Leo Hamel
Jeweler in San Diego, CA
I began this firm in 1980 and built it by selling fine estate jewelry, mint condition pre-owned watches and providing great prices on loose diamonds and engagement rings, because that was what my clients wanted. As time went on I added new fine watch lines and designer jewelry because my clients asked for them. Estate jewelry has always been a great value for our client; everything including classic diamond studs, platinum and gold pins and necklaces, precious gemstones, colored diamonds, and ornate enamel too! There is something for everyone and in every price selection.

History
read moreLeo's career in jewelry began as a salesperson at the jewelry counter in the Walker Scott department store. Leo was fired several times for bending the rules to give his customers a better shopping experience but was always re-hired because he was their top salesman. His boss at the time "suggested" that he start his own business. So in 1980, with $125 in their pockets, Leo and his partner Robin Hart, ventured out on their own. At swap meets, street fairs, and any place people were gathering, they would set up a small table, and gradually their passionate following of loyal customers grew.
