GIA is offering a limited-time discount through the end of the AGTA GemFair Tuscon show for all purchases of this innovative instrument. Visit store.GIA.edu to sign up for the interest list.

“Developed in conjunction with GIA’s Global Research Team, this microscope is packed with cutting-edge features, designed for optimal performance and customization, catering to the needs of gemologists and scientists in various settings, whether grading diamonds or colored stones, in a laboratory or retail environment,” said Anthony Brown, GIA director of instruments operations.

“The research team set out to create a microscope that preserves the ergonomic advantages of its predecessor, incorporates modern LED lighting technology for extended illumination, and enhances functionality with added features like fiber optic light,” said Dr. Wuyi Wang, GIA vice president of research and development.

Key Features of the GIA Gemolite NXT include, 1: LED Lighting: One of the only professional-grade microscopes with adjustable LED lighting, the GIA Gemolite NXT remains cool to the touch. The LED well light offers various options for viewing different gemstone features, accommodating techniques such as darkfield, brightfield, diffused, reflected, and polarized lighting.

2: Optics and Magnification: The microscope includes a set of 10X oculars for increased total magnification up to 50x, soft eyecups and a specially designed optics pod that is optimal for use with diamonds and colored gemstones.

3: Ergonomic Design: The GIA Gemolite NXT features an ergonomic, adjustable focus column with large focus knobs, ensuring ease of use. The rotating base with a stationary power cord enhances the user experience.

4: LCD Digital Display: The level of illumination for each light source is displayed on an LCD digital screen adding a modern touch to the microscope.

The GIA Gemolite NXT Professional edition includes all of the above features plus two interchangeable fiber optic lights, LED illuminated overhead lamp, 15X oculars for a total magnification of 75x, soft eyecups and adjustable armrests for enhanced ergonomics.
