Reviews of Mark Diamond's Jewelers
Andrea Miller
Mark Diamonds is amazing! They fixed my wedding and engagement rings that were badly damaged by another jeweler. Joe in particular is SUCH a nice, truly genuine guy! He also got my rings back to me before my honeymoon (which is amazing, considering how damaged they were). He was punctual, respectful, and fun! Forever grateful for you Joe! And aloha on our way to Maui with drinks on Joe! 🥰

My fiancé and I brought my platinum engagement set to MDJ for sizing. I was nervous to say the least. I am completely blown away with the amazing customer service and the quality of work that was done. They took my rings from a size 7 to a 5.5, let me tell you, my rings are flawless. Not to mention, both rings were sized within 4 days. I will definitely be a lifelong customer. My only regret is not finding Mark Diamond's Jewelers sooner.

Everyone at Mark Diamond's Jewelers is exceptional. We have work with everyone on the team and each person is so kind and helpful. Everyone goes above and beyond in their care for us and our jewelry. It makes us happy and puts our anxiety at ease having a team that knows us by name every time we walk in the door and we know we can trust them with our loved jewelry. When we first got engaged, my ring was too big and I was going out of town to visit family but wanted to wear it and Joe made sure to have it adjusted so we could share our exciting news. I have had to leave my ring due to my stones being loose and although I never like leaving my ring I know it is in good hands and have never been disappointed. In my profession, it can be harsh on my ring and everyone is always happy to inspect and clean my ring to make sure everything is looking well. We couldn't have chosen a better team to work with and we highly recommend them!

If you’re considering buying jewelry (especially, as I was, considering an engagement ring), stop looking and just go to Mark Diamond’s. A good friend recommended them to me, and after my first consultation I knew that I didn’t have to go anywhere else. They are experts, professional, and willing to go thousands of extra miles to make the whole experience special.
I set up a consultation with Joe because I was hoping to design a custom engagement ring for my (now!) Fiancée. I was in way over my head, but had a general idea for what I thought could make for a special ring. I was astonished by how knowledgeable Joe was about everything, and how genuinely helpful he was. He wasn’t pushy and didn’t need to be—when you’re that good at what you do, it’s self-evident.
After my consultation, we started exchanging emails and I became even more impressed by Joe. I sent him some photos of ring designs I liked, talked about some details about my Fiancée, where she works, what she loves, etc., and Joe began sending me CAD renders of ring designs he came up with that incorporated elements from all of our discussions. We continued to iterate for weeks and months on the design, until finally we had a design that I just knew my Fiancée would adore. All along, Joe was invested and was truly a member of the team—he was invested and excited, and it more than showed in the final design.
I do feel a little guilty—I ended up challenging Joe with the timeline. But he was unflappable—a true miracle worker. Against all odds, he made sure that I was able to take the ring on the flight home with me for the Holidays. And it all came in at a budget we agreed on.
When I picked up the ring, I was speechless and knew immediately that it was perfect. In the end, I couldn’t even hold on to the ring for more than 12 hours—when you have the perfect ring and the perfect person, why wait? And she said yes!
As far as I’m concerned, I don’t see the need to go to any other jewelers… Ever. I’m so grateful for Joe and everyone at Mark Diamond’s, and I hope that I can keep working with them for years to come.
If you go to their shop, you’ll immediately see all of their beautiful jewelry. But just know that behind each one of their pieces is an incredible amount of thought, expertise, and care. They’re masters of their art, and they love to do it. For me, that makes all of the difference in the world.

This is hands down (pun intended...) the BEST place to go for your engagement ring. My now fiancée and I knew from the moment Ellen Diamond answered the phone that this experience would be special. This ring is the first piece of fine jewelry I've owned, and I had a lot of questions. Ellen was welcoming of all of our questions and walked us through the process of custom designing a beautiful ruby ring. She was straightforward and honest about what would work and wouldn't work. The result is stunning! Ellen has a magical eye. I cannot imagine trusting any other company with such an important purchase. - Kimberly and Reggie

I was referred to Joe at Marks Diamond by a friend. After a quick call he made time to speak to me in person about a custom piece. I’ve envisioned a tribute necklace to my children for years now. He was able to create it from my vision and I couldn’t be happier. Joe was kind and professional during the entire process. This photo does not do it justice. I already have another project in the works. Thank you Joe!
Lea Vinikas
I have never been to a better jewelry store. The entire staff is helpful, knowledgeable and kind, especially Sandra. She's been working with me on a custom project and has made the process so easy! I am so pleased with how my custom ring turned out. I can't recommend Mark Diamond's Jewelers enough.
We also had a few rings that needed repair and their jeweler is a wizard. They fixed issues that I thought couldn't be fixed. Honestly, they saved my husband's wedding ring.
Their prices are fair and the work is impeccable. You won't be disappointed if you shop here.

My wife and I have used Mark Diamonds since before we were married. Joe helped us to design our very special wedding rings. They came out Fabulous! We are still using Mark Diamonds for all our special needs. Joe is fantastic and Ellen and Michelle always make our purchase experiences awesome. They are great people to work with. Not only business. We are proud to call them our friends.

Truly excellent! I got married recently and I was searching for a jeweler to add a setting and a stone to an heirloom piece (Grandmother's wedding band). I can't sing their praises enough. I mostly worked with Ellen Diamond, but everyone in the shop was courteous and helpful every time I visited. I was so devastated because only a month after I received my beautiful custom ring, I got in a bike accident which resulted in losing the stone and the setting being ruined. Ellen was so great and was willing to work with me to get my precious piece repaired; she even did it at a discount! It took no longer than a week and a half and my ring was back on my finger in beautiful shape. 10/10 would recommend. (First set of pictures is initial custom work, second set is post-accident repairs) Flawless work
Caleb Chavez
Bought my engagement ring, wedding rings, and various other pieces over the years. Staff is incredibly knowledgeable and makes you feel like family, especially Joe. Recently had to file a claim for jewelry insurance and Joe made the process extremely stress free and easy! Will continue to shop there for all my custom or everyday jewelry needs! Every time I go I see something new that blows my mind.

