RAPAPORT... U.S. jewelry and watch sales from all retail outlets increased 4.8 percent year on year to an estimated $5.39 billion in September, according to preliminary government figures.

The sector’s total for previous months was revised, as is often the case, resulting in the rate of growth for July being lower than previously reported. Jewelry and watch sales improved by 2.1 percent to $5.4 billion in July, down from an earlier estimate of 3.5 percent. August sales rose 1.9 percent to $5.38 billion.
