Meet our expert, Jonathan Devereaux

I still remember the first time I looked at a diamond under a loupe. It was as if light itself had been trapped inside stone. That moment led me into gemology and horology, where I’ve spent years handling objects that outlive us all. A fine watch ticks through generations. A sapphire carries centuries of history.
At Choice Reviews, I bring that reverence to modern products. I don’t just list carats or calibers. I tell you why one cut dazzles and another disappoints, why a movement feels trustworthy or fragile, why certain metals sing while others tarnish quickly.
Beauty isn’t about expense alone. It’s about integrity: of material, of craft, of intention. My writing exists to help readers see the difference between sparkle that fades and beauty that endures.
