The Flagship Exterior

Long’s 7 Newbury Street flagship occupies a classic red-brick brownstone, blending 19th-century Back Bay architecture with a two-story modern interior. The building is the latest storied chapter for a jeweler that has operated in Boston for 146 years.

The Leadership

Fourth-generation jewelers Craig and Judd Rottenberg, who serve as president and principal of Long’s Jewelers.

Luxury Row

The store is situated on Boston’s Luxury Row, home to some of New England’s ritziest retailers.

Immersive Showroom Layout

The open floor plan moves between display cases and seating areas, accommodating both walk-in browsers and clients interested in longer conversations about specific pieces or brands.

The Patek Philippe Lounge

dedicated first-floor room houses the Patek Philippe collection, fitted with dark wood cabinetry and formal seating consistent with the Swiss manufacturer’s presentation standards.

Branded VIP Experience

The Patek Philippe showroom carries the brand’s own design language throughout — finishes, materials, and casework sourced to the watchmaker’s specifications.

Floral Hospitality Detail

Long’s sources seasonal flower arrangements from local vendors, a detail repeated throughout the store that has become a recognizable part of the shopping experience.

Private Consultation Seating

Enclosed rooms off the main floor are available for bridal consultations and service appointments, offering a degree of privacy less common on a busy retail corridor.

Artistic 3D Window Display

Rather than conventional product displays, the street-facing windows feature a three-dimensional crystal installation that was commissioned for the store’s first holiday season on Newbury Street.

The Marble Staircase

A gold-veined marble staircase with glass railings connects the watch-focused ground floor to the jewelry showroom above — the store’s most prominent architectural feature.

Contemporary Designer Selection

Alongside established names, the store carries a rotating selection of contemporary and emerging designers, a portion of the inventory that is updated on a rolling basis.

Second Floor Service Bar

bar on the second floor offers champagne and locally sourced refreshments — an amenity that has become standard in high-end retail but that Long’s traces back to longstanding family business hospitality practices.

Showroom Curves (Second Floor)

“Upstairs at Long’s” features light modern finishes and curved glass displays, creating an airy atmosphere that is a departure from the darker, more formal treatment of the watch floor below and which is designed to make every guest feel like a VIP.

Private Outdoor Patio Lounge

rear patio — unusual for the densely built Newbury Street block — gives guests access to outdoor seating away from the street.
