Hamilton Jewelers Revamps Palm Beach Boutique
The fourth-generation, family-owned jeweler has given its Worth Avenue store a new look.
Hamilton Jewelers has renovated its Palm Beach, Florida, boutique, located on Worth Avenue.
Palm Beach, Fla.—Hamilton Jewelers has renovated its Palm Beach boutique, revamping its interior design and bringing in new features.
The fourth-generation, family-owned fine jewelry and watch retailer opened its first Florida location in 1983 on Worth Avenue and has remained “an esteemed member of the Palm Beach community,” it said.
The renovated store has tailor-made spaces for its watch brands, including Tudor, Breitling, and Breguet, and a new presentation for its engagement ring and wedding band offerings, as well as bespoke bridal designs.
Its new jewelry salon showcases classic diamond pieces, gemstones from its “Private Reserve” collection, and a curated selection of jewelry from emerging and established designers.
“My grandfather, an innovator who was always deeply passionate about his work, ‘retired’ to Palm Beach in 1974, but quickly saw an opportunity to bring the Hamilton Jewelers experience to his new community,” said Hank Siegel, president and CEO of Hamilton Jewelers.
Hamilton Jewelers was founded in 1912 in Trenton, New Jersey, and acquired by Irving Siegel in 1927.
The jewelry retailer now operates one store in Princeton, New Jersey and two in Palm Beach, as well as Hamilton Home, a home goods store in Princeton.

His grandfather’s instinct to open up shop in Florida paid off, said Hank, noting the jeweler is one of the longest continuously operating jewelers on Worth Avenue.
“Today, Worth Avenue has become a global shopping destination and it's thrilling for us to know that we can better serve our Palm Beach clients and visitors alike with our spectacular, newly enhanced space,” he said.
The jeweler reached out to Tom Pulk of Pulk Design, who helped revamp its Princeton store in 2023, for the renovation.
The retailer stocks several luxury watch and jewelry brands, including Rolex, Breitling, Cartier, Bulgari, Mikimoto, and Roberto Coin.
