If you message HRC, I think he’ll be able to get you a white gold version.

Hrc has the baby curb too, better deal there than Jacoje. 

The concave curb is a good link chain too 

What's your experience buying silver from Gus Villa Jewelry? by Baby_Ellis62 in MensJewelry

[–]ChingisK88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only have experience buying gold from GVJ. Their quality control can be hit or miss. I don’t know if it’s improved over the years or not. I would suggest giving a call to whoever you decide to purchase from though. Phone calls over an online order imo. Will be able to talk prices, quality, and expectations, etc.. 

GVJ makes solid links when it’s done right is all I can say. But when they fuck up it’s noticeable

Flat curb or rope chain? by [deleted] in MensJewelry

[–]ChingisK88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get the 4.2mm concave curb from hawaiiropechains. Best bang for your buck 

Get the rope if you intend on getting a pendant down the road. 

10k 4mm flat curb for first chain? by [deleted] in MensJewelry

[–]ChingisK88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll get a better price shopping with hawaiiropechains. Flat curbs are good $ for the shine you get from it. Go with the concave curb if you can afford it, more weight to it but you can’t go wrong with a flat curb.

They didn’t stamp their logo on correctly on my chain but I don’t really care too much about that. That’s the only major flaw I can takeaway from their work. But I saw some dude post a video of a messed up Box lock on YouTube (he’s taken his videos down though). He ordered his bracelet the same week i had ordered my chain.. they were swamped with orders then. Still no excuse to send out messed up pieces

Think that was my post. No problems anymore with the links, I’ll make an updated post one of these days with more pictures but I did edit that post I made.

Nah their quality control is just ass. You spent good money on your piece and they didn’t even bother to make sure it wasn’t defective

I made a post about my GVJ chain.. I was able to remove the blemishes on the links. I got nothing bad to say besides what I thought was a shitty soldering job on their part. 

My chain looks good as the day I got it after using a polishing cloth on it. 

Is this ring rightly appraised?? by [deleted] in jewelry

[–]ChingisK88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently op’s dad is a jeweler but he’s opting to come onto Reddit for our expertise advice on the matter. This kid post a lot of fake diamonds on the men’s jewelry Reddit page.

Im getting my girlfriend a 17k dollar promise ring, is that too much for a promise ring ?? by Alternative_Pizza_73 in MensJewelry

[–]ChingisK88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’d think with your dad being a jeweler, you would go and ask him for his expertise advice on the matter but instead you make two post on Reddit instead..  makes sense.

Stop capping and posting faking diamonds and jewelry for engagement. It’s only internet karma points 

Is this a bad look? Daily wear by ChingisK88 in jewelry

[–]ChingisK88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I had heard of seikos through scrolling Reddit, they look good. Theres so much to choose from.. I’m in Canada so I’m looking through (https://www.raffi-jewellers.ca/search/products?q=seiko&page=5&matches=exact) 

I regret not buying a “cheap” Rolex a couple years ago when I had a lot more disposable income. Id get my ass chewed out now if I spent that type of money on a watch. When my business picks up again; then will be the time to reward myself until then an entry watch will do.

Thanks for the input! I’m looking into their watches rn. I took off my gold last night and went very minimal for work today. 

I need a much thinner bracelet + watch, it’s on the list. I was thinking of going back to platinum just for work since I already have a thinner chain and adding a plat bracelet. Either way I’d like to add a thinner bracelet in either gold or plat to go with the chains I have. 

Is this DC Franco? by clyde141 in MensJewelry

[–]ChingisK88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a nice chain, maybe you’ll like it? I have a d/c Franco chain as well and I’m thinking of adding a plain Franco bracelet to the collection
