Less than one tenth of one percent of the world’s diamond crystals are selected to become Hearts On Fire® diamonds. Using the most transparent and knot-free crystals results in the maximum amount of light captured, scintillated, and reflected in the finished diamond. When you begin with the best that Mother Nature has to offer, you are guaranteed the best results.

Simply put, Hearts On Fire® sparkles more than any other diamond.

Taking Care of your Timepiece Watch services are recommended approximately every 3-5 years to replace specialty oils as well as remove dust, moisture and other contaminants that may have infiltrated.

Oil and dust combine to produce an abrasive paste that causes wear in precision parts over time, resulting in a broken watch.

To ensure your watch lasts many service years, avoid strikes or blows against hard surfaces along with temperature extremes. Mechanical watches that are automatic or self-winding rely on the natural motion of the wearer to keep the watch wound. The watch mechanism has an oscillating weight that turns when the wearer moves their wrist, keeping the mainspring wound. If the watch is not worn for some time, turn and/or wind the crown a dozen or so times to start the watch.

When setting the date, it’s best to check the procedures of the manufacturer. Some watches must not be set between specific periods (i.e. between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m.), because the mechanism positions itself to automatically change the date during this period and parts could be damaged.

Expires December 31, 2013

50% OFF CLEAN/OVERHAUL OR 50% OFF REFINISHING Stainless steel, yellow gold, platinum, and titanium watches only. Gold-plated watches excluded. Rhodium plating not included for white gold watches.

From now through Christmas, we’ll be fundraising for Corazon de Vida (Heart of Life), a local non-profit that supports 12 orphanages in Baja Mexico. Mexico does not have a foster care system to support children in need due to neglect, abuse, or abandonment. There is no welfare system to help a single parent that is unable to provide for their children. So the network of orphanages is the only hope for these children who have nowhere else to go to be safe, fed, and get an education. The Mexican government does not support the orphanages, so they must rely on donations to sustain the kids and help pay the bills.

Help us give to the little angels of Corazon de Vida! Donate online and CDV will use the money where it’s most desperately needed. Or bring in a donation of: school supplies, toiletries, kitchen and home cleaning supplies, undergarments, and the like to any of our San Diego County locations. See http://www.corazondevida.org/cdv-volunteer/wishlist for specific needs.