When I was shopping for an engagement ring I went to 3 different shops. Mark Diamond's was definitely the most professional, well kept, and friendliest employees. I was promptly greeted by Emilio Medina with a handshake and a smile. His expertise in diamonds and jewelry was apparent and he earned a customer for life. Joe Mares also assisted us on several occasions and always went above and beyond. I would recommend Mark Diamond's for all of your jewelery needs.
Tyler Shackelford
I would like to thank Joe and the rest of the Mark Diamonds team for helping me through every step of our custom engagement ring and wedding band purchase. Their prices were competitive with the big box retailers, they had great communication, and they beat all their time estimates. Needless to say, she loves her rings....thanks again!
Stacy Fugate
Michelle, Joe, Ellen, and the rest of the team at Mark Diamond Jewelers are fantastic. Very engaging and knowledgeable about finding the right item to fit the occasion. They all go above and beyond to make you feel welcome the moment you walk in the door. Our family has shopped with them for 20+ years and always the same level of exemplary service.
Matthew Solka
I had the best experience with Ellen and Joe from Mark Diamond Jewelers. I've never purchased a diamond ring before and they made the whole process incredibly simple and easy, especially purchasing it from a state away from NM. From determining what I wanted to buy, to hearing what diamond and setting options were available, and even the shipping and receiving the ring, the Mark Diamond team were in constant contact with me 100% of the way.
Joanne Schiabor
I needed to have my ruby and diamond bracelet’s latch repaired. I brought it over to Mark Diamonds Jewelers. Sandra took care to check the entire bracket to make sure there were no other loose areas of the bracelet. They estimated the repair a couple of days before Christmas however they were able to do the repair in less time and at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend them for repairs or new jewelry purchases. Very friendly and courteous staff.
Sean Greathead
Hands down best jeweler in the state of New Mexico! I had a super tight deadline for an engagement ring but Joe and the team made it happen and the ring came out perfect. 10/10 would recommend to anybody.
Danny Collier
Joe made the ring buying process extremely easy and stress free. I appreciated his hard work during the busy holiday season. Communication was top notch and kept me in the loop throughout the whole process. Thanks Joe
Shane Galloway
Fantastic experience at Mark Diamond's! Michelle helped us find the perfect ring in our price range! Even during the busy holiday week, they had it resized in days!
Annie Casias
We worked with Joe Mares at Mark Diamonds for 2 custom ring sets and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! More beautiful than we imagined. Joe is caring and genuine. Our kids love to visit the store so they can say Hulu to Joe! Thank you for all you do!!
Frank Narvaez
Mark Diamond's Jewelers did an absolutely beautifully job enlarging my gold wedding ring. Their sales staff were wonderful to work with. Strongly recommend visiting Mark Dianmond's Jewelers for your jewelry needs!
John Sullivan
Michelle was simply amazing! Bought a pair of diamond earrings for my wife and they were awesome! The customer service and follow up was best I’ve seen.
Alisha Barela (2pugmami)
BEST PLACE FOR DIAMONDS & QUALITY SERVICE IN ALBUQUERQUE! My now husband customized my engagement ring as well as my wedding band here & they are absolutely stunning! I purchased his wedding band here as well. Joe & Christina are awesome! They really took their time each and every time we went in to make sure every detail was perfect. The overall staff here is so welcoming and friendly every time I go in to have my ring cleaned. It feels more like a family than any other jewelry shop and unlike any other place in Albuquerque. Highly recommend!
Ivan Barela
Mark Diamonds is the only place to go if you are looking for something different. I spent hours online and visiting other traditional jewelry shops for the right ring to propose but couldn't find what I was looking for. Joe and Christina helped me and together we were able to customize the ring I wanted for my Fiance at the time. She said yes and now we are officially married. I won't go to any other jeweler from now on and I highly recommend them. They truly made me feel at home every time I would visit. The entire staff is kind and helpful.
Nathan Strong
It’s plain and simple. Joe the jeweler is the best there is. He’s untouchable. He’s the Micheal Jordan of jewelry. He’s the babe Ruth of diamonds. He’s similar to Micheal Phelps, the best to ever go gold. He’s all I could ask for in a friend.
Adam Farnsworth
I worked with Michelle at Mark Diamond's and had an AMAZING experience. I bought some items for my wife and she was in awe! I walked in without any idea of what to get and received the most fantastic customer service. This will be my GOTO for years to come! Thank you Michelle!
Alina Barnhouse
Everyone at Mark Diamond was absolutely wonderful to us. Sandra helped my fiancé and I out to buy both our engagement ring and our wedding bands which both turned out better than I could have imagined. Sandra was always very helpful and kept us updated on our orders. Joe was fantastic too and worked very well with me to find the exact design I was looking for on my wedding band. I highly recommend this store. They are extremely professional. They made the entire process seamless and took great care of us.
Mandy Waldo
These wonderful people created my engagement ring and wedding bands and did an excellent job! We had a bit of a stone issue on the bands but they fixed it without any hesitation and were so nice and helpful throughout the process. We live in Dallas but my in laws live in Albuquerque and they worked with all of us to pull off a dream wedding set for me. I highly recommend them and their adorable customer greeter, Cooper the Aussie.
Victoria P
Found Mark Diamond’s Jewelers via a certified watch repair search on Google. Brought in 2 of my watches and voila! Repaired within a few days. I interacted with 3 different associates. 2 in person and 1 on the phone and every person I spoke with was very friendly and accommodating. There wasn’t any pretentious attitudes. Felt comfortable here and very happy with the repairs! Highly recommend!
Mark Spaulding
Took 2 watches for new batteries and 1 watch to be sized. They were able to size the watch immediately and the batteries only took a day. What a friendly professional staff. My new go to place for jewelry and watch repair. Very reasonable.
Emily Peter
The whole crew at Mark Diamond's is absolutely amazing, but Joe is the best!! The custom experience was flawless from start to finish and the end product was more than we could have ever imagined. Joe was so attentive to every detail. My better half is a superstitious baseball player, who loves even numbers. From the number of diamonds, down to the penny on the price, Joe made sure to incorporate only even numbers. He was genuine and understanding through the whole process, a friend who became family. We are so thankful and truly blessed to have worked with Joe. Local, knowledgeable and outstanding in their field, Mark Diamond's is batting 1000 when it comes to design and experience, I wouldn't trust my day or diamond to anyone else.
Shannon Pease
My fiancé went to Mark Diamond to design my engagement ring and they were fantastic! Emilio was friendly and personable and so helpful throughout the whole process. My ring is absolutely beautiful. I appreciate Emilio’s attention to detail and you can tell these guys know what they are doing. After my experience, I wouldn’t use anyone else for any of my future jewelry needs!
Jaonne Garcia
I absolutely love this place top notch. The service was beyond anything I even expected. My mama who is in a nursing home needed a battery for her watch. I found myself at Marks diamonds and had the best experience ever. They replaced the battery. My mom has dementia and Alzheimer’s and this watch means everything to her. I was running out of time to get it done but they help me immediately treated me like I was the only customer in the store they even offered to take the watch to her at the nursing home. So blessed and grateful. This is the place to go. Thank you you made my day and you made my best friends day .. my previous momma
Kevin Napp
Alexis and Joe are phenomenal!!! Great customer service while helping us choose our wedding rings. Even more, Mark’s set my great grandmother’s diamond in an engagement setting. They’re like family.
Emmanuel Encarnacion
I just don’t have words to describe how wonderful my experience with these people was, I was looking to buy a weeding ring and somebody at my work recommended this place and after looking for prices and options on internet I decided to go there, before I went there I called to make an appointment and spoke with Emilio, he said they were open and told me he would take care of me, I told my fiancé and we went there, our experience was fantastic, Emilio Amazing, super professional, well spoken and he had a lot of knowledge about diamonds which is what we were looking, at the moment we picked our stone they didn’t have the mount for the stone that my fiancé choose but Emilio went above and beyond and got it for us within days, Emilio is without a doubt the best sales persons I’ve made business with in my life, he was very patient, polite, precise, and willing to help us out, the sales process was great, they took care of us like if we were family, they went from giving us some delicious coffee to polishing my fiancé’s jewelry and we both loved that! We walked away with a wonderful masterpiece they custom built for my fiancé and I still can’t believe how happy she is with her ring, again, my English is not good enough to describe how amazing my experience with them was, I’ll be forever glad we got in such good hands at the moment of buying our weeding rings! Emilio, you’re the man, thank you so much for everything you did for us!
Sean Hebert
Mark Diamond's has the most amazing customer service and quality around. I knew I had my work cut out for me in picking the perfect engagement ring when I was going to propose. Joe was able to nail exactly what I described my fiance wanted in a ring. The attention to detail and the friendly service made me feel like I had nothing to worry about. When I finally proposed with the custom made ring, my fiance was blown away! Fast forward several months later and they were able to match the ring with the perfect wedding band. We highly recommend Mark Diamond's for all of your jewelry needs. I will always go back knowing I can count on them for beautiful work and friendly customer service. They make you feel like family.
Patricia Murphy
I brought a family heirloom ring in to see about resizing. Everyone from start to finish in all phases of interaction was friendly, welcoming and helpful. I immediately felt a sense of trust about leaving the ring with them. The pricing was reasonable and the work was done in a timely fashion. I am thrilled with the job they did and found the whole process fun! I highly recommend this beautiful locally owned shop.
Reese Gateley
Mark Diamond's Jewelers has INCREDIBLE customer service - Especially Heather!! My wife lost her favorite earrings. Heather was able to contact the vendor and replace them. She kept me informed regarding replacement.
Due to her extraordinary efforts, my wife was able to enjoy them on New Year's Eve! She and the organization are AMAZING!! Don't shop anywhere else!!
Madalaine C
Michelle and Sandra were EXCELLENT with assisting me in sizing my ring. I had initially had my engagement ring purchased and sized elsewhere and they had left tool marks in my ring and I was not happy with the sizing. These ladies assured me that my rings would be taken care of and I would not be able to tell they were sized.
Not only do they have high quality work, they have high quality customer service.
Every interaction has been kind and pleasant. I couldn’t be happier to have found Mark Diamonds!
If you need sizing done look how further!
Zeke Garcia
Joe Mares is the guy to go to if you ever need any sort of help with finding the perfect piece of jewelry. He helps with every step of the process from trying to understand what you’re thinking to getting everything custom built for you. Joe will forever be my go-to for all things jewelry. Thank you for all the help and everything you have done, sir, I really appreciate everything.
Carol Orlandini
Outstanding service. Michelle is and her staff are rock stars. I highly recommend Mark Diamond jewelers.
Andrea L
Working with Joe to create my fiancés custom wedding ring has been the most enjoyable experience. He is extremely responsive and kind man who truly listens to what you’re looking to do. He made my vision come to life! I am forever grateful!
Kip Schlagel
Amazing service. Joe was having a ring made for my wife that was not going to be quite complete by her birthday. When he learned of this, he made it happen and cme into work on his day off. I would not go anywhere else. Everyone is extremely competent and VERY friendly.
Rebecca Simons
