We got our wedding bands from Brian, and the whole process has been extremely pleasant! Price was very reasonable, compared to both online stores and nearby stores in diamond district.Resizing the ring, engraving all were pretty straightforward, and rings also came out on time! Highly recommending!

We worked with Gem to create our dream ring and he made the process so smooth, transparent, reliable, and went above and beyond educating us on everything we needed to know. He made himself available for over an hour on two separate occasions and over the phone countless times. He created the most beautiful ring and made us so happy. We can’t wait to come see Gem for our bands and any future jewelry need!!! Ultimate Diamond is the best!!!!!

My husband and I did not know where to start or knew anything about diamonds or engagement rings- we were completely clueless. We live in Houston, Texas and visited a numerous amount of jewelry stores but always left not satisfied. My sisters engagement ring is from Ultimate so when I told her I could not find anything up to par in Texas, she recommended I go to Choi from Ultimate Diamond and I will say, it was the BEST decision we have ever made. We flew into New York to meet with Choi and it only took one visit to start the process of customizing my engagement ring. She was very informative and patient with us and we did not feel rushed or forced into anything which is what I loved about this place.This review is long overdue (I got engaged 11-15-19) but Every time I look at my ring, I have this huge smile on my face.Thank you for making my dream come true Ultimate Diamond!

We were looking for to buy GIA diamond stud earrings for a while. After seeing reviews from ultimate diamond, we called the agent. First we spoke with Moshe on the phone. Then we made appointment. He was very friendly, kind and honest. They have so many inventories available. Moshe showed me all different sizes and clarity. He is very patient and not pushy. The prices are reasonable and I would say the best price in the diamond district. The owner lady set the earrings for me in half hour. We could check the laser inscription at the store too. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for diamond. I will definitely come back for future if I have to buy.

If I could give this dealer a 6 stars out of 5, I would. My girlfriend and I decided we would walk into a random diamond district store one Saturday afternoon and we happened to (and luckily) find Ultimate Diamond Co. We met with Diana, who from the start was so personable and easy to work with. For context, I am a young dentist working in NYC as a resident in a hospital setting, and my girlfriend and I were looking for engagement rings. We didnt have much experience with diamonds other than knowing the basics about the 4 Cs and an idea of the type of ring my girlfriend wanted. So Diana spent a substantial amount of time with us explaining any and everything that should be considered. We had been to another dealer before Ultimate Diamond Co that utilized the classic butter-her-up type of sales tactic, and after showing us rings I couldnt afford, they said, Youre a dentist. You make plenty, not recognizing my position as a resident in a hospital. In contrast, Dianas communication style matched what I look for perfectly. She gave us absolutely no pressure, was transparent, respectful, and clear in her explanations. As you can see from the photo attached, I can be incredibly thorough, using 3.75x magnification loupes that I use for dentistry and my macro photography set-up. To my surprise, Diana welcomed it. Her expertise in the field and years of experience were apparent, and she recognized that all clients should feel confident in their decision about a diamond. My favorite thing about her communication style was that she offered perspectives that we had never considered, even if those perspectives wouldnt lead to the biggest most expensive ring purchase. It was clear that she wanted us to make the most well-informed and educated decision we could possibly make. After two days spent back-to-back with her, my girlfriend and I decided on a ring that we liked and received a price quote. We left the store saying, We loved Diana, she was so transparent, honest, and helpful. I mentioned to my girlfriend that Diana had said all the right things to earn our trust, and we loved her professionalism and communication style. But the reality was, we didnt know her, and we didnt know if the price was as fair as she made it seem. A couple of days later, we met with a friend of a friend who works in the diamond industry. We showed her all of the price breakdowns, specs, dimensions of the stone, etc that we received from Ultimate Diamond Co. Our friend was honest with us and confirmed that the prices were extremely competitive, since Ultimate Diamond Co is not only a retailer but also a wholesaler and is therefore able to offer clients more competitive prices. They also confirmed that, as Diana had told us, the stone we selected was a unicorn, and that because of the dimensions, the stone appeared far larger than its actual carat size. Because of our friends expertise, it validated our trust in Diana, and that evening I put a deposit down on the stone. When we went, we had just missed Diana before she left, so we met with Ronny, Bill, and Danielle. I have to say that I did not expect to feel so familial with the staff when 4 days prior, they were all strangers. They were all so personable and easy-going as well. A week later, I came back to Ultimate and we finalized the setting and the ring. My soon to be fiancee and I cannot recommend Diana and the staff at Ultimate Diamond Co enough - they will show you the attention, the clarity, the honesty, and the pricing you need to make what normally would be a very stressful purchase one of the most enjoyable and confident purchases youll ever make.

Great staff! I wanted to make sure I had the perfect engagement ring for my fiancée. Gem and his staff were amazing during the whole process and they delivered a magnificent diamond for her. This was the first time I’ve ever bought jewelry and they not only helped me pick the perfect stone, but helped educate myself on diamonds before even making a purchase. We are both excited to do the wedding bands from this wonderful business. Customers for life!

