background, we love the complimenting rose gold tone hour markers and three hand movement. Attention to detail is key when it comes to BOSS watches and the Breath watch is no exception. The bezel is decorated with BOSS branding and light catching stone set markers ensuring you stand out from the crowd.
For someone who prefers a bold look why not add a pop of colour to your wrist with the ‘One’ gold plated bracelet watch with a stunning deep green dial. For a more subtle colour palette we love the champagne and peach tones of the ladies ‘Felina’, ‘Grand Course’ and ‘One’ bracelet watches. There truly is a style for everyone! While being fashionable may be key to some when looking for a watch, comfort for day-to-day wear is also important. All BOSS watches can be adjusted to fit your wrist comfortably at Peter Jackson the Jeweller.
The Perfect Accessory
A BOSS watch is the perfect choice to complete your outfit. With many on-trend, statement styles available, a BOSS watch also doubles up as a piece of jewellery. Why not maximise your look with a matching set?
One of the main feature products on the 2022 BOSS campaign and a nod to headline dominating ambassador Hailey Bieber, the Hailey link gold tone bracelet watch is a favourite of ours. Feminine chic; the ‘Hailey’ is an effortlessly elegant timepiece that is sure to dress up any outfit. The petite rectangular 28mm gold case features a minimalistic dial and pairs perfectly with the bracelet, necklace, and earrings. Also available in stainless steel, there is a style to suit everyone’s tastes.

Here is our guide to finding the perfect men’s Hugo Boss watch and why should you buy a BOSS watch from the world-famous German fashion house. Hitting the sweet spot of fashion focused but ready to wear for many occasions, Millennial style is the aim for BOSS by Hugo Boss and with this ethos, BOSS continues to be a big hit at Peter Jackson the Jeweller.
#BEYOUROWNBOSS
A full
rebrand after 50 years, Hugo Boss set out in 2022 to re-invent themselves by
distinctly redefining their BOSS and HUGO ranges. BOSS is the more luxury side
of the brand and the watch range to buy if you want to enter the next price
bracket. Whilst HUGO is aimed at Gen-Z.
Working with
new ambassadors such as international TikTok star Khaby Lame, South Korean
singer and actor Lee Minho, British professional boxer Anthony Joshua, Italian
tennis star Matteo Berrettini and Hollywood superstar Chris Hemsworth, BOSS
have cleverly marketed themselves to be more recognisable and certainly a great
reason to invest into their product.
Buying a
fashion watch should make you feel good and on trend and if the branding is
more recognizable, then your watch will get spotted and complimented more.
Let’s be honest, the compliments make us feel good and proud of how hard we
work to afford some luxury goods in our lives.
Affordable
Luxury
Justifying
that luxury purchase can be at the forefront of many men’s minds when making a
purchase, often re-searching beforehand. When buying a men’s watch there is
obviously a vast amount to choose from but getting it right for you is not
always simple.
Firstly, for
us, you have got to love the look of the watch! Hugo Boss being fashioned focus
are ‘nailing it’ at the moment with clever plays of colour and shapes season
after season. If GQ magazine is happy to put their name to BOSS products such
as this one, the Steer GQ Men of the Year Watch, then you know you are
investing in a great product.
Taking inspiration from powerful watch houses such as Zenith with their ‘Defy’ or TAG Heuer with their ‘Aquaracer’ you can find watches from BOSS with a luxury look and feel for less than £500.
Premium
finishing is still there despite the price tag, any gold, black or colour tones
used on the steel of the watches is produced with a PVD finish, the same as the
big watch houses. PVD is a sophisticated way of plating metal and ensures the
finish is a longer lasting enhancement to the metal. Again, for less than £500
and in some designs less than £300, this is providing products for great
quality at excellent value.
Sporty or
Classic
Buying a BOSS watch for any man can come down to tastes and how and where to wear the watch. BOSS have expertly curated a range of watches that fit the ‘sporty’ and the ‘classic’ looks and some that fit nicely in between.
Considering
how and where you wear your watch the most often, would be a good
recommendation in us defining your invested purchases. If you would like a
watch to wear to work in a corporate environment with a more formal work attire,
then the classic route maybe your best choice. But if jeans and a polo is going
to be more your thing with your new watch then the sporty route will probably
be your choice.
When buying
any watch, especially if this watch is going to be your main wear piece,
getting the style to match you the most is so important, and this will maximise
your investment. Get it right then you know your intentions of wearing this
watch often will easily be achieved, outfit to outfit.
Hugo Boss
have been really clever with the BOSS range of watches, the classic pieces are
more subtle, slimmer designs to meet the criteria of classic, whilst the sporty
are bolder and play with ‘in-style’ colours and features.
Buying a
BOSS Watch
All BOSS watches come with a branded display case and a 2-year international warranty, and we provide free shipping and gift wrap on all online orders. We also have a mixture of payment options too, with Klarna and PayPal allowing you to spread your payments.
Getting the purchase right the first time isn’t always possible, and if you order your BOSS watch and its not right for you, as long is it is un-worn, we can provide a free return service, and we will be happy to help find the perfect BOSS watch for you. Alternatively, you can visit our stores in Blackburn and Preston to try on any of the BOSS watches.

