5 carat is more "uniform" appropriate I think when worn with a watch.

I have an 8ct and I never wear it because it feels like it’s too much for daily wear and I don’t work in an environment where people wear flashy jewelry. I would go with something smaller like the 5ct if I had to make this decision over again.

LOL diamonds in general no longer signal wealth. All of my 20-something colleagues and relatives are wearing ginormous lab diamond engagement rings.


The company one keeps is a mirror


Are you saying I am now 20? Wouldn’t that be nice…

You are hilarious. I hope you are a troll.


Why would I be a troll? This is the fashion forum, if you aren't interested in fashion you can move right along. Or contribute an idea of what a better everyday bracelet would be.

I thought you were joking. But apparently you are not!

However, the Pickleball bracelets look a lot like tennis bracelets.

You're living in the past. You can get a 7 ct tennis bracelet for ~$3k these days.


To be fair, any conversation about a tennis bracelet is living in the past.
