Bought my wife’s wedding ring set, and my wedding band at the Diamond Source in Old Town.
Marco and his daughter were awesome. The diamonds really sparkle and was a higher quality than all of the store we visited. Me and my wife gives them 2 thumbs up.

A loyal customer forever.

I absolutely adore my ring. It is so breathtaking. I couldn’t be happier with it and everyone at Diamond Source has been welcoming and knowledgeable.

My husband bought my engagement ring and wedding band here 10 years ago. We keep coming back here for our jewelry needs because their service and jewelry are phenomenal. I came here because the back of my engagement ring cracked and I wanted it repaired. When I came to pick up the ring, I was so impressed. It looked brand new, shiny and beautiful just like on the day my husband proposed to me. Last but not least, they didn’t charge me for the repair. They told me it was a Mother’s Day gift. I love Diamond Source and will continue to come here!

My husband bought my engagement ring and wedding band from the Diamond Source. It has always been stunning and loved it! I never even liked to take it off. Well, over the years my finger must have grown and I couldn’t get my rings off.
I went into the Diamond Source and David was able to cut them off without damaging the diamonds in my eternity band. I decided to upgrade my wedding band and Marco turned my old wedding band into gorgeous ear rings.
Do yourself a favor, just go to the Diamond Source. The quality, professionalism, choice will make any wife or future wife know you cared enough to go to the best jeweler in San Diego.

Love The Diamond Source — Marco, Franny, & David! High quality and superb service. Have been coming here for years and will continue to come as long as my husband’s wallet allows me to! Thank you honey for my newest bauble! LOVE IT!

Diamond Source is the BEST! We stumbled across this place 20 years ago when we were in the market to buy our wedding rings and now it’s the only place we trust. We drive from Temecula to get our rings cleaned and checked. The entire staff is so friendly and definitely not pushy. They will help you pick the right setting and stones that work best for you. Definitely worth a trip! You won’t be disappointed!

My husband has surprised me with many pieces of fine jewelry made special at The Diamond Source. We have been back many times over the past three years and this last visit while getting my diamond bracelet checked we put together a gorgeous piece with the help of the owner. I sooooo love it. A pendant with a band of diamonds with now a jewel of my birth stone centered inside. Wow it is amazing when you walk in there, describe what you are wanting and it comes out better than you can imagine. Wish I could post a picture. Thank you Diamond Source for making me sparkle. See you super soon!

I’m a girl who knows what she wants. So when I had the slightest idea my fiancé was going to propose, I took him shopping for me… my favorite kind.
We sifted through multiple jewelry stores from boutique shops to commercial businesses. No one treated us as well as they did at the DIamond Source.
When I saw my now engagement ring in the case, my heart dropped. I told my fiancé which one it was and he and the Diamond Source took care of the rest.
After my husband proposed, I found that they held the ring until the last second so I wouldn’t find it in our house. They assisted him in planning the proposal and I was 100% surprised.
I love that I can go get my ring cleaned and the prawns checked (just for piece of mind because their craftsmanship is amazing) whenever my heart desires.
Thank you for making my dreams come true Diamond Source.

Marco is the man! He made my custom engagement ring, and we were so happy with the result that we came back for our wedding bands. Highly recommend!

My fiancé proposed on Christmas Eve a few months ago and my ring couldn’t be more perfect! He was referred to the diamond source by a long time client of his that has been coming here for jewelry as long as she can remember (she is 80+ years old). He showed them a picture of what I wanted (that my best friend apparently shared with him) and they created it exactly! The setting is perfect. rose gold, delicate and classy. They weren’t pushy at all and my fiancé came out spending exactly what he planned for his budget and I got a beautiful ring! Fannie was super sweet and helpful to him :) I have since gonna back for sizing and cleaning and love that I can do that anytime. Thank you!

This is a great place to do business. I did not buy my wife’s wedding ring here and I wish I did. I only bought the stone here.
This review is 6 years in the making. I was married in Jan of 2010. My wife and I live overseas and come back to the states a couple of times a year. Everytime we are back we bring the ring in to check the setting and get a professional cleaning. Everytime we come we are treated like family.
The first year we tried to get our ring cleaned we went to the place where we bought the ring (Major Chain store). What a nightmare (review posted on their site). I won’t go into details here, but I’ll say that I really appreciate the after sales service from The Diamond Source. So much so that I feel compelled to write this review a whole 6 years after making my purchase.

If you are in the market for fine jewelry, there is no other place to go. Marco, David and Franny are amazing! Their customer service is top notch. We bought all of our wedding rings from them and cannot be happier.
We won’t be going anywhere else for fine jewelry after our wonderful experience!

Back again for a new ring! so happy with the quality and the sparkle – exquisite… a round brilliant cut, Tiffany (6 prong) setting. High End and is comparable to Tiffany and Co., but not as pricey, so more diamond for the $$. David was awesome – always happy to see him again. Fanny also very personable.

The Diamond Source is by far the best place that I have found to find the highest quality diamonds in San Diego. Marco, Fanny and David are all extremely helpful, dedicated and wonderful to work with and are not satisfied until I’ve been satisfied. In addition, they are so knowledgeable and willing to take the time to educate me.
I’ve bought several diamonds from them over the years and have been completely amazed at the quality and brilliance of their stones. The staff is always willing to work with me, and I’m quite picky (just ask Marco!).
I would not go anywhere else. I’m so glad I found these people. You can really trust them, and that’s the highest compliment I know of.

Bough my 10 yr wedding anniversary from from the Diamond Source and I get so many compliments on it!!! The diamonds are top grade and all their rocks are just high quality! I love my ring and can’t wait to add more jewelry pieces to my collection! Love and would recommend the diamond source, great quality stones!

My husband and I purchased our wedding rings here 5 years ago from a very nice selection of beautiful pieces on display! I’ve been taking my ring in be serviced and inspected twice a year ever since then. The staff is very courteous and tentative and David even waived my latest jewelry repair fee with the purchase of new earrings.
I need to stop browsing in the display cases during my visits though — dangerous to my pocketbook! :)

I love the diamond source. I had my wedding rings and my engagement ring designed and made there and also a very special ring made there that the stone belonged to my late grandmother. I go in with an idea and they always make it come to life better than I have ever imagined. They are all gorgeous and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for any of my jewelry.

I have visited prob 10 diamond stores in SD, and none have Marco’s selection of choice diamonds, value, level of service. He is honest, warm, and will be your jeweler for life once you work with him.
Carmen and David are experts in their craft as well. I have purchased several pieces from DS and have yet to find a better price, even on web.

Unfortunately one of my stones became loose and fell out of my engagement ring. The diamond source was quick to replace it at no charge as well as do a check on my wedding band. In 15 minutes!!!