Mark Diamonds created a ring using the diamonds from my grandmother’s and great grandmother’s rings. It is beautiful and they were able to design something that used all of the diamonds from both rings. This ring makes me feel closer to my grandmother’s who are no longer with me.
I was treated very well, and they helped me create a modern style, right-hand ring that I can wear everyday! I couldn’t be happier with this tribute to my grandmothers!
Tiffany Hogrefe
Mark Diamond’s Jewelers are incredible! The staff that work there are amazing! They went above and beyond for my husband and me! We first went there to get my engagement ring resized, and then later on bought both our wedding bands from them. They helped us design the most beautiful wedding band to fit perfectly with my engagement ring. They made the entire process so easy and so much fun! We highly recommend Mark Diamond’s for any of your jewelry needs!
Jose Aragon
I was greeted at the door by the proprietor, Ms Ellen Diamond and her grandpup Cooper! I was in a situation that looked a lot like procrastination to the untrained eye, but Ellen helped me find exactly the right gift with several hours to spare. As we got to know each other, it turned out her dear departed husband Mark and I had the same taste in cars, and her friend Marla happens to be my next door neighbor! Anyway, I got lucky this time by finding the perfect gift in stock, but Ellen told me with a bit of planning she can help me find larger, unique, and customized items for future gifting needs.
Blake Sissom
I primarily worked with Ellen Diamond and Joe Mares to pick an engagement ring, and both were phenomenal from start to finish. There was never any pressure like I had from other stores. They also ensured to meet every spec that I wanted with the diamond shape, size, color, cut, and clarity. I was referred by a friend, and would now recommend anyone that’s looking to buy any type of jewelry to try out Mark Diamond’s. You won’t be disappointed.
Evan Fuchs
I've had two pieces designed at Mark's and both have been excellent. They're service is superb and they always help me find the perfect look for a reasonable price. I know for a fact my wife loves their work!
Gavin Chavez
After having a bad experience at another jeweler with our ring, me and my fiance came to Marks Diamond's and the staff was incredibly helpful. They worked really hard to fix a mistake another jewelry store made. The ring Mark's Diamonds made for us was perfect and my fiance loved it. The staff is very professional and welcoming. They were never pushy and proposed different options for us. They even told us to think about what we want to do and to come back or call with what we wanted to do. I never write reviews but my experience at Mark's was outstanding. I highly recommend anyone who is looking for a ring or any jewelry to go to Mark's Diamonds!
Christopher Trujillo
My experience began when I went in looking for a very specific ring that I was having a hard time finding anywhere in the country. The courteous staff at Mark Diamond's offered to custom make the ring for me at a very reasonable price. Out of sheer luck, I was able to eventually find the ring I was seeking in California; however, due to the level of customer service I first experienced and my colleagues have experienced in the past, I returned to Mark Diamond's where they assisted me in selecting the perfect stone to accompany the engagement set I worked so hard to acquire. I genuinely had a great experience with this company and each of their staff (specifically Joe and Christina Mares) that I can understand why their repeat customers praise them so much.
Kevin Banks
Joe is always so helpful! He made me shine as bright as the diamond earrings that I got for my wife (for Christmas). If you want to shop/support local and receive excellent service along with great prices, go see Joe at Mark Diamond’s jewelry!
Michelle Mode
Just wanted to thank you Ellen for helping my husband John and I! My ring came out exactly how I wanted. Thanks for everything. I love it so very much. My husband also loves his new wedding band. So glad he got it. You and your staff were so helpful and nice. I can say with confidence we will be returning.
Mario Caetano
Joe was great! Very professional, great customer service! The product quality is top tier! First class all the way!
Diana Boyd
Joe takes the time to really listen to what you want. I did not feel any pressure. I am a return customer. I have had a ring custom designed with 3 generations of diamonds. I had an extra diamond and wanted a certain design. I was able to find the design, more or less, in the store. My diamond was able to be added to the purchased necklace and it was exactly what I wanted. Recently I have purchased 2 rings for everyday wear. I was unable to purchase them at the same time that they were on sale, but Joe worked with me, and again, I was able to get what I wanted. The sales staff really is genuine.
Lynn Velarde
I have never had to opportunity to buy any beautiful jewelry at Mark Diamond's Jewelers but have only had repairs done. I cannot say enough about the genuine service there. The fact that they do all repairs in house is trustworthy enough. It's an all around pleasant experience from the moment you walk in the door with a warm, friendly greeting to the time you walk out the door with them thanking you for your business. There are no hidden agendas, what they quote you and say they can do for you is EXACTLY what you can expect.
Janie Howard
We recently experienced Mark Diamond's for the first time, as we were replacing my husband's wedding band that had worn out. We were impressed with the service, customer satisfaction and warm experience. We were able to replace the band with one very similar. My husband of 52 years is very pleased with his new ring and hopes to have 52 more years with this ring! If you need a wonderful jeweler experience, try Mark Diamond's!
Sean W
I can't recommend this place enough. I worked with Joe through the process of getting an engagement ring purchased and he was extremely helpful through the entire process. When we came back to get the band, they worked with the ring maker to get us the best possible price, as well as getting it done with a quick turn around time so my fiancee could have her ring back before the holidays. Everyone at this store makes you feel comfortable and like your a part of the family. As far as I am concerned, this is the only jeweler I will ever work with. I would give more stars if I could.
Brandon Ghiassi
My wife created a custom 3 gemstone ring design, and had it crafted out of country. Upon arrival it was much too small for my finger. Because of the intricate design and engraving on the band, it seemed like making the ring bigger would ruin those designs. Took it to Joe, and he sized it perfectly, and matched up all the design work, so you can’t even tell. Great customer service and work. Will definitely recommend!
Joann Urbanic
I’m getting married in a few days, I was in need of a jeweler who could rhodium plate my Vera Wang wedding ring, as well as polish my fiancé’s wedding band. I heard great things about Mark Diamonds as well as his staff, especially Joe. I dropped my rings off at 12:40pm and by 2:40pm. They were done and looked magnificent. They took such great care of me! I could not believe their turn around time! They are so professional and take such pride in their work! Please go see Joe for your jeweler needs, I know he’ll take great care of you. 5-Stars Well done guys!!!
Alisa Hehir
Joe and the entire staff at Mark Diamond's help make my dream ring a reality. My husband proposed to me with my mother's ring with the hopes that we would take the diamond and set it in a new setting. He had one day to resize the ring and clean it before proposing. He called several other jewelers and Mark Diamond's was the only one willing to help him. After we were engaged, we worked with Joe to create the most incredible engagement ring. He helped us every step of the way and answered all the crazy questions I had when it came to design. When it came time to make the wedding band, he helped create exactly what I wanted, even though it was something they had never made before. The end result is perfection and I am so in love with my ring. Now, everyone in my family knows to take their jewelry to Mark Diamond's for any jewelry needs because they know they'll be treated with the highest level of customer service.
Noell Huffmyer
This is the only jeweler I will EVER go to. I had my engagement and wedding rings (not purchased at Mark Diamond's) resized here after another jeweler (Jared ) absolutely butchered them. Not only was the work done faster than expected, but both rings look completely new - as if they were always that size. Ellen and Heather were absolutely lovely. I can see why this local business has been around so long. Their work was flawless and they made me feel like I was their most important customer. I cannot say enough good things!
UPDATE: About six months after I got my ring sized I wanted to go just a bit smaller. The folks here were amazingly kind and had my ring back to me in two days. It looks brand-out-of-box new. Platinum is perfect and the craftsmanship is flawless!
Phillip
This is my third time buying from Mark Diamond's Jewelers. I know...I should have done this a LONG time ago. Needless to say, 5 stars, all around. Because I exclusively work with Joe, I'm biased to tell you he's the best (which he is), but I'm sure all the other reps are great too. This is a business that prides itself on the highest quality, the best customer service, and the best prices. There is no one better, period, it's over. Trust me, I've looked. I currently live in Denver, but do business with Mark Diamond's bc nobody in my state comes close.
Isaiah Stearley
Excellent service and personality! I went to quite a few Jewelers in Albuquerque before I found Mark. They worked diligently with all of my requests and their prices were very reasonable. The manager, Joe, went far above and beyond to ensure that his product was high quality! We had a ring custom made and it exceeded both of our visions.
S Ryan
The whole team here has been beyond wonderful in resetting my original wedding set. They were pressure-free during the whole process as I came in and out over the past couple of years to get information on different options. Each time I came in, I was greeted and treated so courteously and professionally, they were always happy to help and clean my rings even when I never purchased anything. They even lent me a trial band to test a new metal for any allergic reactions without charge! I’m beyond in love with my set! We will definitely be back. Thank you guys!!
Alaina De Witt
Mark Diamond’s staff has taken care of my family and our jewelry for 3 generations! They are professional and pleasant. We have had repairs and custom pieces made by them and have never been disappointed. They made a beautiful custom wedding ring for me out of my grandmother’s and it is stunning! They are the best!
Jillian Frohn
I had a ring made to commemorate my mother and my husband and the outcome was beyond amazing. Joe did such a beautiful job and I couldn’t be more pleased. The entire experience from sitting and designing it with the owner of the store to putting the finished ring on was nothing less than attentive, sensitive, competent and personable. I wouldn’t go ANYWHERE else for ANY of my jewelry needs.
I HIGHLY recommend Mark Diamond’s Jewlers.
Laurie Johnson
My husband has shopped for me at Mark Diamond's for over twenty years and found their staff helpful and their inventory beautiful and inspired. It was always pure joy when I opened a gift and saw that box! I didn't go there until recently when my wedding set needed repairs. Michelle and Jami spend lots of time with me while I angsted and tried to decide whether or not to repair my original engagement ring or have a new one custom made. In the end, I decided on custom, and they continued to work with me expertly and patiently each step of the way. They listened to what I wanted, offered helpful and experienced insight and suggestions, and maintained regular great communication with me throughout the process. The ring is gorgeous, and I couldn't be more pleased, and I am deeply grateful to them.
Josh Boruff
I went to Mark Diamond’s with a unique issue; I had two damaged keys that belonged to a vintage secretary desk. While they had never helped with key repair before, Joe made it is his mission to get the keys fixed for me. A month and a very reasonable cost later I have two perfect keys again! I cannot recommend Mark Diamond’s enough! Truly excellent business with wonderful people!
Bri Burgarello
Mark diamonds is wonderful! Everyone is so kind and helpful that works there. Joe did am amazing job helping my husband pick out my wedding and engagement ring. Their quality of jewelry is beautiful! We would recommend them over and over again!
Jared Trujillo
I go to Mark Diamonds for all my anniversary and special occasion needs. I get the best quality stones and gold for my special lady. Joe, Miss B. and Victor aways take care of me and make sure I get the best for a great price and always in fast time. My last order was a last minute special order and the turnaround time was remarkable (2 days) just in time for valentines day and not to mention complimentary roses. Great service and great products. Thank you Mark Diamonds for being a my first choice for jewelry.

