Hey Noah! It just occurred to me brother that you mentioned that you're getting a diamond cut. Diamond cuts are absolutely gorgeous but I wanted to just make you aware (in case you didn't know already) that last I checked rope chains that are diamonds cut are actually smaller than what they say. So for example, if you buy a 4 mm rope that is diamond cut you may actually be getting under 4 mm. Just keep that in mind. Double check with Braden at Jacoje to make sure that this is the case and if it is he can advise you further. In either case I think the diamond cuts make a huge difference in the chain itself so even if it's a little smaller than 4 mm I don't think that will bother you personally. But just in case you want something a little bigger keep in mind that this might happen.

Definitely love ur channel joe I just subscribe to ur channel you have helped me decide which rope to buy thank you....

So heres the thing i have a 2.5 a 4mm and a 5mm rope. The 5mm tugs on my chest hair from time to time and its 38 grams so it can be a lot. This is the most important part of this coment...the smaller chanis role on your nech more then the heavy ropes do, that means that the dimend cuts shine more then they do on the bigger chane and thats why I where my 4mm all the time. The 5mm simply don't shine like the smaller ones do. Hope this helps

Awesome vid as always! 4mm to me looks more classy. 5 is if you want to be more showy. When I was younger I was all about the showy look. Now that I'm older I appreciate having the pure class look.

There nice I got 6mm10k .

Is it true that, let say, a 5mm rope chain D/C is actually only about 4.5mm? According to some videos I have seen on KZread, it is customary to measure the diameter of a rope chain before it is D/C (we have to subtract about 0.5mmm for a 5mm rope chain because of the D/C and even more so for bigger ones). It seems to me that not clearly indicating the final diameter is somewhat misleading. It's like ordering a medium pizza and receiving a small one. Should we take this into account when ordering a 4 or 5mm D/C rope chain? Is 0.5 mm makes such a big difference? I'm confused.

@FromADistanceJewelry

Жыл бұрын

Hey, so sorry that I just saw this! Sometimes KZread does not notify me about comments. It is customary that they measure the rope chain before the diamond cuts. It is probably about .5 mm smaller than what is advertised. Some companies will let you know in advance and others will assume that you know unfortunately. In either case I would definitely check ahead of time before buying from a particular company to make sure. And yes, .5 mm in my opinion makes a noticeable difference especially with a chain like this.

@@GOLDEN-GRAMS hey, not a problem at all! Normally I'd recommend the 4 to most ppl. It's a fantastic size. Not too big, not too small and will catch eyes. It's a great size. The reason I mentioned 5 for you though is because your larger than most people that I speak to. Keep in mind, five will definitely be a beast size. However I think that that 5 mm will keep up with your body shape and size very well. If you want it also a lot of different places will allow you to purchase the four and then if it's too small you can upgrade to the five so keep that in mind that you might be able to try both to see what you like best.

Hey bro! So you have some options. You can keep the setup you have now, you could trade the setup that you have now, you can sell it and buy a handmade Miami Cuban or you can trade it for a 26 inch 5 mm rope chain? If I understand correctly this is your circumstance. Keep in mind with the 26 inch 5 mm rope chain it might be possible that even though it is long that somehow you could take it to a jeweler and get it made into a 20 in chain with a six inch bracelet. You'd have to check with the jeweler first to see if that's possible but that might be one possibility. If you're not going to what I just mentioned and I don't think you should go with the 26 in 5 mm chain because you already know that it's going to be too long for you. I think it's too long also personally. If you love the setup you have now with 3 mm I would keep it. If you're not happy with it or just want something new I would sell it and go for the cuban.
