Joel Singer attention to detail is unmatched. I used him to create a custom engagement ring. Joel explained to me the 4c of diamonds (color, clarity, carat weight, and cut) so that I could pick out the optimal diamond for my price range. The ring came out 10x better than expected I was absolutely floored how amazing the setting and diamond is! After doing all the research of online vs in person I would definitely recommend going to Joel over an online shop!

Joel "King of Bling" Singer helped my fiancé create the ring of my dreams!!!!! Not only is it absolutely stunning, I get so many compliments on it every where I go! He is such a professional yet makes the entire situation so personal! I would recommend him without a doubt it my mind, you will be ecstatic with the results! Love, love, love him!

love love my ring from joel

joel is amazing. He helped my fiance pick out the best ring ever. I love it. So many people give me compliments. He did an amazing job of the ring. It was to small, my fiance called him the day before and asked since we were going to be in the area if we could drop it off and have it fixed. He said of course. I was expecting to have to wait at least a day or two till it was ready, nope he said drop it off and come back in a few hours to pick up. I was so excited and Impressed. He even cleaned it for me. They are so awesome and i want to get my wedding band from there.

This is the ring that Joel made/designed for me!

Joel is a really great guy who sticks to what he stands for. Joel stands for quality, fairness, and good customer relations. My fiance and I worked with Joel to create a custom engagement ring. Joel is patient and receptive to suggestions and preferences. He worked with us for over an hour to make a multitude of decisions about the engagement ring. Joel's style includes drawing things right in front of you, showing you where each stone would go. If you want something different, he will redraw the entire thing again. By the time you leave, he will have obtained from you all of the details needed to build the ring (or other jewelry) you are imagining in your mind. To my understanding Joel is pretty old-school. He uses paper and pencil to draw things with you, and doesn't waste time/money on the unnecessary step of Computer Aided Design (CAD), something that many jewelers insist on for custom jewelry and costs $1000+. Joel also helped us find a great center stone that was beautiful and unique. I decided to go with a canary diamond because I like to see the colors in my stones, and he recommended we go with this clear yellow versus an off-color "white" diamond. I thought this was a very intelligent decision, and one that I wasn't even aware of before meeting with him. He showed us how the canary would sparkle when set in the yellow gold, and how well it would contrast with the white diamonds on the side of the ring. Joel is also not a person to say no. He doesn't say "that's not possible" when it comes to design. Yes, he'll say if he can't obtain a certain kind of stone (ie if it doesn't exist), but he is very creative about fitting your ideas into a design. I was worried about fitting my wedding band flush against the engagement ring, and he commented that when they solder it together, they will just cut a tiny piece of the wedding band away so it fits flush. At another jeweler, they simply said it "wasn't possible" for the band to fit flush. When I came in to see the mold of my ring, I was shocked by how spot-on it was. Everything was exactly as I had described, even the one detail I had forgot to mention, he had also put in exactly the way I wanted it! I would give him an A+ in terms of replication of what I described. Joel's customer service is also very good. You can call him directly and speak with him. The best way to have a meeting is to call him ahead of time and schedule a meeting. Joel offers a lifetime warranty on his jewelry (his lifetime). If a tiny stone falls out, he will replace it free of charge. A ring can be re-sized free of charge. He also encourages you to come in for free cleanings 5-6 times a year where they will buff out any scratches in the metal. In terms of pricing, Joel is very reasonable for a custom jewelry item. We got a quote from another jeweler as well, and while they were offering a similar price, we believed the quality/value of Joel's product was higher. We came to Joel based on a personal recommendation from my fiance's friend (whose mom has gotten several pieces of jewelry from Joel over time), and we will be happy to recommend him in the future. I would highly suggest calling ahead before walking into the store!!! Also, have all relevant people present. Be direct that you plan to have something made, and you will be happy with the results as well as the quick turn-around, everything is made in the building where he works!

Love my ring from Joel!

Ten years ago, Joel created a custom engagement ring for me - it was a spectacular piece of jewelry and Joel could not have been nicer to work with.

