Rolex Arrives at
Pasco's

Kiefer Village Jewels President, David Hevia, announced on June 6, 2008,
the Land O' Lakes store's official designation as an "Authorized Rolex
Jeweler." Now featuring a fully-stocked Rolex salon in their location
at 24144 State Road 54 (Lutz, FL), KVJ also now offers Authorized Rolex
Repair Services, Rolex Warranty Servicing, and provides Rolex
educational materials. Rolex Watch, the most famous and recognized brand
name in watches and jewelry, started in 1908 and 100 years later has
arrived in Pasco, lending to the county's signs of prominence. Kiefer
Village Jewels, established in Dade City in 1957, expanded to Land O'
Lakes in 2002 and moved into a custom-built free-standing site in 2006.
German National Citizen, Hans Wilsdorf, started the
company with his passion to create the first
wristwatch. The adaptation from pocket watches would
require many transformations and raise the need for
resistance to shock, dust, and water. A quick study of
Rolex on their website, Rolex.com, timelines the
inventions and advances leading to today's master
timepiece. Simply put, the history of Rolex is the
history of the wrist watch.
Less than 800, or 2%, of the jewelry stores in the United States are
Authorized Rolex Jewelers. That places locally-owned Kiefer Village
Jewels at a high-level of prominence realizing a goal that has been
10-years of hard work and a lifelong dream of company leaders, David &
Wendy Hevia. "Everything we've done, every decision we have made since
we started, has been with the vision towards being a Rolex jeweler,"
explained Wendy Hevia.
The Hevia's purchased the jewelry store from Dade
City icons, Al & Margaret Kiefer, in 1997. After
relocating to a main downtown corner location, they saw
opportunity in fast-growing central Pasco. The #2 store
first opened in a strip-center but shortly thereafter,
they purchased property along State Road 54. "We could
see that Central Pasco was going to boom," Hevia
explained the investment.
The Hevia's, both in jewelry since youth, met while working in
competing mall jewelers during their early 20's. While courting, they
dreamed of running a jewelry business that carried fine products like
Rolex. After 23 years of marriage, they have achieved one of their
greatest goals. Wendy said "We sought guidance to the Rolex track after
our first year with the (KVJ) store. The last 3 years have been intense
with inspections, assessments, and meeting the high standards they
expect. This is a very exclusive institution. It just doesn't happen
overnight." David added, "This is huge for us, all of us, Kiefer
Village Jewels - and Pasco County. They didn't just select us, they
also selected the area. They did their research and concluded that
Pasco County is ready for Rolex. We know we are."
KVJ presents a free Rolex
demonstration and educational session by visiting the store
during regular store hours which are 10a - 8p Monday through Saturday,
and 12p - 5p on Sunday. The store phone number is (813) 909-2393
and email is Rolex@KVJewels.com

Kiefer
Village
Jewels Introduces
Private Label Timepiece Collection
Click
>>>
Here
Wendy Hevia, of Kiefer Village
Jewels, located at 37850 Meridian Avenue in Dade City, is
happy to announce that
Kiefer Village Jewels
now has it's own private label
timepiece collection. This beautiful collection of exclusive timepieces
have the name Kiefer and their knot logo on every dial. Every Kiefer
timepiece is made in the USA from Swiss parts and comes with a 3 year
warranty. Each piece is presented in a magnificent mahogany finished
wood box. "Our
private label time pieces have one of three fine Swiss movements; E.T.A,
Ronda, or Valjoux, all of which have been, or are currently found in,
high end time pieces" said
Hevia.
Rolex used E.T.A movements in times past and Valjoux movements can
currently be found in some Breitling time pieces. In addition to the
finest movements available for watches today, each of the
Kiefer Village Jewels
branded time pieces come with a synthetic sapphire crystal. This
crystal is virtually scratch proof as is the second hardest substance
known to man, next to diamonds. The crystal can only be scratched under
EXTREME circumstances. "These
timepieces are an exceptional value and you
won't find an equivalent time piece with our name behind it at
the price! " said
Hevia.