John Kirali of Ultimate Diamond helped me pick the perfect engagement ring for my fiance. He was extremely knowledgeable and able to answer any questions that I had. He also went above and beyond and stayed after store hours to help me get my ring sooner than I had expected so that I could propose earlier. The rest of the employees who I interacted with were just as friendly and helpful and this store had a wide selection of quality diamonds to choose from. All around great experience and I would highly recommend

I walked by with my fiancé and ran into the inventory guy. He told us to come in, from that moment on it was the perfect place to purchase a engagement ring. Brian with the inventory guy were amazing with their customer service. They didnt pressure us. They were genuine interested in matching you with your ring. My fiancé love how attentive they were with her. As a simple guy that was overwhelmed at so many stores it was nice to come across Brian in the Ultimate Jewelry Designs. He made the whole experience 100% better. So thank you, i will be seeing them in the future for anniversaries, birthdays and more.

I cant say enough good things about Billy and our experience shopping for an engagement ring at Ultimate Diamond. Navigating the whole process of engagement ring shopping was a little overwhelming and uncomfortable; we looked at some reputable retailers, both in and out of the diamond district, and on a whim went into Ultimate Diamond Co. after coming out of another appointment. It was a total breath of fresh air. Billy was really genuine in listening to what we wanted, and explaining how we could get what we wanted while staying in budget. He didnt try to sell us on something we didnt want and was really helpful in explaining the ins and outs of purchasing a diamond, and what meant what. We ended up finding the perfect stone and had the band customized. It was exactly what we wanted, less than what we anticipated spending, and the whole process was much more comfortable than in any other place we went... I went in 2 years later to have the ring resized (because I procrastinate), and he knew exactly who I was. Im typically not the type to leave a review, but for such purchase I know it would have been helpful for me to read this. There is a reason these guys have 4.9 stars and they 100% deserve all the good reviews they have.

We have selected our wedding rings from Ultimate Diamond. They showed us a nice selection of rings from very plain to with beautiful ornaments and diamonds. Then, we came back to engrave our names and wedding date for which there were a few problems but they strived to fix and make it up for us with all their efforts. Very personal and excellent service with super friendly people. Very much suggested!

My wife and I went to Ultimate Diamond following a friends recommendation and we were thoroughly impressed! We walked in with a bit of hesitation after being harassed by a number of other store owners on the street but the hesitation went away quite fast as soon as John Kirali welcomed us in.He guided us through the shopping process with professionalism, courtesy and charm. We had a specific design in mind, he showed us beautiful options such as classic diamonds and colored diamonds that could go well with it. We had a tight deadline and thought to take the time for this gift but John assured us that he was able to deliver the ring within a week. And deliver, he did: the final result is beyond our expectations. The jeweler improved the idea of the design smartly and he has definitely a good eye.I would definitely recommend.

The guy Gem tells you everything you want to hear make sure you have him write the specifics on everything you purchase down to Every single detail he found me outside after I had been to many reputable jewelers in the diamond district but he assured me he was the guy that would make my dreams come trueI told him exactly what I wanted (provided a photo and every detail) I had cash gave him a hefty deposit he wrote on a receipt platinum and gold not specifying it would be 14 karat when I finally pick it up I asked him what karat of gold it was he said he wasn’t sure right then I knew something was fishy every thing he did on the ring was cheap I was promised a platinum setting With a 18k gold band Which I specifically stated matched the Rolex I purchased for my fiancé I told him I was on a tight timeline and I needed it within seven days he didn’t return my calls said he was going to play poker when he finally did return my calland produced the product 11 days behind schedule He overcharged me for the diamond by 20%(fair market) and I ended up with a 14 karat white and yellow gold setting Be very leery when you purchase from this jeweler The guy will tell you anything just to gain your business

I absolutely love this place. If I could give ultimate diamond 10000 stars, I would. My fiancé and I had been to so many jewelers in the diamond district for many months looking for the perfect stone. The second we stepped into ultimate, I knew this was the place for us. My engagement ring is everything I could have ever dreamed of and more. John helped us and he was polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. This place has fantastic customer service. The quality of their work when they put together these rings is incredible. And No pressure from the associates whatsoever! I will most definitely be coming back for my wedding bands and other jewelry.

Highly recommend! My fiance and I didnt know where to start or who to trust when looking for a diamond engagement ring. We felt very comfortable and informed by Bill and his team. They educated us on all of the qualities and characteristics of diamonds so we felt like we were making an informed decision. They were not pushy and let us take our time...we came back multiple times! We did a lot of research and comparison on our own and Ultimate was the most competitive with pricing.

