Continental Diamond
Maintaining the health and safety of our Continental Diamond family is our top priority. In addition to following social distancing guidelines, we are requiring everyone to wear masks upon entry to the store; we have sanitizer, masks and sinks readily available. Two years after giving this ring to my wife and it still sparkles and shines perfectly.

Jewelers consistently make comments about the perfection of the diamond when we take it to get cleaned. I worked with Jane and she was. Words cannot describe how incredible the ring buying experience was at continental diamond. Kim helped me pick out the perfect engagement ring for my fianc and Ashley assisted in designing my fianc's dream wedding band.
Services
Our large selection of jewelry, watches, and giftware is coupled with the ultimate in knowledge, fashion and technology. We welcome you to visit us in our Minneapolis store and look forward to helping you with all of your jewelry needs. Beyond the experience and team at Continental Diamond, you'll find an incredible selection of diamonds, engagement rings, jewelry, watches, and gifts.
Diamond is not just in our name, it is the source of our reputation and our brand. In 1981, Jimmy started Continental Diamond with only a few diamonds. He selected only the finest for his customers; who, as with most new businesses, were mostly his family and close friends! To this day Jimmy has continued this routine of selecting and purchasing only the finest diamonds that are perfect for our customers, family and friends.
Do you have gold, platinum, diamonds, jewelry, sterling silver flatware or watches that you would like to sell? At Continental Diamond we purchase a wide range of jewelry styles and materials-both vintage and contemporary. Bring in the item(s) you are interested in selling anytime during our open hours.
Buying a diamond is a very personal experience. Diamonds can be bought to signify love, significant accomplishments, milestones in your life or that of a gift's recipient. Unlike when you buy clothing, electronics, or cars, the features of a diamond may not seem quite so obvious to you. We would like to change that.
Buying a gemstone is often a very different experience than buying a diamond. Gemstones are bought based on favorite colors, wardrobe matches, personality, and fashion trends. While gemstones are judged using the 4Cs, just as diamonds are, each is judged separately. For example, a sapphire is compared to another sapphire, but wouldn't be compared to an emerald or aquamarine.

My husband bought my original wedding ring from Continental Diamond 15 years ago, and Jeff and all the folks there helped me to reset my diamond into a new setting and band. They pushed the custom order through and made it all happen before Christmas! There is no other jeweler I would go to! Hands down, Continental is the best quality and service around!

I worked with Andy to acquire a new Breitling watch. Andy responded to my online request within five minutes and provided me with answers to the questions I had. Not only was he very insightful, he also was very good at making conversation (something very important to me when purchasing a large ticket item).
I plan to refer business to Andy and will also have my watches serviced by the team at Continental Diamond.

Continental Diamond was my fourth stop while hunting for the perfect engagement ring, and my only regret is that it wasn't my first. Every staff member was genuinely excited to assist with the search and presented such a stress free experience that they've made a customer for life out of me.
Jeff took his time, listened carefully, and delivered something that exceeded all my expectations without making me feel like I was being led towards cutting corners or spending more for something I didn't want or need. They even did the resize turn around amazingly fast - same day.
We're excited to go back

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Henni at Continental Diamond. So much time and patience was taken with us as we chose pieces for our four sons and me. We are forever grateful to Jimmy and his staff for their outstanding service!

I strongly recommend getting help from Laurel. She helped my fiancé and I look at rings, and would go above and beyond to make sure we got to see diamonds that fit our criteria. She would even contact us during her time off, and would come in to the store if she wasn’t working. She made the entire process feel very easy and personable!

Continental Diamond is the absolute best! Jimmy has wonderful employees and recently had Ann help me out with a special gift! Wether you are looking for help and or have an idea in mind - they will bring your idea to life! I got both my engagement ring and now a specially designed necklace for my wife to celebration our first born. They really take the time to listen to their customers to ensure they and the person they are shopping for are 100% satisfied!

While traveling in the Caribbean, I had purchased a Phillips Stein watch which has 2 faces, and runs on 2 copper batteries. When I noticed the batteries needed replacement, I called several jewelers to ask if they carried the batteries. I had noticed Continental Diamond had rave reviews every where I looked, so I called them.
My call was forwarded to Jim Goldfarb who specializes in watch repair. It was my lucky day! I have been taking my watch repair to Jim since 2006! He is wonderful to work with. If there a part needed He always calls to explain and advise if there will be a delay or change

Stopped in to get a vintage Omega strap sized. What seemed to be a simple task wasn’t due to an old tube that was stuck. Jim didn’t give up and was able to solve the issue and size the watch for me. Great service and awesome store. Will definitely be back!

Lots of love floating around Continental Diamond, and it begins with Jimmy and Helaine. Staff is amazing. I am so in love with my new diamond each and everyday -- first I am reminded about my beloved husband; and then Continental Diamond!

I have been a customer with Continental Diamond for over five years now, and they have been fantastic every step of the way. I have shopped for all types of jewelry with them, everything from basic (men's wedding band) all the way up to custom designed (new wedding set for my wife) and they have been easy to work with on both. I also love the… wide selection of watches!
I have had the pleasure of working with both Andy and Ashly-Nicole on the sales side and can recommend both with the highest confidence. In addition, their service team is second to none! One of the best jewelers in the business

Mark Arnold was so patient and tending to my needs. I was looking for a pear diamond engagement ring and he could not have put a more beautiful ring together with my unique requests. I cried when I saw it in… the store and SHE SAID YES and absolutely loved it. I highly recommend Mark Arnold at Continental Diamond and will continue to point people in his direction! Thank you, Mark!
