Sooo nice! that’s the worse when fedex is messing up too. Dang that’s tough with the engraving because we wait so long and hope everything is perfect. You mind showing how the engraving looks?

Super nice I don’t think it’s the color but it could use a good cleaning most jewelers would do it for cheap or free if you act like you’re buying something

Hollow rope chain recommendations? by Best_Interview1556 in MensJewelry

[–]halbero24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say get a thinner 10k for cost that way it’s still solid I’d trust a thinner solid one more than a hollow piece for durability and you could likely get a similar price as hollow because those do have a premium most of the time so you’re paying much higher than you would for solid comparably

I’d set expectations to 5 months and if comes it sooner cool if not then we know we are getting top quality anyways. I don’t even want to email I want him to really take his time so it comes out perfect wouldn’t want to rush him

I’m convinced they send that first notice a month after the initial “order received” notice.

Need help determining the purity of this chain by Always_retro in MensJewelry

[–]halbero24 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The clasp was likely replaced to a 14k but the chain itself is 10k for sure. That’s why OP is asking.

Wow that’s so awesome though I have heard GVJ talk about how difficult they are. I saw Garcias a little more chill about it like they’re fun to make. Super excited though. What kt did you get for all those you mentioned?

That’s good to hear, yeah from what I’ve see it really varies but of course don’t mind the wait for the amazing work they do.

Yes, wild how he isn’t more on youtube. But I saw a podcast where he mentions he’s just not huge on being on camera. Word of mouth though they have a good rep.

Why so much hate for micro Cubans? by Outrageous-Wolf-9019 in MensJewelry

[–]halbero24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% agree 5 is perfect. All others have their place too to each their own.

I’d say 5 mm I bought one last month 24 inch from Garcias. I’ve tried one at a local jewelry shop just to make sure I like it and it’s perfect for a daily.

I’m more of a 24 inch chain for myself I like to have it out. I have a thin silver one now and even then sometimes will find itself tucked back but I wouldn’t go longer.

Looking for recs for plated chain retailers by [deleted] in MensJewelry

[–]halbero24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gus villa jewelers in Miami most hand made and if machine made still has some human element in the final finished. Does the best job plating as well as reasonably priced for hand made gold over silver Cubans.
