How to buy a diamond watch on Amazon?

Bringing you some great in-depth knowledge of buying diamond watches online through Amazon, ebay or any other world class online stores.

1) The first you need to ensure is that the stones you see or described are genuine 'Diamonds' or "Cubic Zirconia also called as C.Z. " stones. Many sellers use terms such as "Diamond like looking stones" are set on watches, which mean they are referring to C.Z. stones and not genuine diamonds. Genuine diamond watches will carry a certificate from the brand owner.

2) When it comes to comparing prices, it would be good if the seller has detailed out the carat weight of the diamond(s). The carat weight will surely define the price of the watch.

 3) Just buying the watch because the description mentions diamonds, would not be wise.  You might want to do a little research to compare prices of other sellers and see the diamond carat weight. Never buy watches that have less or unseen diamonds for 'rip off' prices.

 4)  The heart being most important organ to a humans body, the movement of the watch is referred in the same terms when it comes to buying a luxury watch. Swiss movements are the standard benchmark for being used in the making of watches since luxury watch manufacturing began. Always look or if you cant see it in the description you can ask the seller to confess the the origin of movement. Any timepiece using Far East movements from China can just be cleared or deleted from your 'To Buy' list. Prices for such cheap end watches fitted with low quality Chinese made movements may be mouth watering, nevertheless keep in mind the time and money you will spend taking it to the watch repair guy downtown. They dont charge you cheap either.

5) Most diamond luxury watches are a perfect match when it comes to setting diamonds on pure gold as precious metal. The second best non-precious metal is solid stainless steel. On gold, diamonds are hand set by craftsmen that have precision buit into their blood stream. These craftsmen have years of experience purely in diamond setting. Diamonds set on stainless steel by hand is not easy and neither possible. The process through which diamonds are set on steel through computer guided machine is called 'CNC' or CNC setting.
The holes drilled by the help of these machines are as precise as your hair thickness. There is no room for error when holes are drilled by such sophisticated machines. The diamonds are hand set piece by piece by experienced craftsman using a high-tec microscope to enusre the diamonds are perfectly held by the minimum two and maximum four steel prongs . It could be said that if diamonds are held together by four prongs around the diamond, the warranty on the stones not falling off could be as long as you are alive. Having said this, you have to discount out freak accidents where you bang your watch against corners or the watch accidentally falls onto the floor, or your house keeper steals it for the beautiful diamonds gleaming through.

6) You might have read in point 5 above that there are chances of your diamond watch falling onto the floor or when you are traveling it might just fall off without you noticing it. This is bound to happen if your watch was fitted with a standard shoe horse buckle. So in short, go for a watch bracelet of leather strap thats fitted with a solid steel butterfly buckle to ensure even if the watch buckle open up during an accident, the watch would still be on your wrist and not fall off onto the floor thus causing damage to the glass or the diamond setting or even getting scratched.

7) Certification and the box add extra importance to luxury watch brands, just as in Scorva we follow and worship our packing ethics.
Every watch should carry an international warranty card, the watch packed into a beautiful box and an instruction manual showing you how to set the date and time or use the functions of the watch. Never leave the store from where you purchase your watch without the store salesman signature and store seal to the warranty card proving that you could take it back for repairs within a year or two if there is any manufacturing defects. All Swiss movements operate trouble free from 2 to 5 years depending on the battery power and how often do you use other functions on the watch.

Let me share with you the inside "to the point" parts that you must care or take notice of before buying your diamond watch
a) Watch case :Precious Gold is best, Stainless steel is the least best metal. Any other metals like brass or alloy will change colors and rust within 2 months.
b) Movement: Ensure the watch movement is either Swiss or second best is Japanese from CITIZEN or SEIKO. No China made movements can last between a week to a month. Other then us, your watch repair guy down your street will tell you the same truth but in your own language...since we did not put these tips in the language you understand better. Did you laugh, thats what we wanted you to do!!!

c) Always ask for a warranty card and check the wordings on the back of the warranty cards, for how many years and what parts are covered under warranty period.
d) All buckles should be atleast a standard butterfly buckle.
e) No scratches around shiny surface or back.
f) Confirm via email or ask if the seller is the authorized distributor of the brand. Many fake brand sellers are thriving online and making you run for your bucks
g) Finally, all is upto the sellers reputation for selling fake or re-furbished products to cheat you and cut a hole in your pocket. 
Report them to the right authorities online and make online shopping space a good experience for others that will dare to buy online just because you made the first difference to reject fakes.