Ask for Abe. He is magnificent, as was our entire experience. Zero pressure, wonderful staff, beautiful store and gorgeous diamonds. I walked in with a tennis bracelet from Cartier and asked Abe if he could make a necklace of the exact same quality. A week later we walked away with TWO amazing pieces that will be in our family forever-- the stunning 18 tennis necklace and an absolutely breathtaking colorless pear-shaped pendent. It bears mentioning that both pieces together were a similar price of brand name bracelet alone. In that respect, the value was unbeatable. We will always go with a small business if they can create the same or better quality product and in this case, we were absolutely thrilled with the result. Come see Abe at Ultimate and make your diamond investment go further. We have found our jeweler for life and look forward to our next visit!

Amazing experience, couldn’t have asked for anywhere or anyone better than Bill and his team. The experience is so different than many other places you’ll go where they give you a price and tell you that you “have to trust the person you’re buying from,” even though you’ve just met them. The people at Ultimate will walk you through the pros and cons of every bit of the process and make you realize that they’ve built your trust by being knowledgeable and honest. I’d highly recommend buying an engagement ring or any piece of jewelry here. Keep up the great work and thank you again!!!

I know many jewelers but I wanted to check this place out after being referred by a friend. I met John and his demeanor was made me ultimately trust him. He was calm throughout this process and was never pushy. He gave me options, gave us honest advice and worked within our budget. What more could we ask for? This store also honestly has the best selection I’ve seen so far. John worked with my fiancé to ensure I was surprised. The final product and our experience made us very happy ❤️

Ultimate Diamond was a great experience start to finish. We came in after having shopped around for wedding bands. Jane was patient and answered all of our questions. The value and quality were unmatched. We knew we were in good hands! When our covid wedding was delayed and we needed our bands fast – Jane was responsive and promptly shipped our bands. It was a relief having such great service. We can’t wait to go back and buy future jewelry from Ultimate Diamond!

Let’s face it, searching for the perfect engagement ring can be a daunting experience so my son in law to be asked for my help. After lots of research, Ultimate Diamond Co appeared to be the most impressive so off we went. Our appointment was made with Diana (highly recommended). She was incredibly knowledgeable and patient with us. Diana showed us many choices and explained each one in great detail. After finding THE ring, we left confident and happy. Needless to say, my daughter’s breath was taken away!On another note, a few days later, to my surprise, there was a mini documentary on CNBC about the diamond district. ‘Street of Dreams” with Marcus Lemonis and who was on it? Ultimate Diamond Co! If your searching for an engagement ring or anything else sparkly, I strongly recommend watching 😉

Gem is truly amazing. I’m absolutely in love with the engagement ring!My friends referred us to Gem because they purchased their engagement ring with Gem a few years ago. Our experience with Gem was fantastic from beginning to end. Gem took the time to give us a comprehensive presentation on the 4Cs. He was very transparent and has a wealth of knowledge in the diamond industry. We were both impressed by the level of customer service and his attention to detail. It took us 2 trips to finalize the diamond and the setting, and Gem was extremely patient with us and he made us feel very comfortable. When we picked up the ring, he helped us look at the stone through a 30x microscope!This is the only place you should visit when shopping for diamonds and I would love to come back for jewelries in the future!

My wife and I found Abe and Ultimate before we got engaged in 2011. We are very proud to have a near 10 year relationship with Abe because of his honesty, transparency and commitment to making my us happy. I’ve referred my mother, sister and countless other people to Abe and everyone is just as happy as we are. We’ve purchased many items from Abe and Ultimate over the years and look forward to continuing our relationship for many years to come. Highly recommend!!

Abe is the absolute best! We had many other experiences prior to going to Ultimate Diamond and meeting Abe, and we are so happy to have worked with him!

His friendly demeanor and excellent customer service will definitely have us going back to him over and over in the future.

Gem at Ultimate provided me with an amazing shopping experience for engagement ring. He understood I was very focused on the details of the stone and we tracked down the exact stone I was looking for, a very elongated oval at the precise carat size I wanted. His selection really exceeds what everyone else on the block has. Gem is a wholesaler so his prices cannot be beat. He offered full transparency, we even looked at the stone through a 30x microscope! He was patient with me as I came back about 3-4 times with family members to help me pick out the right stone.He was then able to help me translate some pretty vague criteria about the setting I heard second hand from my then-girlfriends friends into the exact ring my now-fiancé was looking for!Ive since returned to the store with my fiancé to get the ring resized as I did not have the right ring size originally. She loved the store, as its clearly quite classier than many establishments on the block.

