It will be called the Las Vegas Estate Jewelry & Watch Pavilion.
PALM BEACH, FL – The Palm Beach Show Group is expanding its line-up of shows with the launch of the Las Vegas Estate Jewelry & Watch Pavilion, located in the center of the JCK Las Vegas show floor. JCK Las Vegas will return to the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino June 1-4, 2018, introducing over 23,000 visitors to the new Pavilion.
“We are thrilled to be able to work with the Palm Beach Show Group to bring the best antique and estate dealers to the main JCK Show floor at Mandalay Bay in 2018,” said Yancy Weinrich, senior vice president of Reed Jewelry Group. “This new content of one-of-a-kind and vintage pieces to offer the buyers of JCK will be just another reason that they can’t miss attending the show. Attendees will no longer have to visit other events to find antique and estate jewelry and watches – everything will be at one show.”
Scott Diament, president and CEO of the Palm Beach Show Group, said the dedicated pavilion “has been created in response to high dealer demand.”
“Antique and estate jewelry and watch dealers want the tremendous buying traffic that JCK Las Vegas offers,” Diament said. “We could not be more excited about working with Reed Expositions.”
Over the past three years, show director Andrea Canady has helped the Palm Beach Show Group expand its portfolio of events to include high-end jewelry and watch shows. The New York City Jewelry & Watch Show launched in 2015 and the Miami Beach Jewelry & Watch Show began in 2017.
“Dealers were so impressed with the quality and success our first annual Miami Beach Jewelry & Watch Show,” Canady said, “I had countless of satisfied dealers express interest in exhibiting with us in other cities – reiterating the obvious demand to add Las Vegas to our show schedule.”

Four Decades of Excellence: How Wilkerson Transformed a Jeweler's Retirement into Celebration
After 45 years serving the Milwaukee community, Treiber & Straub Jewelers owner Michael Straub faced a significant life transition. At 75, the veteran jeweler made a personal decision many business owners understand: "I think it's time. I want to enjoy my wife with my grandchildren for the next 10, 15 years."
Wilkerson's expertise transformed this major business transition into an extraordinary success. Their comprehensive approach to managing the going-out-of-business sale created unprecedented customer response—with lines forming outside the store and limits on how many shoppers could enter at once due to fire safety regulations.
The results exceeded all expectations. "Wilkerson did a phenomenal job," Straub enthuses. "They were there for you through the whole thing, helped you with promoting it, helping you on day-to-day business. I can't speak enough for how well they did." The partnership didn't just facilitate a business closing; it created a celebratory finale to decades of service while allowing Straub to confidently step into his well-earned retirement.