I had an excellent experience with Mark Diamond's! I'm a little slow in writing this review, but it is well deserved. I had gone in on to size a watch with my girlfriend and she noticed a necklace that Mark Diamond's was selling to benefit Animal Humane. She was very taken by the necklace because it reminded her of her dog that she adopted from Animal Humane. I return later in the week to purchase the necklace and Joe Mares helps me with purchase. Well a series of unfortunate events follow and my car gets stolen with the necklace still hidden in the center console, because I was not able to sneak it inside to hide it. Since my girlfriend really liked the necklace, I go back to Mark Diamond's with every intention of buying another necklace. Joe Mares helped me again and recognized me, since it had only been a couple days since I purchased the first necklace. I told him about he week I had been having and that I wanted to purchase another necklace. They didn't have the necklace in the front of the store, but he goes to the back to look for one. He returns a couple minutes later, says that he found one last necklace, hands me the box and says that it is mine to take free of charge! I was shocked because they were willing to give me this necklace for free, when I was more than willing to pay for it. Whereas any other store would have been more than willing to jump on another sale, Mark Diamond's is in a class of their own for the customer service and generosity! It was one of those great moments in life where you know there are still truly amazing people and business out there! I can't thank Joe Mares and Mark Diamond's Jewelers enough for their actions. I consider this a great place to do business and will certainly be a repeat customer!

