  • Recreate Your Ring

She wanted to update the look with a little more sparkle while maintaining the integrity original look her husband picked out years ago.

  • Rapid Prototype Jewelry- Coin Frame

    One of our customers called us wanting to have a coin bezel frame made from scratch for a coin. They wanted it to be made in 18k Yellow gold and D-F Color and Flawless to VS Clarity. Since we were making it from scratch we would start with the Rapid Prototype Cad Design. CAD stands for computer aided design, we use this to make custom designs into a 3D model. The Cad Machine will then send the info to a printer which grows the design into a wax model.

  • Rolex Submariner 16610 and 14060M Ultimate Review

    Rolex 16610 Submariner Diver Rolex

    One of the most imitated but never duplicated wristwatches on the planet, the Rolex Submariner is the iconic sports watch of the last half century. Its styling is so simple and classic that it projects elegance when needed but rugged enough for the everyday. The contrasting black rotating bezel with white block numbering complements the glossy black dial with white gold surroundings while accentuating the robust steel case and Oyster bracelet. Catching the dial at different angles and in different light, can cause the reflections to dance above the watch a reveal the rich texture of the dial itself. The larger sized Trip-Lock crown adds just the right look to even out the near perfect dimensions of this watch.