STOP looking elsewhere for that perfect engagement ring, this is where you need to come. I was originally referred to Ultimate Diamonds by my cousin who bought his ring from them. I independently did my own research, and Ultimate Diamonds was one of the only 5 star shops with over a 100+ reviews. I messaged them on yelp and within minutes they were able to answer my question. Im in sales and pride myself on customer service and fortunately so does Ultimate Diamonds.My now Fiancee knew I was eventually going to propose and I decided to take her with me to see Billy at Ultimate Diamonds. Billy asked us all the right questions to help us figure out our budget, the setting, and the cut that was right for us. Once we decided on the cut, he showed us several different diamonds to see what resonated with us the most...was it the color, the clarity, the carat, etc. He went a step beyond the basic 4 Cs and taught me about depth, girdle, inclusions, feathers, table, etc. I went and did a ton of my own homework and told Billy what I had decided regarding budget, the 4 Cs, and all other important factors.Two days later Billy had found three diamonds, all of which fit the bill of what I required in my diamond as well as nice to haves. I picked one of the diamonds and Bill had my setting customized to fit the stone perfectly. He told me he would have the ring ready in 2 weeks, but it was ready in less than 10 days.I didnt know where I was going to put the ring for two weeks before I was going to Aruba to propose and Billy was kind enough to hold the ring for me in his safe. I came to pick it up the day before our big trip, and he cleaned the ring for me to give me that extra sparkle.He wished me luck, and congratulated me after she said YES! He gave me a great price, and my fiancee literally could not be happier as he made her dream ring become a reality....I will be sending all of my referrals to him.

I had an excellent experience with Abe in purchasing an engagement ring. I didn’t know much about diamonds, but in my first visit Abe coached me through it and showed comparison after comparison until I had a good understanding (with no pressure on buying anything at all). We stayed in touch for some time and he later helped me pick out the perfect diamond for the setting within my budget. Great experience, very comfortable and easy. I would highly recommend. Ultimate also gives you GIA documentations for the diamonds purchased along with an appraisal.

Weve had a great experience working with Jane from Ultimate Diamond for my engagement ring and our wedding bands. Our price point and style were a bit more modest than some of the rings you see featured in the store and on their Instagram, but they helped us find exactly what we wanted and we never felt that we were any less important to them than other clients, or pressured into spending more. They have been timely, professional, and responsive every step of the way. Highly recommended!

Gem and the entire staff at Ultimate Diamond were incredible to work with and I could not have had a better experience. I started the process of buying an engagement ring without any real diamond knowledge or idea of what I wanted, so I began using the big retail websites to get a sense of options, but it was still overwhelming. A friend then referred me to Ultimate and I’m so grateful I listened. I worked with Gem who took the time to educate me on the different C’s and help me focus on certain characteristics that would help me find the perfect stone within my budget. After looking at a few options for settings, I found the perfect one and my fiancé could not be happier. All of our friends and family are in love with the ring and are constantly asking to see it up close. Gem will treat you fairly and respectfully and for anyone looking to start shopping for engagement rings, I could not recommend Ultimate Diamond Co enough!

Review №40

My Fiancee has a very particular style of decision making. Before purchasing anything she needs to see every possible alternative. Since she might like the unknown even better. Abe & Jane where phenomenal in this regard. After trying on every single setting in their (quite large) inventory over the course of a couple weekends Abe offered to help us design a completely custom setting for the engagement ring. Several CAD drawings later and a wax mock up we knew we had the perfect ring. We even got to hang around with the jewelers as they set the diamond and polished up the final product (probably my favorite part of the whole ordeal). Abe & Jane clearly know that the best sale isnt about netting the most $, its about earning a life-long customer. We have already been back to buy our wedding bands (hers is custom yet again) and a couple pairs of pearl earrings. We will definitely be returning to Ultimate Diamond in the future and strongly recommend them.

My fiance and I had an absolutely incredible experience with Brian and the team at Ultimate. They were honest and open about the process and offered a multitude of options for the band, setting, center stone, etc. There was no pressure at all, they just wanted to help us find something she would love. Not only that, but they were able to create the ring on a tight deadline and ship it in time for a surprise engagement. Brian worked with us every step of the way to create an amazing ring, and Im so grateful that we walked in the door at Ultimate Diamond. Thank you!!

Wow they are the absolute best in the industry.My husband and I are extremely happy we found Ultimate Diamond. We met with Gem and our experience was amazing from start to finish. We were both very impressed by the level of customer service and attention to detail. They have the most beautiful stones and an impressive inventory.Our first visit was on Saturday afternoon with no appointment. From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed. They took their time and showed us some options, ZERO pressure as we were still deciding on the type of necklace I wanted. They were not pushy or salesy on the contrary we felt at ease. We have visited a couple of shops and they did not compare to Ultimate. Me and my husband decided that this is the place that we want to do business with. We went back and Gem took care of us, showed us some round cut stones and he helped us picked the most beautiful one according to I was I looking for. He listened to every detail and he created the most beautiful piece. My solitaire pendant, a classic and timeless piece. I can not stop looking at it, is breathtaking. The entire staff were all amazing, they are true professionals. This is the only place you should visit when shopping for diamonds. Thank you so much you were a pleasure to work with.!!!

