The company has successfully adapted to the changing landscape of luxury retail, adding high-end watch brands such as Patek Philippe and Rolex to its inventory.
Under the leadership of Thomas Blumenthal, who is the grandson of the founder, Gearys has expanded its operations beyond Beverly Hills, with additional locations in Century City and Santa Monica. This strategic growth reflects Gearys’ dedication to meeting the demands of a discerning clientele looking for luxury goods and exceptional customer service.
The Impact of Expansion on Local Luxury Market

With an increasing number of affluent customers seeking exclusive high-end brands, Gearys’ expansion adds to the variety and specialty of luxury offerings available in the area. This move is anticipated to not only attract local shoppers but also draw international visitors who associate Beverly Hills with luxury and prestige.
As Gearys continues to grow its brand and product offerings, it remains focused on providing an exceptional shopping experience that reflects the values of quality and craftsmanship synonymous with luxury brands like Patek Philippe.
