Using the same technology as Yehuda’s Sherlock Holmes 2.0 diamond detector, the Dr. Watson lab-grown diamond detector from Yehuda has a loose diamond area measuring 1.5 inches by 2.5 inches that allows the device to scan approximately 50 carats of loose diamonds at one time. Designed to be lightweight and portable, the device can check up to six rings at once. Users can store about 1,000 screening test results, along with lab reports, appraisals, photos, SKUs, customer information, and more, in the cloud; additional cloud storage is available for a fee. Powered by a rechargeable battery, the detector comes with a one-year warranty. Available from MJSA member A&A Jewelry Supply • aajewelry.com.