I worked with John Kirali. He is the best. Professional, first and foremost, but also very personable and friendly, unassuming. I knew very little about rings and he patiently walked me through everything I needed to know. I never once felt pressured or nudged to go for the bigger stone or more elaborate and expensive option. He said it was entirely up to personal preference and what I/we liked and felt comfortable with. I had a specific band and prong style in mind and he worked with me to make it happen. He promised that the ring would be ready by a certain date and he beat that date by a day. This was very helpful because I had to leave town for a long work trip the next day. I cant recommend John enough. Walking through NYCs Diamond District can be intimidating. It feels like youre walking through a bustling bazaar. But when you step into Ultimate Diamond Co, its like youre temporarily escaping the chaos and entering an oasis of calm. Oh, and you cannot beat their prices. Essentially wholesale prices to the individual customer. Also, the payment process and documentation is all very transparent and very professional with receipts and hard copy printouts for your records. I was able to view the GIA code on my diamond using their microscope when I chose my diamond and again after the ring was completed. 100% confirmation and assurance. Theres a reason why Ultimate Diamond Co. is one of the top rated diamond stores in NYC. I would definitely recommend them and send my friends and colleagues there. Thank you, John Kirali!!

I recently purchased an engagement ring at Ultimate Diamond and could not be happier and speak higher praise of the team there. I dont typically write reviews, but Choi and the rest of the team were extremely patient with me and walked me through every single step of the process.They are extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy and did not pressure me to buy. Throughout the process, I was first educated about diamonds and the buying process. After discussing what I was looking for, Choi presented me with many different options and allowed me to rank them.Im not an easy customer to deal with and the Ultimate team worked with me and exceeded expectations with every aspect.Thank so much Choi for everything and I will definitely be returning for future purchases!

Due to my circumstance I only had a few days to plan my big proposal. I had an idea on what I wanted for a ring but I was stressed I wouldnt find it in time.From the moment I walked into the store, my confidence was a given boost. Gem and company were beyond welcoming right from the moment I stepped into the store. The atmosphere is exciting with happy couples are looking at jewelry and also relaxing. I was coached on the diamond 101 by the staff.Gem is a class act understood what I was looking with just a brief description I gave him. From this point it was just tweaking the size and matching similar settings. After a few exchanges of the pieces we landed on gorgeous ring that my soon to be fiancé would adore.I could not be happier with my experience at Ultimate Diamond Co.

Ultimate Diamond is the perfect place to get the perfect ring for the one you love. After i shopped around a bit I met Gem who helped me pick the perfect Pear Shaped Engagement ring for my now Fiance. He was able to answer all my question with a high level of expertise, and he has a great eye for detail.

My fiancé and I came across Ultimate Diamond by chance and our experience with Gem and Choi left an everlasting impression worth sharing.First time in the store we met Gem and were warmly welcomed without an appointment- he took the time to ask what we were looking for and encouraged us to browse their inventory, no pressure at all. Very large selection of beautiful pieces in store. Gem was very transparent and honest about the process and pricing of ordering specific diamonds. He has a wealth of knowledge in the diamond industry and many successful years of experience in his business. Right away we felt we were in the hands of someone we could trust and was passionate about delivering exactly what we wanted.We came back several times and also worked closely with Choi - she was very accommodating with our schedules and took the time to provide us more knowledge about emerald diamonds beyond the 4C’s. She was very patient and worked hard to deliver various options of emerald stones with the qualities we desired within our budget. Very appreciate of all the time she spent with us.When we picked out “the one”, Gem and Choi both helped put the vision together with our chosen stone in creating a complimentary setting that would enhance the center stone. Timing to create our ring was less than two weeks.The end result turned out better than we could have imagined and we are so happy with our stunning engagement ring and the wonderful process that we both took part of as a couple to create it. From beginning to end, we were treated like family and are very grateful for the outstanding level of customer service, professionalism, transparency and workmanship that we experienced. We would highly recommend Ultimate Diamond to others and will certainly return for any special pieces in the future.

My fiance and I are so happy we wandered into Ultimate Diamond Co.!! After shopping all day at various jewelry stores for an engagement ring we were frustrated that the experience was just not what we had imagined (some shooed us away, others quality seemed low, some stores prices crazy high, many didnt seem to care about earning our business or lacked inventory) Ultimate Diamond Co was the last place we went, towards the end of the evening. I could tell from the moment we walked in that it was different from all the other stores. I was greeted with a warm smile and helped right away. Billy sat me at the counter and listened to what we were looking for. There was a ton of beautiful engagement rings there but they can also customize. Billy spent so much time with us patiently educating us on 4Cs and beyond. We werent sure we were going to purchase that night and Billy never pressured us or made it seem like we had too. Ultimately we did pick a ring that night and purchased!! It is absolutely gorgeous and it cost HALF of what they charge in those mall box stores) and much better quality diamond too. I get compliments on the ring all the time. When my fiance decided to purchase they popped some champagne for me and some good scotch for him... It was my dream ring shopping experience!

