The 5Cs of Diamonds

Diamonds are one of the earth’s most precious creations and are used as symbols of love, commitment, and triumph. In the middle of the twentieth century, GIA developed the first classification system for describing diamonds, which is now adopted worldwide.
Diamond Specialist, Debbie McKernan, invites you on a journey through the fascinating world of gemstones as she discusses the 5Cs of diamonds.

Two years ago Laings in Southampton sold me two Rolexes to the value of £40k. I also introduced them to a high profile TV celebrity who they did business with.

Since then the communication and love has been non existent. They seem to sell these watches to people who want to profiteer rather than genuine customers. 

Their manner is very cold and stuck up at best, and they have no interest in creating a meaningful relationship.

I still have both my watches, yet have been accused of selling them ! Rather than act like nice human beings after spending £40k with them, they send a vile email to me !

There’s no doubt this AD is confused. Andrew the Manager is never there and refuses to take calls as he’s too busy running his Keep Fit Business and Miriam only sells watches to favoured customers no doubt influencing the decisions. 

As Southampton is a small place I’ve lost count of the number of watches I’ve been offered by their customers trying to make fast profits.

Hilarious as Miriam makes you sign a contract saying you can’t sell the watch although this is mean(Nile’s but it makes her feel important for five minutes !

I invited them to come to my home and view my watch collection, but alas they are not interested.

Sad, poorly educated Shop Assistants who are all employees not owners, trying to play god, possibly with ideas of power being influenced by gift vouchers and incentives to supply watches to the wrong customers in my opinion.