Just when
you think the gift giving has calmed down, February approaches out of nowhere
with the most romantic day of them all, Valentine’s Day. Valentine’s Day, also
called Saint Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine is most commonly
celebrated on the 14th of February and in modern tradition is a day
used to celebrate and show ones love or affection for another individual.
Gifting on
this day comes down to people’s desire to make this day as important as they
want it to be. But we all agree, that in the drab month of February, any excuse
to have a day filled with joy and love should be embraced.
So, whether you are searching for ‘Gifts for Her’ or ‘Gifts for Him’ we have some great options to gift this Valentine’s for your girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, or husband. With gifts ‘under £50’ or more ‘luxury goods’ we have plenty of options, or is now the time to think of a 2023 proposal? Here is our guide to ‘Make It a Valentines to Remember’.
‘LOVE HEARTS’
The history
of the ‘Love Heart’ symbol is not the clearest to trace as to when it was first
used and recognised as a symbol of love. Some believe that it dates to the
Middle Ages with possible early examples or direct predecessors in the 13th to
14th century. But most believe it was popularised and tied to the history of
the ‘Sacred Heart’, a Catholic Devotions, wherein the heart of Jesus viewed as
a symbol of “God’s boundless and passionate love for mankind”.
A love heart
symbol is without question, one of the most recognised symbols in 2023 across
most cultures and society and as such is used frequently in messaging for all
occasions. For Valentine’s Day, the love heart symbol is the perfect way of
representing love for another by the gifting of an item featuring the symbol.
For the jewellery
industry, the Love Heart has been a major feature in many designs of brands and
traditional jewellery manufacturers. Never out of style, or defined by trends,
Love Hearts are timeless and can be subtle features in a design or the centrepiece
of many examples of jewellery.
Our browsing page dedicated to Love Heart jewellery showcases a great array of options. We have a beautiful selection of gold and silver pieces in bracelets, earrings, and necklaces; there really is something for all tastes.
‘POPPING THE QUESTION’
An engagement proposal is often tied to holidays or special days in the calendar and a Valentines proposal still proves to be one of the most popular. Expressing your love for someone with an engagement is truly romantic.
Having a goal date in mind for a proposal is not bad idea. The pressure and nerves created with a proposal can be overwhelming and finding the perfect date to propose can be a tough choice. At Peter Jackson the Jeweller, we are here to help take the pressure off buying an engagement ring. With a great array of diamond rings to choose from we have a good starting point for anything you have in mind.
One question on many people’s mind when proposing is, “what if the ring is not right for my partner?” This is a perfectly normal question and one that we are happy to ease your fears with. We are always happy to exchange or amend the size of any diamond ring after your proposal. Getting engaged is meant to be one of the most special moments in your life and we want it to be perfect for you.

Going the extra mile in a purchase isn’t always about price, it’s about quality too and here are some of our favourite brands keeping style and substance at the forefront for watches and jewellery.