Review №56

Of all the shopping experiences I had leading up to my wedding, the one with the highest satisfaction I have had was with Abe at Ultimate Diamond. Shopping for rings is always a compromise and Ultimate Diamond helped my wife and I pick the most beautiful rings we have ever seen AND made them at an affordable price. Furthermore, they have also taken care of us after the sale with ensuring the rings fit correctly and correcting as necessary.I didnt spend Wall Street money to buy these rings and I still feel (two months after the sale) that my wife and I couldnt have found a better set of rings for the price. Based on my experiences there, I have nothing but the highest praise for this jeweler and I will be back in the future for other jewelry purchases. I highly encourage anyone in the market to stop in and speak with them.

Ultimate diamonds is a special place. Gem is truly fantastic and I have been back there many times - always feeling great about the product and service. Most recently to buy the first pair of diamond earrings for my oldest daughter. I intend to keep going back for many years to come as I always get treated as family.

My husband and I love coming to Ultimate Diamond - working with Choi is always a pleasure; everyone is very professional, courteous, and provides first-class service. I got my engagement ring set here and we loved the experience so much my husband and I came back for our wedding bands. Prices are very reasonable, and they are knowledgeable and passionate about the business they are in. There is no pressure at all, they truly care about making you happy and getting you what you want. We will continue to come back and highly recommend Ultimate to absolutely everyone for top quality fine jewelry and amazing service. Thank you!!

I bought the engagement ring for my fiance at Ultimate Jewelry and could not be happier with the decision. I did a lot of research on the quality diamond I wanted, after looking at hundreds of diamonds at online retailers and visiting many diamond stores I the prices at Ultimate Jewelry was the best. Gem helped us pick out a beautiful diamond at a much lower price than I saw anywhere online or stores in the area. Gem and the staff here were very professional and trustworthy. I loved that there was no pressure to buy anything and through out the process Gem gave me his honest opinion about everything. I would highly recommend getting your engagement ring here. I will definitely be back to get the wedding bands.

The team at Ultimate is incredible. If you are looking for an experience in the Diamond District where the focus is on you, not trying to haggle you to buy the most expensive piece and to be treated as family, this is the place to go.

Review №62

When we were looking to purchase our wedding bands we decided the best place to go would be the diamond district. Both my husband and I have knowledge in diamond jewelry and wanted to find a place that complimented and increased our knowledge. After several trips to the area and entering multiple stores we knew immediately that we wanted to work with Jane from Ultimate Diamond. Jane was VERY helpful and understanding and made sure that all of our needs AND wants were met. She worked with us to pick out the highest quality diamonds in the design we wanted. We bought a semi-eternity diamond band for myself and a wedding band for my husband. One year later and I continue to receive compliments on the design and how wonderful the diamonds are in the ring. Thank you Jane for being so great and now we know where to go for ALL of our jewelry (diamond) needs!

Look no further! Ultimate Diamond is hands down the best jeweler around. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable staff! Clean atmosphere with an array of both settings and diamonds to choose from. My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Gem. He was amazing! We had our four children in attendance, not only did we not feel rushed but they actually helped cater to the children while we browsed around. We ended up going with a custom ring. Where they added prongs to an existing band! We just picked up the final product two days ago and they exceeded my expectations! I knew it was going to look beautiful, but when we saw the rings we were blown away! They are the first jewelry store we stopped at in the district but due to their knowledge and the quality of their items, it wouldnt of been logical to walk away. Im so grateful to have found this jewelry store! Ultimate Diamond you now have loyal customers with us, we will use you guys on all future purchases. Thank you for the great experience and the beautiful jewelry! We will be referring you to all our family and friends!

My fiance and I have become quite familiar with Ultimate Diamond over the past few month leading up to our wedding. Abe and Jane helped us designed a beautiful custom engagement ring setting on which I havent stopped getting compliments since. Weve recently purchased our wedding bands, which true to my form, I couldnt find a band that I liked 100% and Jane again helped me come up with a custom design that Im incredibly excited about (it took a few visits but Jane and Abe were so patient that we finally got there). They are also helping me making a pair of custom pearl earrings that Im thinking about wearing with my wedding gown. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful and understanding that jewelry is a big decision for their customers, and they really want you to own a piece that you truly love and are excited to own for the rest of your life.

Abe at Ultimate Jewelry was incredibly patient an very helpful throughout the process of picking out my engagement ring. He showed me many options and wasnt a sale-sy type pusher of diamonds. He cared about what I wanted and didnt try to deviate from what I wanted to make a sale. He showed me amazing options and never pressured me. I will absolutely recommend this place to everyone for all occasions. They have a great staff and great selection. The craftsmanship of the ring was impeccable.

