Do they need pics of your chain beforehand, or they just go off your word of the specs?Just officially put my order in to Reys for a 12mm 23 inch 14k! Norma agreed to take my Daniels chain as part of the deal

3k difference is not light. You can get a combo with that difference.

Thanks bro, the free engraving definitely put it over the top for me, not a fan of the box lock looking plain, it's a small space but if you have an imagination you can make something nice happen!I mess with Rey but if I have a price difference like this when I cop my next I'm going with Leon.

Rey starting to charge that Artisan premium. Dont mind paying a few hundred extra to get my chain made by a true artist of his craft as opposed to just some worker at one of these other shops where quality might vary. Athough im not sure who makes leons chains seems like quality is top notch as well most of time. That being said when it comes to couple grand difference i might take my chances on that random worker lol. Glad i got mine from reys before the taxin.

well I did pay over 11k for the chain, I asked for the engraving to be done after the price was set and they had no problem making it happen. also wasn't charged for the shipping. I'm sure everything changes per order per person.

I just wanted something different from what most people were doing, plus I had a few yellow gold Figaro chains over the years and the thought of rose gold fit right in with the direction I was going.
only thing about it is people constantly ask if it's real
, just not used to seeing it!

I feel you, figaros (and ropes) were the chains I use to rock w/ in my younger days
Yeah man, I dont ever see rose gold cubans. Reds my favorite color too so it would make sense

Over here I don't even see cubans, period.
Men wearing jewelry, especially gold, is very very rare here. Not that it's actually considered weird or anything, just something you typically don't encounter.

What size you looking for?
There doesn't seem to be consensus when it comes to ropes. Jacoje gets mentioned a lot but I think most of these shops get their ropes from the same spots for the most part I believe

Have you checked locally? I saw some yesterday at this jeweler by the crib. I feel like if you can find em locally you might be able to get a cash deal or at least be able to haggle a little better.
I'd also keep your eyes open on ebay

While undoubtedly those are high value chains those will forever look like the ‘hip hop’ and ‘bling bling’ chains you get at the Halloween store.
