We had the good fortune of connecting with John & Kaja Angel and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi John & Kaja, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
In one word: Determination. At Angel Timepieces we are determined to procure forever memories in the jewelry our clients take home. We’re determined to succeed in our efforts to provide one-on-one customized service. Personally, as parents, we’re determined to show our daughter and instill in her the morals important to us, a strong work ethic, independence, and an entrepreneurial spirit. It’s our strong determination that drives us everyday to be the premier private jeweler and watch dealer in the South Florida market. Each customer is an opportunity to prove our commitment to excellence, making each and every piece the most special for us both. To us, sky is the limit.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Angel Timepieces stands out for the custom tailored service, whether new or pre-owned, we connect clients with their dream pieces. We live for the opportunity to “nail it”, the thrill of finding the perfect fit is what drives us. Our clients appreciate our eye for detail, our strong creative flair, and our affordability. The connections we’ve made along the way are an added benefit for our customers to gain. We are proud of the sacrifices we’ve made to nurture and grow our business. Investment in one’s self, the sweat equity, it pays in spades. Through the hard times we have learned to lean on each other, the unconditional love and support in our little family of three is paramount to our success. As immigrants of Polish and Cuban decent, we are perusing the American dream to make our families proud. It is instrumental to listen to your instincts, to have confidence in your faith, and to trust the process- do not rush. Bottom line: Above all else, we are honest, hard working people and have high quality standards. Angel Timepieces is not affiliated with Patek Philippe, Rolex S.A, Rolex USA

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
So you’re visiting town? Let’s plan : Obviously we have to kick off in Miami, let’s start big at sexy fish. We can enjoy a fashionable night out and hit the town, then a late night sip at mini bar with our favorite bartender Leila- we can’t go wrong. Then we take in some culture, we brunch and we get a tour at the Wynwood Walls with Alexia as our guide. Make your way to Miami Beach for some modern art at Artechouse, then hit the sand. Head a bit south for dinner at The Thesis Hotel in South Miami. Chef Niven has us covered at Orno, (pro-tip: sit at the chef counter with Chef Alfredo) and finish with rooftop vibes at Mamey on 3rd. Now we really head south, The Florida Keys. A little sushi at new hotspot Shima. A locals spot for sunset cocktails and bites at Lazy Days. Maybe we finish the night with a dance on the sand at Pierre’s in Islamorada. We should be covered with those few points, we can add a brewery here and there, like tripping animals in Doral, or maybe some salsa dancing at Cafe La Trova. Regardless, we have you covered.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Most recently we were very inspired by the writings of Robert Kiyosaki. His profound message shed light and helped us understand our yearning to grow our business. We were able to use those tools to structure our business in a way that worked for our family. So a big thank you to Mr. Kiyosaki from Angel Timepieces!