Review №72

I came to this shop based on the other reviews and I was not disappointed. I was shopping around for an engagement ring and this was one of my last stops (as I planned) in the diamond district. The others shops were either pushy or not helpful. However, it was a different experience once I stepped into Ultimate Diamond. Gem gave me excellent service and took his time explaining and showing me the many selections I could choose from. He asked me questions and that led him to show me the ring that I already had in mind, as I had done my research before shopping.The craftsmanship of the ring was excellent and it came out better than I ever imagined. I recommend this shop to everyone and I appreciate the help from Gem and the staff.I got an appraisal on the ring and the appraiser could not believe the deal I received on the ring. Thank you Gem!

I walked into Ultimate Diamonds having absolutely no knowledge of jewelry or diamonds. Abe was the man who helped through the entire process teaching me what every single specification of a type of diamond was, and what exactly it is that I am paying for.What I love most about the experience with Abe is that he took his time to find the perfect diamond for ME and not what was the perfect sell for HIM.In the end I purchased one the most beautiful pieces of jewelry Ive ever seen and would absolutely recommend this dealer for everyone who is in the market, for a professional and courteous dealer, with top of the line diamonds.

I came to Ultimate Jewelry Designs for help with a pair of earrings -- the clasp on one of the earrings was not closing correctly and I was not sure how to fix it (earrings were purchased somewhere else). Everyone at Ultimate Jewelry was very attentive and LC evaluated the issue and fixed it on the spot for no charge. It was so refreshing to work with honest people who are happy to do the right thing. I will definitely be back for all of my jewelry needs. Great place with a really good vibe!

When picking out a diamond I didn’t have much knowledge at all. Billy was able to educate me and help me pick out a great diamond for my fiancé. When it came to picking out a setting for the diamond, I knew the very specific type I was looking for, an Irish Celtic knot. I was able to give Billy pictures off of Pintrest and he was able to custom make a Celtic Knot solitaire setting that was a perfect fit for the diamond. I highly recommend Ultimate Diamond for their excellent customer service, great prices, and helping pick out the perfect engagement ring.

Abe was absolutely amazing with us!! We came across the store randomly, but within the first five minutes we felt at ease and that we were dealing with a trustworthy individual. Abe heard my desires and found the perfect stone that matched exactly what I was looking for. The person that appraised it couldn’t believe the deal I received and couldn’t stop complimenting it. Not to add the compliments I receive about how much my ring sparkles. I will definitely be a customer for life and already recommending it to all my friends! Thank you Abe for a perfect ring!Christeen and Tom

We walked by the store at closing on a Friday night, and their engagement rings in the window caught our eye. My soon-to-be-fiance and I decided to go in and check some out, and we had the BEST experience with Gem. We walked out without planning on purchasing anything, got halfway down the block and returned to the store. Gem was wonderful, he spent his time with us (well after they were closed) and helped us get exactly what we were looking for for an incredible price! Their diamonds are fantastic, and their prices are even better than what we priced at James Allen for a comparable diamond. Needless to say, we made our purchase this evening and can’t wait to have the ring in hand! We will be recommending them to all of our friends.

Setting out on the diamond district can be very daunting after a disappointing first appointment, we entered ultimate my fiancé had been in contact with Brian over email he even emailed him that morning to say he wouldn’t be in work but we’d be looked after (so professional) that’s when we met Abe and Gem within seconds I was at ease Abe then looked after us I honestly can’t say enough how humble he was and how he genuinely wanted us to have the ring we wanted nothing was too much hassle working within our budget with absolutely no pressure but still ensuring we got the best diamond possible. They even had the ring ready for the next day so we’d have it for the rest of our trip we had the pleasure of meeting Brian that day and the ring did not disappoint amazing we’ve had so many compliments since we returned home and it hasn’t stopped sparkling. I could write an essay of praise for this business, every member of staff were so professional and so so nice cannot thank ultimate enough. Will definitely return for our wedding bands.

Ultimate Diamond is fabulous! Super friendly and efficient staff, great experience overall.Ill be honest, Im not one to write many review online, but these guys were so great that they really deserve to be praised. When my fiance and I first started shopping for a ring I had literally no idea what I wanted, or where to get it. Eventually I found two rings that I loved, one from Cartier and another from Graff, but we wanted to replicate a combination of these rings in yellow gold (and without the price that comes along with the brand name). My fiance resorted to the internet and almost purchased a ring online, and were both so happy he didnt. It makes all the difference to see rings in person, and to work with someone directly.So to find the perfect ring, I joined my fiance in the diamond district. We must have checked out at least 10 shops that day until we stumbled into Ultimate. Some of the other shop owners were horrible with us, saying come back to us when you know what you want. These guys werent like that at all. Why did we end up moving forward with Ultimate? Not only did we like their rings, but we had a good feeling about the place. The employees were so nice to us, and patiently put up with me trying on every combination of rings possible. It was the only shop that let me try on a mix of platinum and gold, engagement rings and wedding bands, etc. I was sold.My fiance designed my engagement ring entirely with Choi, and from what he told me it was a great experience from start to finish. She paid attention to every little detail that he wanted. Best of all, my ring turned out perfect (and I believe nothing is perfect)! I recommend Ultimate 100 percent :) We got our wedding bands here as well, and whenever I go back Abe is welcoming and happy to clean my ring for me or make any adjustments. Theyre wonderful!

