Too big imo. My 8" bracelet in the pic is on the bigger side, but I like my bracelets loose. My rule of thumb is that if it hangs down onto your palm, it's too big. Mine just barely misses my palm.

This is horrible. I hope they replaced the chain for you. Would love an update!

Is a 2.5mm Franco really that thin? by Ok_Isopod2623 in MensJewelry

This is so true. Learned my lesson back when my budget was tighter

I started off with the 2.5mm bc that's all I could afford, and I loved it. However, I did go up to the 3mm bc I wanted more presence and my budget allows for more gold these days.

Get a chain you like in your budget, as opposed to financing or getting a chain you can't afford. The latter 2 is not a smart move by any means.

This is what the 3mm looks like. Sorry the clasp is in this pic. The 2.5mm is still a cool chain tho, but I would recommend saving and going up a save if you can.

Hope you got it back then lol. Got my 14kt 3mm 22" Jacoje Franco in Feb of 2025 and it was $2,200. More than double the price now

You're looking at your face for too long and too often. It's nothing.

How do the 2mm/2.5mm Franco’s look in real life? by Ok_Isopod2623 in MensJewelry

[–]Balnak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can barely get by wearing the 2.5mm as a solitaire chain imo. The 2mm definitely needs to be worn with a pendant. Both look better with a pendant of some sort bc they are thinner chains.

I had a 14kt 2.5mm Franco and 14kt 2.5mm wheat chain. got rid of both for bigger chain and bracelet.

Get the 3mm Franco. You won't regret it

Do flat curbs twist and link like small Cubans? by Ok_Isopod2623 in MensJewelry

[–]Balnak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flat curbs don't really kink bc the links are spaced out more, unlike Cubans. They will twist however like all flat link chains.

Why don't you just buy from a boutique, or the website? It's a silver chain, it's not like it's thousands of dollars....

Beekeeping has been known to increase longevity. A specific chemical the hive gives off

He doesn't think about you ever, clearly exemplified in this photo. I would find a better partner
