Dear Friends,
I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out to personally share some exciting news about the next chapter in my journey within the world of fine jewelry and timepieces.
As many of you know, Wixon Jewelers—where I had the privilege of working with so many wonderful clients—has closed its doors. While it was bittersweet to say goodbye to a place that held so many great memories, I’m thrilled to let you know that I’ve joined the team at Continental Diamond in St. Louis Park.
Continental Diamond is a family-owned and operated jeweler that has been a cornerstone of the Minnesota jewelry community since 1981. They are known for their exceptional customer service, strong community involvement, and for offering one of the largest “owned” selections of diamonds in the state. Whether you’re looking for that one-of-a-kind heirloom, a beautifully crafted wedding band, or an everyday piece of fashion jewelry, you’ll find something truly special here.

For watch enthusiasts, Continental Diamond is expanding its collection of pre-owned luxury timepieces—featuring iconic models from the most respected names in horology. This ever-evolving collection offers unique opportunities to discover rare and timeless pieces. Their in-house watch technician is regarded as one of the best in Minnesota, and their four expert goldsmiths make their service and repair department second to none.
One of the things that drew me to Continental Diamond is how closely their values align with mine. Their team truly treats every customer like family—and I mean that. Their "we care more" philosophy is not just a motto, it's a daily practice. I’ve felt right at home since day one, and I’m genuinely excited to bring the same level of care, trust, and expertise you've come to expect from me over the years.
If you're in the market for something new, need help with a special piece, or simply want to say hello, I would love to see you! Continental Diamond has so much to offer, and I’m confident you’ll feel as welcome here as I have. Please feel free to reach out anytime or stop by and visit. I’m looking forward to reconnecting and continuing to assist you in celebrating life’s most meaningful moments.
Warm regards,
John H. Carter Jr.
