In the 1950s, George Skeie recognized the opportunity to bring Rolex to our community, securing the distinction of becoming a Rolex Authorized Retailer. This foresight anchored Skeie’s in both local tradition and the global heritage of horology, connecting generations of customers with exceptional timepieces.
Rolex and Skeie’s Jewelers History
Our History
For over 100 years, Skeie’s Jewelers has stood as a family-owned landmark in the Pacific Northwest, now four generations strong. Our story began when Ole Skeie, a young Norwegian immigrant, arrived in the United States with ambition, skill, and a commitment to excellence. From these humble beginnings, he built a business rooted in trust, friendship, and a dedication to quality that continues to de ne us today.
Over a century later, Skeie’s remains family-owned and operated, now under the leadership of Rick Beckett, Ole’s great-grandson and the fourth generation to carry forward this legacy. Just as Rolex exemplifies precision, innovation, and timeless quality, Skeie’s has always been built on enduring relationships, guiding our customers with the same dedication that first earned their trust.
From our earliest days to the present, our commitment has remained unwavering: to provide the very highest quality, to honor the legacy we inherit, and to welcome every visitor into a tradition of care, expertise, and personal connection.
