2) VVS clarity diamonds:

3) Watch battery conversion chart:

Watch battery conversion chart.

Why do watch battery manufacturers put so many different numbers and letters on batteries? Can’t they all just get along and use the same numbering system?

6) CZ versus diamond:

CZ vs diamond.

How can you tell the difference between a CZ (cubic zirconia) and a diamond? There are actually a couple of quick easy ways. Jewelers can look at a stone and tell if it’s a CZ or diamond in just a matter of seconds.

How? Color is one of the ways.

7) Diamond girdle:

Diamond girdle. Lots of people are interested in the edge of a diamond.

The girdle is the edge that runs all the way around the diamond (like a belt). Girdles can be rough, smooth, polished or faceted. But some can also be weak and vulnerable to chipping.

Invisible set diamonds.

Diamonds, jewelry, and invisible mountings make for one very popular post. What are invisible set diamonds?

10) SI clarity diamonds:

SI clarity diamonds. SI clarity hits the #10 spot and for a very good reason. SI clarity is the most popular diamond clarity there is.

SI clarity means slightly included and has two grades: SI1 and SI2 (also SI3???)
