Question 1

Do you repair jewelry not purchased at Florida Diamond Center?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We repair any piece regardless of where you bought it. Ring sizing, re-tipping, stone replacement, chain repair, and most other bench work is handled in house by our jewelers. Estimates are free. Most repairs are finished within the week.

Question 2

How does custom jewelry design work?

Accepted Answer

We walk you through the full process: conversation, sketch, CAD render, wax model, casting, stone setting, and polish. Most custom engagement rings and fashion pieces take two to four weeks from approved design to finished piece. Pricing is competitive with comparable ready-made rings.

Question 3

Can you service a Rolex?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are certified to service Rolex and work on most other Swiss luxury brands including Omega, Tag Heuer, and Breitling. We handle movement service, crystal replacement, gasket replacement for water resistance, case and bracelet refinishing, and battery changes on quartz pieces.

Question 4

How do I get a jewelry appraisal in Tampa Bay?

Accepted Answer

Bring your piece to our store in Holiday, FL. Our GIA Graduate Gemologist evaluates it on the spot for resale, and we can produce a written insurance or estate appraisal for a flat fee. Walk-in evaluations are free and carry no obligation.

Question 5

Can you restore an antique or heirloom piece?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Restoration returns a worn or damaged piece as close to its original condition as possible. We specialize in filigree rebuilding, period-appropriate stone replacement, engraving restoration, and reconstruction of missing sections. We always discuss what to preserve and what to rebuild before starting.

Question 6

How often should I have my jewelry inspected?

Accepted Answer

Once a year for everyday pieces like engagement rings and wedding bands. We clean, polish, and check prongs and clasps at no charge. Regular maintenance catches small problems before they turn into lost stones or broken chains.

Question 7

What is a collateral loan on jewelry?

Accepted Answer

A collateral loan lets you borrow cash against a piece of jewelry without a credit check or application. We evaluate the piece, make a loan offer, and hand you cash the same day. You redeem the piece by paying back the loan plus interest within the agreed term.

Question 8

Does Florida Diamond Center buy diamonds?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We buy loose diamonds, engagement rings, estate jewelry, watches, and gold scrap directly from the public. Bring the item in for a free evaluation. Our GIA Graduate Gemologist grades diamonds on the spot. We make a cash offer with no obligation.
