We brought my engagement ring in to be repaired. The Diamond Connection did a great job repairing the broken band. We are so happy with the results!

my friend got her engagement ring and her husband's wedding band here. She took me here for a ring shopping for my engagement ring a few months ago. We were able to try on a number of rings, to get an idea of the style diamond, cut, color, and right size! We were here for at least an hour, the staff was super helpful, inattentive to us. They have a great selection of diamonds and can custom style to whatever you're looking for. The prices can't be beat! My now fiance, ended up ordering my ring here, and I'm absolutely in love with it! highly recommend this place if you are engagement ring shopping, or if you're looking for nice quality jewelry.

What an amazing experience, I couldn't ask for better! I was initially overwhelmed with the process of shopping for an engagement ring but Aaron and Nancy were extremely thoughtful and helpful guiding me through it and were never pushy about budget/upselling. The custom ring they made is absolutely beautiful, and most importantly my fiancee loves it! I can't wait for us to come back for wedding bands and we will be recommending The Diamond Connection to everyone we can!

Aaron and Nancy thank you for the advice and for the clean up! I will definitely recommend you to my family and friends.

I brought in an heirloom ring that was missing stones and hadn't been cleaned in years. It looks brand new now and I can't wait to wear it every day. Wish I had taken a 'before' photo to show the transformation.

Highly highly recommend! Aaron was wonderful straight from the beginning. While shopping for my engagement ring, I went to a lot of the major retailers and was not finding anything I just loved. So my Cousin brought me to her jeweler, Aaron. Pretty quickly I found a setting that I immediately fell in love with! A beautiful halo with belted galley detail, tapered with quilted interior design. Part of the A.JAFFE Classics (Timeless) collection. Aaron even had the perfect band to go with it. So I eagerly told my boyfriend who took over from there. Skip forward to the good part I received my ring in the most picturesque setting and was blown away. It was absolutely gorgeous! You can say I am a little obsessed with it haha. Trust me, you won't find a better place that values customer service with quality items than The Diamond Connection.

My fiancé met with several different jewelers in the San Diego area and found The Diamond Connection to have superb customer service. They helped him navigate picking out the perfect engagement ring. They reviewed the available rings in the case, which were not quite what he was looking for, so they partnered with him to design a gorgeous engagement ring together. They provided timely updates throughout the design process and allowed him to review each mock up before proceeding to the next step. He also was looking for a specific type of diamond, which they were able to facilitate and order. We cannot wait to partner with them for the design of our wedding bands. Thank you so much and see you all soon!!!

Together at last  (designed in secret!)

I'm overjoyed at how beautiful our wedding rings turned out! We went to 6 different fine jewelry stores in SD and felt most at home with The Diamond Connection. It's a special shop to us, intimate and friendly, and had fun during our return visits to plan anniversary bands! The collaboration with Aaron and Nancy, and their connection with jewelers all over the country whose original designs brought our visions to life made the process all so much fun. I wish I could do it all over again just to spend more time in their shop--they're such sweet people!

David didn't ask basic questions like our names, budget, or where we were in the process, and offered little guidance. We are early in the process, so I was hoping to try on different styles to get a sense of my preferences. But after trying on just a couple rings there was no effort to understand my priorities or suggest alternatives. I felt like I had to push just to see more options. Our 2PM appointment was essentially over by 2:05PM. I left feeling sad and disappointed that such an important and special moment was handled with so little care. Before going here, I recommend looking at the other 1 star reviews -- they are honest and I should've listened.

I saw a birthstone toi et moi ring on Ms. Hailey Bieber and I knew that's exactly where I wanted to take inspiration from. I found the same style, but in my daughters' birthstones, on Diamondful's Etsy page. After reading through reviews, I wanted to make my purchase here. My husband had his reservations about ordering something so expensive online, so we ended up going to a local jeweler. The local jeweler said they would be able to make the same ring for a similar price, so we considered it. However, when I went home to inspect our quote, I noticed that the aquamarine would be an imitation stone. After some light research, I learned that imitation stones can be made of plastic. At that point, I honestly felt deceived, because the jeweler didn't take the time to educate my husband and I on what we would be potentially buying. If we are going to purchase a piece of jewelry that is supposed to commemorate 7+ years of marriage and our 2 kids, it shouldn't have plastic in it. I told my husband that my gut told me we should go online, so he told me to reach out to Diamondful. I messaged Armin and within the first hour, I knew I made the right choice. Armin is extremely fast and efficient in communicating. He's exceptionally knowledgeable and honest when it comes to quality, durability, aesthetics, and practicality. He's also patient and thorough when educating clients like us (very limited jewelry knowledge). We are also so appreciative of his generosity, as he passed on his savings to us for one of the stones to keep us within our budget. The passion he has for his work is really evident in the customer service that he provides. Thank you so much Armin! It was a pleasure working with you and we can't wait to do it again soon!

I had absolutely no idea what I was doing when it came to rings, but Jackie walked me through selecting a stone cut and carat, ring sizing, and even gave input on some design questions that we had! In the end, we were able to provide Jackie a drawing of what we wanted our ring to look like, and to this day I am stunned at how perfectly it was brought to life. She also managed to keep the ring perfectly within the budget that I had allocated. It was right around Thanksgiving and I was looking to propose by the end of the year, so I had already resigned myself to having to postpone my proposal until after New Year's, but Jackie assured me that it wasn't too late. And boy did she deliver - communication during the stressful holiday season was impeccable, and she kept me updated throughout on our back and forth during the design process. She even managed to squeeze our ring in right before they closed for the Christmas/New Year's break despite a mountain of other clients with similar due dates, and words can not express just how thankful I am! I have no doubts that we will be back for our matching wedding rings, and I can not recommend David Levi and Sons, especially Jackie, enough!
