(PRESS RELEASE) LAS VEGAS, NV — AGS Laboratories has engaged Advanced Diamonds, a Las Vegas diamond cutting service, in an effort to further support the needs of clients and AGS members by offering laser inscription removal and recutting services.

“AGS Laboratories saw a need to establish a professional relationship with a well-respected diamond cutter with a local presence,” said Jason Quick, laboratory director of AGS Laboratories. “This service will further support our clients, AGS members and the industry by reducing the time and expense of getting merchandise to market.”

Advanced Diamonds operates independently of AGS Laboratories and is headed up by Karl Kruger, a master diamond cutter with decades of experience. Kruger also specializes in AGS Ideal Cut and AGS Triple Zero diamonds.

“The beauty of having Karl and his team in Las Vegas is that this service will save our clients time and ultimately money on reduced shipping,” said Quick.

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
