A sigma is far more affordable if you wanted to purchase. Obviously not as detailed a analysis but gets the job done.
I worked in a jeweller’s when I left school years ago and I’ve always wondered how Cuban links were made but never looked into it!?!? 30 years later and your video pops up lol!! Thank you 👍🏻

Wow....I had never seen a Cuban link made; I literally thought a machine made them, so my jaw dropped seeing how labor intensive it is to create a single piece, I love these necklaces and the color of the gold just amazing (I tend to gravitate towards 18k & 24k). All I have to say is BRAVO for such craftmanship!!!

labor intensive? have you ever made ravioli from scratch?
Those rolling mills are the best, I used them as an apprentice 40 years ago and they where old then! I had occasion to visit the old workshop and there they are still being used! Italian Engineering how it used to be..
First time ever seeing a gold chain being made. Awesome!!
That is simply beautiful! I'm american but of indian dissent and back in India we only wear 24 carat gold, so I appreciate this especially. I was thinking of having a cuban made in India, but since cuban chains are not a part of the indian culture, I doubt the jewelers there would have the expertise like the person here. I'll seek this gentleman out and have my 24 carat made.
Ive recently grown an interest in starting a career as a jeweller and your video inspired me a lot for sure thanks for sharing.
I never seen a 24k bracelet with that lock🔥🔥🔥🔥
No chain can fade the Cuban Link!!!!✊🏼 Timeless! Like Omega/Rolex watches.
Great video, thank you for filming. Fascinating to see it come to life from raw material.
Great to see master craftsmen create something from a raw material. Love to buy one some day.

Besides the machine you use to pull the wire instead of by pulling by hand was cool, and also the disc that cut the links so you don’t have to individually saw each link. Good job guys!

Everyone has their favorites but this father and son duo are so dope. I just bought a bracelet from Las Villas because these guys had a long wait. Good for them!! I wanted mine yesterday and couldn't wait but I hope to get one from them also one day. The Cubaknow guy was acting like he didn't know the side latches on his silver Cuban box lock were gold. Maybe he really didn't know but after reviewing so much gold you'd think he'd know the difference between burned silver and gold. It was pretty obvious and cool honestly. That's a dope way to classy up a silver cuban. The son of CMG backed up his pops and their work. Stepped up and are showing more handmade box locks also. Took the criticism in stride. Honorable duo. Plus to make this out of 24k must be tough, pure gold is mad soft. Straight talent!!