The freelancer diver 2760 is the latest limited-edition timepiece
here from RAYMOND WEIL. The inspiration comes from their deep-rooted connection
with Geneva as a brand and a family. But it’s the detail of the watch that
makes it special. We spoke with Elie Bernheim, CEO of luxury Swiss watchmaking
brand, RAYMOND WEIL, to learn a little more about their latest limited-edition,
the freelancer diver 2760.
What
does it mean to you to tell the story of Geneva through this new watch?
Geneva has been the home of
watchmaking since the early 16th century, so for us to be able to
celebrate our rich family history with the city is a pleasure. I have so many
fond memories of Geneva and Lac Léman especially; we are proud of our Swiss
heritage here at RAYMOND WEIL and the unique design of the freelancer
celebrates that.
What’s
your favourite thing about the new freelancer limited edition? For me, the engraving on
the back of the case of the Jet d’eau. A hugely recognisable landmark of Geneva
and, a place I visit with friends and family for many special occasions.
Tell us about the design of this new watch?
At the heart of the new freelancer
diver watch sits the Calibre RW4200, a Swiss automatic movement with a power
reserve of 38 hours. The model is water resistant to 310m, the depth of Lac
Léman. Indeed, this latter figure inspired RAYMOND WEIL to limit the production
of this divers’ watch to just 310 pieces. Endowed with a blue gradient dial,
the freelancer diver Geneva Limited Edition pays tribute to Lac Léman. Mid-blue
tones populate the upper reaches of the dial.
These transition to dark blue hues adjacent to 6 o’clock, a visual
metaphor for the deepest, darkest parts of the lake.
Our take on this
watch.
In an extremely competitive world of
luxury watches ‘The Freelancer Geneva’ is a testament to Raymond Weil’s ethos.
A watch of beautiful style and substance produced for exceptional value. This freelancer
on its own certainly is a handsome piece, but when you combine factors such a
limited number case back of just 310 and build quality that many brands are now
pushing way beyond the £2000 price threshold, this makes this watch a great
investment.

Finding the
Perfect Ring
At Peter Jackson the Jeweller we are on hand to guide you through the daunting
experience of finding the perfect ring. Regardless of your knowledge of
diamonds or any gemstones we can take you through process of finding the ideal
ring for your loved one. If you have an idea in mind, then great! If not, there
is no need to worry. By the time you have browsed our range and chatted with
one of our experts, you will be confident in your choice and even if the ring
is not 100 percent to your partner’s tastes, we will be on hand to help supply
something that is just right.
With an extensive range of luxury rings for all budgets ready made to go, there are ample options to choose from, but if bespoke is more your style, we can work with your ideas to create just what you are looking for. To start your journey, take a look at our full diamond ring inspiration page here and feel free to book an appointment with us in store or virtually if you have any questions or would love to discuss full bespoke.
A Cut Above the Rest
You can find here our dedicated page that can be
browsed by the different shapes; a great way to see the options available and
the beauty of each. It’s also worth noting that if you see a diamond on our
website that you like, but you would prefer it set differently, for example
from yellow gold to platinum, then get in touch and we can arrange this for
you.
Delivering For Christmas
Part of our
award-winning service is the level care and dedication to working under
pressure. If you are in a pinch and short of time, you can be assured we will
do everything we can to make it happen! As all of our diamonds are hand
selected by Peter Jackson himself, the rest of our team work with Peter to
source and fit diamonds to your ideal setting in good time. None of our diamond
engagement rings come ready made to us. Each ring is handset and certificated
by ourselves and this ‘hands on’ approach means delivery is entirely in our
hands.
As Christmas
gets closer, don’t let that be a put off to your decision of proposing, with
next day delivery service on all rings on our website, we can ship to you in a
timely fashion. If for some reason the ring size is not correct after proposal,
, we will then arrange a return with you and re-adjust the ring right after
Christmas all for free!
Our stores in Preston and Blackburn also have a vast selection of rings. This means that even on Christmas Eve if you decide now is the time, you can travel to store and find a ring that is sure to delight your loved one. The teams instore love showcasing our dazzling collection and being part of one of the most important moments in your life.
Our
Magical Proposal Tips
The proposal
itself, it can be a nerve-racking experience, but in all honesty, it’s about
finding the ideal moment for you. Some people love the thought of a grand
gesture in front of many friends and family and then there are those that wish
for it to be more intimate, so consider this first. Also, think about a date or
a day that is important to the both of you, maybe Christmas Day isn’t the best
choice, maybe Boxing Day or New Year’s Eve means more to you or your companion.
Sometimes, complete spontaneity may have more of a caring effect long term, as
random as the 28th December may sound, maybe that day becomes just
for the two of you for now and forever.
Location is
key! Christmas is a time when your home feels most ‘magical’! Twinkling fairly
lights, seasonal candles and colourful settings, your home has already been
dressed up to feel special this time of year and take advantage of it! But if
an outdoor proposal is something you have pictured for a long time and if the
weather is just right, then picture a long walk in the crisp air all wrapped up
were there is just the two of you and no one around and if you are really lucky
the fluttering of snowflakes.
Whatever you choose, time, date and setting just remember to take a deep breath and enjoy the moment too! Your planning has now paid off and its time to celebrate.