My now Fiancé and I worked with Jane at Ultimate Diamonds to design my engagement ring. Jane had me try on multiple rings in different styles and carats to narrow down my preferences / wants. Once we narrowed the search down to a Pear shaped stone Jane ordered 5-6 stones meeting all our requirements in our desired budget ranges for us to choose from. Jane was completely knowlegdeable and thorough throughout the entire process - We were never rushed or pressured to purchase. We couldn’t say enough great things about Jane and Ultimate Diamond!

Ultimate Diamond Co. should be every mans one and only stop when it comes to finding the perfect engagement ring. As soon as you walk in the door, you are met by friendly employees, who are all exceptionally knowledgeable in their craft. I worked with Choi and she made my entire experience a truly memorable one. Walking into a jewelry store can be overwhelming to a lot of guys - but Choi and the entire staff at Ultimate made my entire process as easy as possible. With Chois help, I was able to design the perfect ring. I will definitely be working with Ultimate for my future jewellery needs. I cannot thank Choi and the entire staff enough for the time, preparation and attention to detail they exhibited when working with me. I never felt rushed or pressured, which is certainly not the case at a lot of other jewelry stores. Ultimate has made me a customer for life. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you!

I came here to buy an engagement ring. Choi was the one to help me and she was very informative and worked with my budget. I am an extremely picky customer and kept asking her to show me different style rings. She was patient and helpful the entire time. She gave me a great deal and I ended saving money instead of going over my budget. I was under my budget and I ended up with the ring of my dreams. Additionally, she was able to do a beautiful engraving and did a free appraisal so that I was able to insure my ring. Overall, I had a great experience in Ultimate Diamond and will be back to purchase a wedding band.Thank you so much Choi,Lauren and Omar ❤️

I’d like to start this off by saying that my fiance’s ring is absolutely absolutely absolutely stunning. Gem Sezgin and his coworkers at Ultimate Jewelry are fantastic at explaining, leveling with you, and are very upfront and honest about what you’re looking for, and what can be done. They are also very true to life wholesalers. A few tips to finding the perfect engagement ring and using Ultimate correctly:DO: Shop Around (you will see through process of Elimination, that Ultimate is by far the best pricing, and customer service.DO: Know what you want. Cut, Color, clarity, GIA certified, type of setting (with accessories) Everything here is custom built to order. Learn from the other stalls and stores what you like. Blue Nile is beyond helpful.DO: Go to Tiffany’s and the other overpriced on 5th and Madison, Play around, drink the Champagne and get pampered. See what she likes, bring it to Gem and his people. Bring pictures!!!!DO: Ask friends for their recommendations. Use them as a reference, then talk to Ultimate.DO NOT: Follow the guys off the streets into their stores.DO NOT: Be pressured into high pressure sales. Or be told what “can be done.” If it’s possible, Ultimate will. Counterfeit/Chemically altered stones do exist in NYC Diamond District. Beware of extreme price haggling.DO NOT: Buy anything that’s in a glass case, if you like it, get a spec sheet, bring it to Ulitmate.DO: Celebrate what Ulitmate can do, and expect a loose expectation on turn around time. Customer built to order is built in a few weeks, not a few days, but will blow you away, be excited, but patient.DO: Happy wife is a happy life…… HealthyREAD ALL YELP REVIEWS FROM PLACES and JEWELERS SHOPPED, INCLUDING ULTIMATE, YOU’LL SEE!!!!!!

Just went in with my partner to have our fingers sized for wedding rings. LC helped us out gladly even when we were up front about our limited intention of buying anything. After a very thorough explanation of how sizes vary depending on the width of the ring youre looking at, we ended up spending a long time looking at their rings - there is a good chance we will be back, the quality of their work is high and the attitude of the staff is just right - I would trust this business to make something for us and to have excellent communication and honesty about every detail. She mentioned she has creative ways to get rings made even on a limited budget.

Ms. Choi of Ultimate Diamond gave my future husband and I the most memorable and enjoyable experience. Ms. Choi was personable, paid attention to every detail, and guided us through each step. My engagement ring that Ms. Choi helped my fiance design is stunning! The wedding band she helped me design for him is remarkable. Needless to say her work ethic has forged a long time business relationship as we will see Ms. Choi of Ultimate Diamomd 47th St. for all our jewelry needs and refer our friends to her as well.