I could not have asked for a better experience at Mark Diamond's! I worked with Joe, who is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and customer focused. He was able to walk me through every detail of buying an engagement ring (which helped because I had not considered many of the details he pointed out!) Joe was also very helpful when it came time to purchase and insure the ring, something that was a big concern of mine. I would recommend this family owned business to anyone, especially those looking for engagement rings!
Carol Shirley
A Number of years ago my wedding ring was stolen. Thankfully, it was insured. I had a picture in my head of a unique ring and wondered if they could design it for the amount of money I had? Michelle was amazing at not only understanding what I wanted but in making it fit my budget!
2 years ago I had a silver ring sized. Recently it split. I took it in and ask if they could repair it for me. I got a call the next day that the ring was ready and there was no charge! So even though it was two years later, they stood by their work.
I highly recommend Mark Diamond jewelers!
Bailey McCullough
If I could rate over a 5 star I would. I have had 2 interactions with Mark Diamond's Jewelers and I can't say enough great things. I recently took my engagement ring in to be resized, and while the ring hadn't been purchased through them, they went above and beyond to make sure I felt as though I was the most important client they had. When they asked how urgently I needed my work done and they explained they had received a lot of orders recently, I told them it was my engagement ring and they immediately assured me they would get it done as quick as possible so I wouldn't be without it for too long. Without ever asking for them to rush the order, they had it back to me within 24 hours. I understand this isn't always a possibility and I would always value the quality over getting it back to me with a rush job. However, the work was completed beautifully and the staff was incredibly personable, high energy, helpful, and excited for me. I can't wait to shop for wedding bands with them!
Samuel Gentry
The customer service is second-to-none! Joe helped me create the perfect engagement ring to propose, and my fiancé can't stop talking about how beautiful it is. I would recommend that anyone planning on buying an engagement ring visit Joe-you can't find a better jeweler or a better place to find the perfect ring!
Nick G
My fiance and I went to Mark Diamond's for our wedding band. They worked with us to make a custom band to fit the engagement ring. It took a long time to get the final product, but we were patient and the staff was also very patient with us. We mostly worked directly with Ellen and Joe. The customer service was excellent all around. The final product was perfect and exceeded expectations.
Christine Richardson
Christina and Joe were a Godsend for my family. I have always wanted to surprise my husband with a ring that I knew he would love and they took the time to explore my needs and work with my budget. They made the process seamless and were also so nice to my daughter that accompanied me. They helped include her in the experience and my husband loved the ring they made for him! Can’t wait to go back! Thank you Christina and Joe! You have made a fan for life!
Eileen Price
My father-in-law recommended Mark Diamond to my now husband when he went to look for my engagement ring. He initially worked with Ellen Diamond, who skillfully helped him out when I gave the wrong ring size (whoops!). He was very happy with the ring and the service so we returned for his wedding band months later. Joe Mares helped us find a fantastic matching band and the whole process went very smoothly. At the time we considered getting a wedding band for me that matched my Tacori engagement ring, but it was too pricey for us. We did not feel pressured in the least, which we really appreciated. We moved away from Albuquerque a couple of years ago but still have family in the area. While visiting over Christmas my husband surprised me by taking me back to Mark Diamond to finally get my matching wedding band. We were greeted very warmly and Joe actually remembered us. He helped us find the matching band and basically took care of everything. I had to part with my engagement ring for a month because it was sent to Tacori to be matched with the band (Joe also sent my husband’s band along as well to be cleaned and polished). We were a little nervous about doing this process long distance, but everything worked out perfectly. When they were ready, Joe had the rings overnighted to us and checked to make sure we would be home to receive them. My new wedding band matched perfectly with the engagement ring, which looked brand new (so did my husband’s). Unfortunately, it was too small. This was my own fault—my ring size had gone up and I had just gotten used to my tight engagement ring, but wearing it together with the band made it was very obvious that they were both too tight. I was really mad at myself and was going to start calling around to jewelers in my area when I figured I should just call Joe and ask him his advice first. And I’m so glad I did! He took care of everything. He sent me a shipping label and had the ring resized and back to me in under a week. We have had such a great experience with Joe and the rest of the staff at Mark Diamond. Even though we live out of state now, the next time we’re in the market for fine jewelry we’ll do our shopping at Mark Diamond.

