A friend of mine was talking to a jeweler he's cool with and my friend asked him what he sells 14k per gram. Dude said honestly your better off getting a 10k, most rappers you see get a 10k Cuban and just dip it in 18k.

 

[spicaly]

After seeing all of the police auction jewelry I believe that

miss my 14k Cuban with the flooded out cross...copped for a G back in 2000... Would be worth at least 4 racks right now...

Ain't nothing wrong with 10k for everyday wear. It might look a little dull but if its shined up and polished ain't nobody checking for percentages

 

[blaz3n]

get 18k

Lol for every day wear?

 

[bostongeorge]

Lol for every day wear?

I wear 24k for every day wear

 

[dead stokc]

Lol @ people thinking anything under 14k is unwearable for everyday wear

 

[python]

i got rid of anything i had 10k. nothing wrong with it, but for my personal preference, i rock with 14k or 18k only. i feel better knowing its over 50% gold content. might sound silly, but that's how i feel. on another note, 8K gold is actually popular in the UK i heard

 

[you go boy]

i feel the same way... i can only rock with 14k...

10k aint worth spit though...its not even 50% gold.

Yea lol

 

[frank mucus]

I get the "less than half" thing, but
14k is only .58

i dont see why 14k gets off the hook. 18k is 75%. Thats still a C average...

Are any of the classic dejesus 18k? Kanyes double stoneless?

Alot of folk in here reject the "18k too soft" line, but ive always heard that 14k is the happy medium of shine and luster

That cheese color of high carat is fuego though...

I have an 18k Kanye Jesus with white diamonds and so far it's held up fine.

Anybody here have an idea on how much it would cost to ice out a 8mm 28 in Cuban?

too many factors...rock type & quality, and setting price per stone, and how many is gonna be used overall.

I'm guessing around 8-15k depending on diamond size and quality

 

[bostongeorge]

if  $10k is the asking price thats only  $29.40 a gram for a iced out 10kt cuban

in this case flooding da chain took more value off it, especially aince its 10 carat gold.

 

[you go boy]

am i the only one 1 who dislikes flooded out chains

 

[waitwut]

flooded chains are nice but diamonds dont really hold value like that not worth it imo

 

[glennvagmire]

Flooded chains are for the people who don't care if their chain loses value.

Just sayin.......

If this chain is 10k those diamonds added value to it
