A Note for Tarpon Springs Customers
Tarpon Springs has a long tradition of family jewelry, much of it tied to the Greek Orthodox community and the sponge industry. Heirloom pieces come through the door weekly for restoration, appraisal, or reset into modern settings. If you have a piece with family history, bring it in and we will talk through the options.
Why Tarpon Springs Customers Come to Us
Independent jewelers who work on Greek heritage pieces and religious jewelry are hard to find in Pinellas. We do that kind of restoration work regularly and keep it in house.
What We Do
Engagement Rings & Certified Diamonds
GIA certified loose diamonds and ring settings from classic to modern. See the collection.
Repair & Restoration
In-house jewelers handle repairs, including heirloom restoration. Most work finished within the week.
Rolex & Watch Service
Rolex certified service, luxury watch movement work, battery changes, and refinishing.
Buying & Appraisal
We buy diamonds, estate jewelry, watches, and gold. Walk-in appraisals by a GIA Graduate Gemologist.
Family Jeweler Since Day One
Florida Diamond Center has been run by the Valdes family since it opened. Three generations in the jewelry trade, with more than thirty years of combined experience behind the counter and at the bench. Steve Valdes III is here today, same as his father and grandfather before him.
A GIA Graduate Gemologist grades every stone. In-house jewelers handle most of the repair work. The family works both sides of the trade, buying and selling, which keeps our pricing at wholesale rather than retail. That is how we have always done it.