I’m not one to write reviews, but I had to for them. I can not say enough good things about my experience here. My family is currently in the middle of moving and Joe and their jeweler resized my rings over night and got them to me just before I left town! I was in shock, thinking surely I’d have to wait a week or two and come back to get my rings, but Joe and his family made me a priority. They treated me with such kindness and gave me every discount available on their already reasonably priced services. I was a bit hesitant getting my rings resized in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, but Joe and his team are taking all the necessary precautions and were very thorough to prevent the spread of the virus and to keep their customers safe. If you are in the ABQ area and need any jewelry or repairs done, please keep them in mind, because there is no one better than the folks here at Marks Diamonds.

I honestly have to say that there is no one in town that can meet or exceed the quality and service of Mark's Diamond's. I got my engagement ring back in September and it was absolutely stunning! Mark and Ashley helped my fiancee through the entire process to make sure it was the perfect ring and boy it was!!! I got a Cinderella princess cut diamond ring 4.25 carat that just blew me away! Thank you Mark and Ashley ,you guys are truly magical!! We will be coming back soon!
David Silver
I went to Mark Diamond's Jewelers in search of an engagement ring after going to a few other places in Albuquerque - the team here blew me away. Not only were they friendly and extremely knowledgable about their products they sell, but they surpassed my expectations helping me find the perfect diamond and Tacori enagement ring. Recently, my Fiancee and I returned to pick out our wedding bands, and again received fantastic service. Joe went above and beyond during the entire process! Great customer service goes a long way - I'll definitely be returning to Mark Diamond's Jewelers for any jewelry needs!
Andy Hageman
Mark Diamond = Above and Beyond - always. When we went to the other local jeweler "that can make diamonds a part of your life" with a custom idea we were a tad shocked to walk away with nothing but 'NO' - so I ventured across town to Mark Diamond on Paseo del Norte at Wyoming. Upon dishing the deal on an idea for a ring for my wife, they called up designs and set about adding in innovation per instruction. All this while displaying the designs on a large screen for my viewing pleasure. I ordered and surprised my wife with a wonderful eternity ring. So when my watch (a Tag I wear every day) needed a new battery I went there. But this time the replacement and pressure seal didn't go to plan, the watch kept losing time. Instead of making excuses they took it back and redid the job at no cost. Still the watch would miss time :( but again Mark Diamond jumped on the chance to make good and gave the TAG a complete clean and oil at no charge. Can't beat local when shopping is this much fun, especially when they can match online prices.
Laura Pantano
I worked with Joe Mares to deal with an insurance claim on a lost earring. He was prompt, flexible, accommodating and followed my specifications exactly. The earrings are beautiful. I told my husband that any future jewelry he buys me should be purchased here. Any positive adjective you pick could be applied to my experience. Thanks Joe and Mark Diamond’s Jewelers.
Kelly Haslup
Every moment of my interactions with Mark Diamond's was absolutely wonderful!! They were incredibly helpful and very responsive. They helped create a very personal wedding band for both my husband and me, both at reasonable prices. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone for any jewelry but especially wedding-related jewelry.
rdm
I love Michelle & Christina (Joe too but he was off when I stopped in). They’ve become friends because they always take care of me.
I stopped in just to say hello while I’m in town visiting & they ended up replacing the battery in my watch & cleaned my jewelry.
In addition to their amazing service, their jewelry is absolutely stunning! Stop in & check it out
D. Burns
I lost one of my favorite earrings given to me by my husband and I LOVED them. Over the years, the clasp became loose. I should have gotten them tightened by a jeweler, but never did. The result was to lose one. Heather was awesome and helped me find the perfect match. We looked through catalogs but couldn't find a match to the earring. The last option was to have one created. The match is impeccable. Heather and Mark Diamond's Jewelers will take care of you. I highly recommend them.
Lauren Salm
I took a ring in to be sized, but chose the wrong measurement. I took it back about a month later to be re-sized, and the staff was so excellent, helpful, and understanding. My ring was ready in two days and there was no charge! The staff is exceptional at taking care of their customers and it is obvious that they have a passion for what they do. I would highly recommend Mark Diamond Jewelers for any jewelry purchases, jewelry sizing or repairs!
OSO MAN
I walked in with limited time, I knew what I wanted and the staff delivered! They made me feel comfortable in my purchase, like old time friends. I told them I needed a custom made ring in a week, we designed it right there in the store with their state of the art jewelry software. 5 days later I had my ring and they didn't rob me for it either!. I will be using Mark Diamonds in the future no questions asked!
Pamela Mitchell
I went to Mark Diamond Jewelers to have a custom anniversary ring made. My experience was wonderful. I was nervous about creating a ring from a photo (I found online) of a vintage ring. They totally eased my fears and the process was seamless. The ring is gorgeous and I could not be happier with it. I know this is a ring that I will have forever! Thank you to all of the staff at Mark Diamond and especially Michelle.
Lisa Jackson
Amazing! I went to Mark Diamond’s in hopes of getting suggestions for a couple pieces of jewelry I inherited that I wanted to “re-purpose”. Christina was wonderful and had great suggestions on how to update the pieces so that I would actually want to wear them. So, the process for a custom ring and pendant began, Christina and Joe and the rest of the staff were great. They did everything perfectly, taking every measure to ensure that the ring would fit perfectly the first time... Needless to say, I’m thrilled with my new jewelry! It’s as if they worked magic, both pieces are beautiful and I never dreamed it was possible. Thank you Christina for you wonderful suggestions!

