This might be a noob question, but when a website lists some jewelery having Genuine Diamonds, are they authentic? Excuse my dumbness im just confused

 

[eashawty]

Is 10-15 stacks enough to get like 2 custom pinky rings, a iced out gucci watch, and a iced out g-shock?

To rock by itself a Miami Cuban all day! Thats how it goes down here. Bad thing is people getting murked left and right for them down here, even more so now inthe past 6 months. Im still in between what kinda chain I'm getting but for sure its gonna be with a cross Ben made a while back so I might just do a beadchain if a cuban doesn't look too great with it.

Does anybody know what the ballpark is for the all black jesus piece?

Well im in Detroit and its going to get rocked only on my off days which is only 3 days out the week... and I want a charm down the line...sowhats a good chain besides a franco?? post pics please... I dont know how every chain look so I can go by names... thanks

Cubans are the best by themselves. Francos just dont look right when they are without a pendent IMO. It really is up to you and what is poppin around yourarea. I had a Franco for my jesus piece (not a jacob) but I flipped it cuz I went back to the cuban for my custom piece.

But in the Tri-State

This......(not just Miami Cubans, but all cubans)

Murders this, any day of the week.

 

[dunkhead05]

it all depends on what you like.... try them both on at a local spot.... alot of ppl like the francos cuz they dont kink up when u have a heavy piece on likethe cuban will

 

[freakydestroyer]

Old Francos look better

The bottom picture is not really a franco. These hollow ones break all over the place. I keep 3-4 in stock at my store, but do not ever recommend them on anypiece. If someone buys it, we ask them to trade it in within weeks. EVERONE that buys these chains has problems with them.

Solid francos are the ones you should compare to a Miami Cuban chain. They're very strong and the advantage of them is that they are a rope style chain andthey won't wear down over time like other types of link chains do (cuban, figero, rolo, etc).

It all depends on what color diamonds you do. If you're going for all white diamonds and you want to go for a crazy setup, you're going toneed a little bit more. If you're going for black diamonds, you're very close, and you should be happy with what you're getting. If it was melooking to get all those things, I'd mix the colors up on each thing so it didn't look all the same...keep people guessing. Let us know if you havetime to stop by our shop in Buckhead.

word. I like it better stock, not really feelin the diamonds

I google the watch and i'm not feeling the stock images. maybe if i go in person i might like the watch better. the pics on Ben's blog are sick though and I'm feeling the black stones.

Here's mine... If I remember correctly, it'd be like $4500 to flood the case

$4500 - wow

i'd like to see more pics..preferably someone wearing one
im interested in purchasing a franco in the near future.no pendent

 

[DYNAMICS]

Pretty sure Ninjahood has pics of himself wearing his Miami Cuban w/o a piece.

 

[freakydestroyer]

Cubans only look right in yellow. Francos look better in white, but okay in yellow.

 

[tmanm3]

whats up with people wanting stuff on a gucci watch? gucci clothing is fine but timepieces... is a big NO... save your money on a real timepiece. that gets norespect from people that know anything about watches......

Quartz is your CZ of the Jewlery game. Dont push a toyota corolla to a Lexus meet. same principle

 

[skyypilot]

Flooding that Gucci watch would look tacky IMO. Any Gucci watch actually.

Heres a few of mine.

FYI I hate takin pictures so most of the time I just got a blank #$% stare.

Without Pendant.........

With Pendant......

 

[alleniversonfan01]

And did anyone else see these at the "Bay"

For the price it isnt bad. They say it Hemite w/e the hell that is.

Might be a good alternative since I dont think the black jewels things is gonna last too much longer.
