DBOF Is Number One

In short: I’m happy…I did my homework, spending hours and hours learning about diamonds, settings, and jewelers (both Brick and Mortar as well and internet). Places like diamondtalk and pricescope were very helpful, and I even emailed people who had left comments here. Everyone had nothing but positive things to say about Diamond Brokers of Florida.

More about my experience: I wanted a princess cut, with certain table and depth percentages as well as color and clarity specs. Jan immediately had a few stones that fit my criteria. I kept looking, but hands down decided that DBOF’s diamond was the best for me, and at a good price. Jan was great about emailing info like the GIA and other reports. She also helped arrange the appraisal with an independent company. I had the stone appraised by someone again (local) and it was all good. Maybe I overdid it with 2 appraisals, but I am very careful about such big purchases. My diamond experience with DBOF was 100 percent awesome.

Jan and I went through some setting ideas, and she was great about emailing photos and suggestions. I decided on a Vatche setting, but wanted a Euroshank modification (not so normal). Jan was also helpful on helping me decide the exact size.

Things took a little longer than we had hoped, but that is understandable since it was a very custom setting (it was out of her control since it was done at the Vatche shop). We also had a sizing issue, apparently a Vatche issue as well. We kept communicating throughout the process and I never felt worried that things wouldn’t work out.

Those two issues are heavily overshadowed by the beauty of the diamond and the setting.

I would definitely recommend DBOF. I am now in the process of the wedding band; likely to be another vatche custom job. DBOF is my number one place.