I took my finance's ring to Mark's Diamond and had a great experience. She has very small fingers, had to go down 4 sizes, the first time it was too loose, so they remeasured and decreased the size again (at their cost) and it fit much better. Couldn't tell at all and very reasonable prices. The owners and staff are friendly and are happy to work with you if you have a problem. For Christmas my fiancée took one of my old heavy mans white gold ring to them and had it increased (I gained a bit from 19) and it's beautiful, fit perfectly the first time, looked good as new, they cleaned it up and pricing was good considering they had to add 3.5 sizes in white gold. Can't tell and we both love our rings. My next jewellery purchase will be from them due to their outstanding customer service. Please people don't listen to these reviews, talk to the staff, and if you have an issue they will take care of you.
I also had a Citizen Eco Drive watch that was a gift I took to them, they sent it off to citizen and found out the previous repair broke the water seal and damaged the interior. It was too costly to repair (due to taking it to a cheap shop previously) but did not charge me a dime, and I'm sure it cost them time and money to ship it and have it returned as I did not fix it. I have the watch now just a momento and a great experience with this company.
Rick Padilla
I first became familiar with Mark Diamond's about 6 months ago. I purchased a pair of earrings for a gift. While there, I came across an alexandrite necklace set. The set was beautiful and Alexis helped me set up a layaway plan. While in the store making a payment, they replaced my watch battery without delay. I was back on my way in no time. The customer service here is great and I highly recommend making your next fine jewelry purchase from Mark Diamond's.
Sadie Seavey
My finance and I got my engagement ring, as well as both our wedding rings. Joe was beyond helpful in getting our custom ring perfect for us. The store has a warm and friendly environment and made the whole process exactly what we hoped for!
Vince Carretti
Excellent customer service! Ellen, Joe, and crew went above and beyond to ensure I was totally satisfied with my purchase. My fiancé absolutely LOVES her Tacori - she has received so many compliments. Definitely will be back for the wedding rings and for any future jewelry purchases!
Aaron Aragon
this jeweler is the best!! they have welcomed me in since the first minute i walked in the door. The staff is friendly and treat you like family! Joe Mares took care of me when no one else would help. i got my soon to be bride a beautiful ring that she doesn't take off. thank you marks diamonds and i encourage everyone to go look here if you need a great ring!!!
Natalie Baca
My fiancé and I had a great experience choosing our wedding rings here. Emilio got to know what we were looking for and showed us lots of options that we loved. We found the perfect rings for us and recommend this place to anyone looking for quality jewelry and great customer service
Gus L.
I was referred to Mark Diamonds by a friend and specifically was told by my friend to work with Joe Mares. This is one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. I needed an engagement ring on the down low and Joe came in clutch for me. Because of covid, I couldn't go into the store so everything was through email and phone. But man, we nailed it for sure. He nailed it. He got the ring I wanted for my fiance. A beautiful custom ring with my ideas, but he added his creativity and style and WOW! She LOVED it!!! Thank you Joe for taking the time to come in clutch for me. Got the ring right before Christmas. Right on time. Just like he said. Appreciate all you do man. I will be back to get myself something. Happy new year! Start your 2021 year off with Joe Mares at Mark Diamonds. You will thank youself later.
Dena
Have you jewelery repaired her, bought here or cleaned here. They know their stuff and are not fake nice. I felt comfortable with leaving my jewelry here and it was fixed in a couple days instead of the weeks and weeks it took at another place. They knew the metal, the size, and the birthdate lol of my ring. I trust them. Tell them Dena sent you!!
ADAM T
Was after a Tacori Engagement Ring. Mark's was the only Jeweler in the City that sold Tacori and lack on competition concerns me. When we went in EVERYONE was great, had no Issues at all. Joe was very helpful and worked with us to get the right Diamond in and get a ring put together. I would not hesitate to recommend or use them again. Great Service and Knowledgeable staff !
John Rivers
Mark Diamonds Jewelers is the best. It is a classy store. Everything is neat and clean; the staff is friendly, knowledgable and caring; and the workmanship is superb. I have taken three items of jewelry into the store for repair. One was an antique ring which had been in the family for several generations; and needed major repair. I was amazed with how great it looked when I picked it up. The repair was not only seamless; but the ring appeared to have been restored to its original condition. The pricing for all three items was reasonable; in fact, for one of them, a necklace, there was no charge at all. All of the work was completed in a timely manner.
Lisa Taj McCellon
Last month, I had the most wonderful customer service experience at Mark Diamond's Jewelers on Paseo Del Norte & Wyoming.
A couple years ago, I inherited my mother's large and bizarre and eclectic collection of jewelry. She loved "fleas" and yard sale treasures, and thought of herself as a one-woman Antique Road Show, buying and selling and trading all the time. Recently, I unearthed a lovely, very unusual, retro (antique?) 20s-style men's wrist watch from her collection. My husband just fell in love with it. The watch wasn't running and the leather band was aged, flaking, and scratchy on the underside.
I hoped Mark Diamond's might be able to help me get it working and replace or repair the band as a surprise for my husband. I knew nothing about where it came from or how old it was. I didn't even know what metal it was nor if the leather on the band was genuine.
I'd never been in the store before despite passing by it all the time. I am so glad I went! They spent so much time researching and explaining the mysterious watch to me. They worked hard to find the right band for it, checking with all of their suppliers. They pointed out a very very tiny missing part that could have posed a risk for the band falling off. They immediately tested it to see if we could ignore the problem, and set my mind at ease that it wasn't necessary to replace the part to make the watch wearable. They replaced the battery and we celebrated that it still worked after God only KNOWS how many years in one of my mother's jewelry boxes. It looks like I'll be having to get a custom leather band made because the watch and its manufacturer really ARE that unusual and hard to track down.
But you can be SURE I'll be going back to Mark Diamond's again and again. That wrist watch was doubly important to me because it belonged to my recently deceased mother and because my husband, who has worn the same watch since I met him, really wanted to wear it. They treated it and me exactly right.
PS: There's more! A couple week's later I took in another watch that's been in garage storage for 14 years to get the battery replaced so my now teenager could start wearing it. The watch belonged to her birth mother that died when she was an infant. So, again, very sentimental and important. It has interchangeable bands. They put on the band she wanted to wear and replaced the battery. We had dropped it with them while we went next door for a hair appt. They brought it over to us in the salon when done but would not accept payment from me because it didn't make the watch run. The oil inside had dried up and was crusty, preventing it from moving. Instead, they gave me an estimate for cleaning it out and/or replacing the mechanism. Again, the most caring and courteous of treatment for me, my teen, and that special watch.
THANK YOU for all the TLC, Mark Diamond's Jewelers! <3
Barbara Bacci
Recently I had the pleasure of meeting Michelle who welcomed me into the store and treated me like a neighbor. I was nervous about getting my gold ankle bracelet repaired since another jeweler had previously tried to fix it and nearly ruined it. Michelle calmed my fears and I was delighted when I picked it up . The repair was flawless; the chain looked like new. Everyone who works there is very friendly and the quality of their repair work is superb. You can't go wrong with Mark Diamond Jewelers.
Tammy Hebner
One of my favorite chains broke about 6 months ago. It held one of my most precious lockets and I was so upset it had broken. When I booked a flight back to Albuquerque, I brought the chain with me and hoped that Mark Diamond’s would be able to repair it for me..... I had taken broken chains to them in the past and I was very pleased with their friendliness and willingness to help with whatever was needed. I had hoped they would be able to repair the chain so that I could take it back home with me but I was expecting to leave it and then maybe pay for them to ship it back to me. When I went into the store, Heather immediately came over to assist me. There was a break where the clasp held the chain and she took it over to Joe who looked at it and said he could fix it right now! I was SO happy that my chain could be fixed and I could take it back to Virginia with me! The ABSOLUTE best part was that I was not charged for anything! It was such an easy fix and I am SO GRATEFUL to JOE and HEATHER for all of their amazing support and their professionalism in helping me once again. Thank you Mark Diamond’s for being such an impressive part of the community and for helping with all your customer’s needs..... no matter how small💕
Josh Donckels
I went here looking for the perfect engagement ring for my now fiance, and I found it quickly. Right when I was inside I was helped, I told them my situation and they instantly went into showing me their selection. When I wasn't able to find one that they had in the store, I was able to watch as my ring was designed on a CAD styled program right in front of me on a huge screen. This allowed me to then design the perfect ring using some of the pre-built ones. They also gave me plenty of tips of what to avoid as it can cause some problems in the future. I also needed this custom ring in around 5 weeks and the common time is 6 weeks, and they had it done in 4. Then afterwords when the ring needed to be resized and my fiance obviously did not want to give it up for too long, they had it completed the same day we dropped it off. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.
Kurt Orr
This place does it right! Never worked with a more professional, customer friendly jewelry business. Most specifically, Joe was absolutely amazing to work with. His knowledge and professionalism in this field is so refreshing. Will be coming here for all my jewelry needs.
Maximo Canche
The staff here are wonderful! Couldn't have asked for a smoother experience. Michelle helped my fiance and I find exactly what we were looking for and even did some custom work to the rings. Easy to order in items that they did not have and they kept me up to date with all the custom work. My fiance and I are very pleased with our experience and will be returning for any of our future jewelry needs. Thank you very much Michelle and teem!
Dave & Melinda Davenport
I wear a Rolex GMT Master. Not because it is a Rolex, but because I am extremely hard on watches. Recently I took it to Mark Diamond's. What a pleasant experience this was. It was serviced and obviously the watchmaker spent a GREAT amount of time working on the cosmetics of my trusted timepiece. It was returned to me in an almost unrecognizable condition. It actually looked new. Not even a single, tiny scratch was to be found anywhere. As an added surprise I actually paid less than my previous service jobs at another, now closed, Rolex dealer in Albuquerque (where it was always returned looking very much like it did when I dropped it off). I wholeheartedly recommend Mark Diamond's for watch services. They have a right to be proud of the work they do on your fine timepiece.
Elena Vigil
I don't have the words to accurately describe what an incredible experience my fiancée and I have had with the wonderful people at Mark Diamond's Jewelers. My fiancée went into Mark's originally over a year ago having not had any luck with finding a unique and customizable engagement ring to propose with anywhere else in town. Although it was all a surprise to me, he said that the time it was the only place that he felt comfortable after having been to at least 4 other places, and that he knew immediately that their selection was what he was looking for. Of course, I was thrilled with his choice and with their flexibility as he was able to modify a beautiful Tacori setting with the diamond style he knew I would love in a matter of days! But it certainly didn't end there. After having purchased a wedding band from them some months later I had noticed something seemed to be wrong with the skin on my hand. I knew that I had lifelong eczema, but something was definitely wrong, specifically on my ring finger. After going to the doctor and scrounging up my old contact dermatitis allergy results, I was devastated to learn I was allergic to something in the white gold alloy/rhodium plating on Tacori's white gold setting. I thought that I would have to alter, or altogether give up this ring that I was so in love with. However, Mark Diamond's went absolutely above and beyond to work with Tacori and negotiate to get me a replacement in a metal that I knew I was not allergic to, and in only ~4wks!! We also learned that Tacori, while offering to exchange the ring evenly, still wound up charging Mark's for the labor costs, the likes of which never made it to us at all! I am so grateful for the team at Mark Diamond's Jewelers, especially Joe, who not only stepped in when they truly didn't have to, but kept us in the know every step of the way, footed the rest of the bill from Tacori, and presented me with a ring that I can't believe I may love even more than the first!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart! If I could give 100 stars I would! Absolutely go to Mark Diamonds for your next jewelry purchase, I 200% recommend it!
Jackie Kelso
I needed to up the ring size of a family Heirloom in time for a special family event. The staff at Mark’s Diamond Jewelers understood and was so helpful. I was expected up to 2 weeks, I had my ring back in 4 days! Will always use them as my jeweler!
Morgan Pilsontyyrghgjvmjn
While I didn’t experience the store, I did receive a beautiful piece of jewelry. When I looked the store up online, I mentioned to my husband the high reviews and he said that was no surprise. The store was laid out in a very customer-friendly manner, and he could not get over how kind and accommodating the staff are. Thank you for such a lovely experience. We will be faithful patrons of your store from here on out.
Beth Luke
Mark Diamond and family have been my personal jewelers for more than 20 years. They do everything from my repairs to setting loose stones, I have several pieces from their display cases and they did my daughters ear piercing. You can trust that they will not trade out your gem stones. I never go any other jeweler for my needs.
Faye Renna
I followed a dear friend of mine Janet Cortesi, who closed her jewelry store and now works part time at Mark Diamonds. I now understand why she loves working for them! I was greeted by such amazing staff from the first day. Their knowledge and expertise is like no other!
I had acquired a ring a few years ago and I finally decided to have it redesigned. So Christina Mares, And Janet, helped me with coming up with something, that “fits” me. We laughed, and chatted, I felt like I’ve known them forever! We had such a great time!
Joe Mares A.J.P.(GIA), is amazing! He saw what we put together and he made it happen!
It took a few weeks, and I received my ring this passed Friday... pictures don’t do it justice, I am so so thrilled with it, and so is my husband 💕
Mrs. Diamond, you are such an amazing lady, and I can’t thank you enough or your staff! We will continue to only come to your home away from home❤️
Andrew Kapuscinski
Christina helped me pick out the perfect engagement ring. She was very friendly and knowledgeable! Every time I had a question or concern, she responded quickly and I will definitely go back to her for future needs. Thanks again, Christina!
Sasha Sanchez
The staff at Mark Diamond was so great in repairing my wedding ring. They also shortened a necklace for me that I had purchased from an online retailer. Even though it wasn’t their piece, they shortened it at no charge. They’ve definitely earned a loyal customer in me!
Scott Vogt
Joe is the best at making all our jewelry buying and design experiences awesome. He has helped us design very special pieces and guarantees all his work. We highly recommend Joe and Mark Diamond Jewelers!