I sent out a request via yelp to a whole bunch of different jewelers that were local to Lincoln Park and Lakeview. Lincoln Park Gems, was the first to respond! I spoke with Victor, who was incredibly friendly and pleasant said that he was planning on closing a little bit early because it was New Year's eve, but then offered to stay a little later in order to help get this watch sorted that night! (Totally did not need to do this). When we arrived Victor, (very well dressed, stylish gentleman) sat us down, made my son, and I feel very welcome, and then proceeded to explain what he was going to do to the watch and made suggestions about how many links to remove and why. He was able to make the adjustments very quickly, under 5 mins and was extremely pleasant and professional from start to finish! All around. A+++ service and done with a genuine great attitude and welcoming vibe! I'll definitely be back for anything else I need adjusting/fixing jewelry or watch related!

My experience buying an engagement ring through Dimend SCAASI was nothing short of amazing and I…read morecan't recommend them enough to anyone shopping for a ring or jewelry. What stood out about Dimend SCAASI was their selection of settings and stones at some of the most competitive prices. I was a little nervous about buying a ring online, so I booked an in-person appointment, and I'm very glad I did. The team was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They patiently walked me through the entire process, showing me all the different settings, cuts, and options while answering every question I had. Working directly with Isaac was a highlight. After I shared my budget and preferences, he found a stone that matched exactly what I wanted and ordered it that same day. As another thoughtful touch, he scheduled a time for me to view the diamond in person once it arrived and assured me that if I wasn't completely happy with it, he'd replace it at no cost and no questions asked. The entire team made the process an absolute joy. All communication was responsive and they were very accommodating with my engagement timeline, ensuring the ring was ready well in advance. When I picked it up, the diamond grading report, insurance details, and additional paperwork were all prepared and ready, and the ring itself looked stunning. Everything turned out great and my Fiancé absolutely loved the ring. I'm thrilled I found Dimend SCAASI and can't say enough good things about the experience. My Fiancé and I are already looking forward to returning for our wedding bands!

The lady that helped me told me that the person that would service the watch was not in and would it would take a couple of days. A few days later they call me and tell me that the watch isn't working with the new battery. I thought it was weird that it wasn't working since it was before the battery dies. So I took it to the Swap o Rama flea market and the gentleman there opened the watch and told me that they bent a piece that holds the battery in place. He said instead of removing the piece probably by removing the screws they tried to pry it out and in turn scratching the pieces and bending the piece. So he ended up ordering the replacement parts and fixed it for me. I wouldn't recommend this place. If you do happen to do business here be very careful because if they are doing this type of work, I can imagine where else they're cutting corners or deceiving customers. Whether it's with watches or gold jewelry that they sell or buy. I mean, I got my watch fixed at a flea market for God sakes.

This review is LONG overdue…read more After looking online and at a couple of different 'big box' type jewelry stores for an engagement ring and just not finding what we wanted, we decided we wanted to go the route of having a custom ring made, and so we ended up at Holtzmann's. Pam and Pat Holtzmann are the most phenomenal folks around. When you're in their store, you feel like family. They are super friendly, and made you feel comfortable from the get-go. They are both super patient, and they really take the time to educate you on different stones, and different aspects of design to help make sure that you're creating a jewelry piece that will last a lifetime with proper care. We ended up having my engagement ring and my husband's wedding ring made by them, and then after having my husbands wedding ring made, I ended up wanting to make a more feminine, mini-version of his ring to be able to wear myself as well, and they helped us make that too. The quality of the jewelry pieces we received is outstanding, and working with Pam and Pat was the same. We valued getting to work with them so closely on pieces we plan to wear a lifetime! Although we had rings made, Holtzmann's specializes in all types of custom jewelry. We happened to pop into the store at the tail end of another couple leaving who had the most beautiful custom bracelet made, and at another visit saw someone picking up a necklace that they had redesigned with stones from a different necklace they no longer wore anymore. All of those jewelry pieces were amazing too. 10/10 recommend for whatever your jewelry needs are!!
