Dude I feel your excitement… I have my 5mm 18k 28 inch Franco on right now , and yes I am tickled to have such huge chain on my neck my chain weighs 123 grams and I am stoked just like you. I do not wear my chain often enough
Lol great man, I’ve always told myself I wasn’t going to go bigger than 3mm for chains, I get bigger bracelets but in my head I always said anything over 3mm on my neck would be too much....after watching this review I HAVE to get this chain, what a beautiful chain man, congratulations
Awesome man I see your subs going up!..remember all us who was here since the beginning lol 💯
It's worth noting to anyone watching deciding on if you want the 4mm or 5mm or whatever size that they always look AT LEAST 1mm bigger on camera for whatever reason. Basically if you like the look of these videos of a 4mm get the 5mm etc. You like how the 3mm looks get the 4mm. Same goes for any of the chains, I know Braden and everyone always says it but the best way to go about it is size if you like the look of a certain MM on camera, go to the next size or even a size after the next.
Like your reviews Mike and passion. I have a 3.5mm Franco and love it. I wouldn't go bigger but I'm also 5'9", 14lbs and not trying to be flashy. Your comment about him not changing price is incorrect. He has been doing that on old stock which he should do. There are many times Braden will have the opposite problem and he can't jack up the price just because he paid more for the gold chain and now it holds less value. So to be smart he needs to raise his prices according to the market price to maintain in business. The 5mm Franco Plain is a chain he has a harder time selling. First its not as popular as the diamond cut and second it is out of most peoples price range. I think this is the only chain on his website below $50/gram for 14k. Just wanted to provide my input. Again I appreciate the time you put in your videos.

Hey bro, I’m looking to get a 3.5, I also just got my taxes back.. lol and am looking to pair it with my 2.5 rope. I know it might look big compared to the rope but maybe I’ll stack 2 2.5 ropes at 20 and get the 3.5 at 20. Do you think it has a good ammount of presence? I’m like 5’4 as well so not tall

Nice video.Once upon a time,I purchased 20” chain,the whole thing was 19-3/4” lol. You are very right about “1/4” of an inch being substantial.
Real talk your videos are killer man!!
Nice chain bro I’m getting ready to order a Franco.Its crazy last year I ordered my first jacoje chain after going on utube and seeing ur first video when you were doing a 3mm Franco review so ur the reason I went with jacoje so thanks my next order will be chain number 8 from jacoje..
I'm sure you've already done your homework on the 6.5mm francos that Braden has. Unfortunately they're not as high quality as his that are sized 1-5mm. They have very big noticeable gaps in the chain which makes it not look like a franco chain. His 6.5 that he carries, doesn't come from the same manufacturer as his sized 1-5mm. I was going to get that size but when I found that out, I went with the 5mm. It's really that perfect every day size chain. Next up is the 8mm 18k rope whenever he gets them in stock but he said it will be about a year or so.

How is it? And how much was it if you don’t mind? I have a 2.5 18k 20 inch rope from jacoje i got not too long ago and love it, I’m going to add another rope or Franco... probably both and that will complete my collection hopefully lol. The 3 mm is the only size I’d be willing to pay for though in the Franco at least because I think it’s a good size being 5’5” and higher than that is getting a bit too expensive for my comfortability and it looks very good in smaller sizes imo

From my personal experience, I would go with the 5mm heavy link over both the chains you mentioned. If I had to choose out of the 2 you mentioned I'd pick the 5mm franco, the 6.5mm heavy link bracelet was a very sharp cut and uncomfortable to wear alot.

Nice chain 🔥 I have a 6mm 20” Miami Cuban link in white gold. I like it, but I am thinking about trading it in for 4 or 5mm Plain Franco in white gold. I would have to add $, which is fine. Money wise, it is not a great move because I am technically downgrading and loosing on the labor charge that I paid on the Miami Cuban link chain. That being said, I may be better off with the Franco in the long run. It seems like a better all-purpose and diverse chain. Thoughts?

@@TheTriedTruth that isn't always the case it depends on what he has on the site and what comes into stock and what the current going price for gold is at that time. Idk if you know this but he will add a chain say for $2500 to the site then leave it at that. Then say 5 months goes by and the chain is still available at that price he leaves it. Gold went up so a new chain he added regardless of diamond cut or plain will be higher priced. Hope that makes sense. You can also sometimes catch it when you click on the white rose options, all 3 options are always supposed to sell for this same but often times you'll see one of them at an escalated price due to restocking and current gold price. Just ask him and he will update and lower the price of said chain or sometimes raise it if it's not in your favor. But like for example a 4mm 14kt yellow franco was on site for 3475, the white gold for whatever reason same spec same everything for 3700. I asked him and he sold it to me for 3475. Said it depends on when he adds and what he has in stock etc but if the price doesn't match the other colors just ask him and he might update the site.