I will Defiantly be going back here to have our wedding bands specially made for me & my wife!

Joshua Conzo
Christina and Joe made the most beautiful push gift for my wife. I truly couldn’t have asked for anything more. They helped me design it to exactly to what she wanted and made the whole process so easy. Their expertise and knowledge were second to none. I would recommend them to anyone. Some of the most amazing and kindest people to work with and know. Thank you for everything!!
Christine Park
Joe did an amazing job finding me an upgrade diamond for my engagement ring and recreating my original setting! His work was beautiful and he had a short time frame but made it all happen. I highly recommend him!

Clarissa Earl
Best jeweler in Albuquerque! My wedding ring is vintage platinum and they did an amazing job repairing my broken shank, including adding hand detail to match the other side at no extra charge. If you need a jeweler, don’t go anywhere else.
Travis H.
For a while I had been searching for a nice watch and a friend referred me to Mark Diamond's. I had my eye on a specific watch that nobody seemed to carry, but the staff at Mark D. were able to get a hold of it right away for me. They were extremely knowledgeable and helpful in my watch buying decision! I'm very glad I went to Mark Diamond's and will be referring them to my family and friends for their jewelry needs also.
Jeffrey Dougan
I worked with Joe on a custom design engagement and wedding band. Our schedules just didn't line up very well and the designs were difficult because I didn't really know what I wanted, but Joe was extremely patient and accomodating throughout the process. He generated numerous CAD renderings until it was just right and my wife and i couldn't be happier.
Michael Larson
Top-notch! Very pleased with their professional service. We came to get a replacement cost estimate for wife's wedding ring that was damaged a week before our move from Texas. Very helpful and patient.
Tracy Idinopulos
Thank you so much for resetting my wedding ring. I was so happy to hear you would be able to put my diamond back in the original setting. I am so happy with the outcome.
Adrienne Lopez
Great place for all your jewelry needs! Joe is the best!

Best Jeweler in ABQ! From the moment I walked in, I felt like family. Every member of the staff was kind, engaging, and sincere. Not to mention they worked tirelessly to make the ring of my dreams come true. I cannot recommend them enough.
Nicholas Rich
Fantastic experience here, great people, brought multiple rings for repair, super professional and friendly. We will be back and this will be our jeweler as long as we're in NM!
Cullen Neal
Joe is the best in the business. Helped me design my fiancé’s dream engagement ring. And we’re currently finishing our wedding bands. Everything about my experience was perfect.
Mark E.
We thank Joe and Ellen for a delightful experience at Mark Diamond's. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful in our selection and purchase of a gorgeous engagement ring! We highly recommend Mark Diamond's Jewelers.

Best customer service around. Over the years, we've bought our wedding rings, earrings and a bracelet or two. Always friendly and helpful. One of the only shops where repairs are done onsite, so your jewelry is never at risk while in transit. We've used MDJ for over 10 years and will continue to do so. Highly recommended.
Taryn Yee
I needed my engagement ring repaired and it was done very quickly. While I waited for the repair my wedding band was cleaning at no charge. Joe took care of me and it was amazing customer service!
Audrey Ortiz
You will not find a better jeweler than Mrs.Diamond! This is an incredible local family owned business and I WILL NOT trust my diamonds to anyone else! Ellen and her staff did a beautiful job on my wedding rings! With a diamond for my birthstone I know I'll be a repeat customer! Thank you!

Well, this has been a long time a-com'en....this review that is. I don't even know where to begin!! Talk about being blown away...Michelle and the Gang...Joe (i.e. "Pedro") and Alexi...amazing-amazing folks to work with. Sincere, honest, trustworthy...and smart! Alexi is also cute...which never hurts...just saying...
I had a project that needed to be fixed a few times and never once did they complain or try to spin any of the issues...they instead, listened and continued to work with me...offering up alternative suggestions until the issue was resolved. Now, mind you...it was all simply my fussiness with the outcome of a particular finish....but again, they weren't going to leave me the least bit unhappy....I'm not kidding.
The project was resolved and to be honest, i couldn't be happier. Seriously Albuquerque, these folks know their stuff and most importantly, they truly care! This is a tough-tough industry, extremely cut-throat and not usually honest....but in my experience, these folks just blew me away. Michelle runs a great business and Joe and Alexi are top shelf partners!
Thank you Mark Diamond - I love the ring!
Martin Richardson
Mark Diamonds treats you like family! Bought a beautiful ruby ring for my wife and she absolutely loved it! Joe gave me awesome service and answered all of my annoying questions! Thank you for making me feel a part of the family!
Betsy Levinson
I want to thank Joe for fixing my necklace earlier today. He was so gracious and kind and was able to fix it immediately. It is a sentimental necklace and I will be forever grateful!

I do not write reviews, but the customer service at Mark Diamond's Jewelers (MDJ) is so incredible, I felt compelled to make an exception. I have no affiliation with MDJ and am receiving nothing for this review. I have now shopped at MDJ multiple times. However, it was clear after my first visit that their goal was to do the right thing for me. The entire staff is a pleasure and Joe Mares is exceptional. I have had MDJ service my watches and I have purchased jewelry from them, and I could not be happier. I will never go anywhere else and will recommend MDJ to all my family, friends and business associates.

While on a quick trip to Albuquerque, my Rado watch needed a quick repair. I had no idea where to go to address the issue. Was I ever blessed driving by and stopping into Mark Diamond's Jewelers. They were the most polite, accommodating, knowledgeable and fun people to deal with. I cannot thank them enough!
nicole sanchez
Excellent customer service. Emilio was great! Fixed my necklace - that I did not purchase there- for free. Great crew!
Judy Thomas
I walked in and asked about their available services because I needed rings checked for lose prongs and a few other services. They were willing to meet my limited time frame. Completed the work with a few minor things. All worked out for the best. Plan to be back soon for more repairs. Most of all they have outstanding customer service.
Kevin Brault
Joe is the only person I will let work on my diamond watches. The whole staff is excellent and the prices are outstanding. If you need anything jewelry related, this is the best place in Albuquerque.
Corina
My husband and I were greeted immediately as we walked in. Everyone was so kind and attentive. May I just say, we have found our forever jeweler!
Thank you, DJ & Corina V.
Erin Kirk
Joe is not only the jeweler, Joe is the man!! He created an engagement ring for my fiancé and I that could not have been more perfect. He was patient and took the vision we had to a new level. The amount of time and care he gives his clients is amazing! I cannot say thank you enough! He made one special day even better. This ring will stay in our family forever and means so much thanks to Joe! BEST JEWELER!
William Blakey
It is rare you walk in a business and not only do they greet you, but engage in conversation about you. Also, was dog friendly. They made me feel priority in serving my issues at hand. Business at its finest. Shout out to Joe and his staff. Thank you!
Chris Hawthorn
They go above and beyond to make sure you’re taken care of. They were with us every step of the way to make sure the engagement ring and wedding ring were exactly what we wanted, and even beat their quoted time frames. Truly an amazing experience!

Everyone here is wonderful but Joe is the best! I was proposed to on Christmas (something I’d waited a few years for) and the ring was almost 3 sizes too big. We were leaving a few days later for a little 4 day road trip. I wasn’t ready to let the ring go just yet and wanted to at least get to enjoy it during our trip before getting it resized. Kind of silly I know but I’d been waiting a while for this proposal.
I had called several jewelers and the ones that were open were estimating 3-5 weeks to resize. One lady had suggested buying an adjuster piece but after looking on Amazon, only one adjuster set would maybe get here before we left. Then I called Mark Diamonds. They estimated about 2 weeks so, feeling defeated, I took the ring in thinking at least it’d be ready shortly after our return. Joe put a little metal adjuster thing on so I could wear it on our trip which made me extremely happy.
Once we returned, I dropped the ring off and they had it resized in about a week. A few weeks later I noticed the band had separated on one side and took it to Joe and he fixed it within a few days. I will be having them resize the wedding band as well and plan to purchase a few items from them for my daughters. I never thought I could love a jewelry store but here we are. You guys are amazing!
Ariana Hansen
We are so happy we chose Mark’s Diamonds for our wedding rings! Sandra was amazing and warm, she made the process fun and easy. 10/10 would recommend to anyone- we will be using them in the future for sure.
Chad Adams
Joe and the rest of the team are great. Always takes great care of the customers and provides excellent service. And the best part is they have an excellent selection of jewelry.
I recently went in to get a few links taken out of my new watch and the process only took a couple minutes. Definitely worth a five star review.
