The Receipts

Built To Survive Real Life

Real weight, up to 14mm

You judge a chain the second it hits your hand. This one's cut from solid 316L stainless and runs to a full 14mm — it drapes and moves like the real thing, because the weight IS real.

Won't turn your neck green

PVD gold plating over stainless steel — the same coating process used on watches. Sweat, showers, the gym, even salt pools. No green skin, no flaking.

The clasp stays shut

The #1 complaint about cheap chains is the clasp popping open. Ours are welded links with a secure clasp — put it on and forget about it.

Matching bracelet, same chain

Every width is cut for the neck AND the wrist in one listing. Match your widths and the set reads deliberate — not accidental.

Straight up: this is premium PVD gold plating over stainless — we will never call it solid gold. That honesty is exactly why it doesn't fade like the cheap stuff that overpromises.

10-Second Size Guide

What Width And Length Do I Need?

5'4"–5'8", slim to average build 18"–20" (45–50cm)
5'8"–6'0", average build 20"–22" (50–55cm)
6'0"+, or broader build 22"–24" (55–60cm)
Resting on the chest / over a jersey 28" (71cm)
Quick rule

Width: 8mm wears every day and sits under a collar. 10–12mm is the sweet spot most buyers land on. 14mm is full statement weight — you will feel it.

Between lengths? Go longer. A Cuban should drape, not choke — and if it lands wrong, exchanges are free.

Straight Answers

You're Probably Wondering...

Will it turn my skin green or fade?+
No. Green skin comes from copper-heavy brass chains — this is 316L stainless steel with PVD gold plating, the same coating tech used on watch cases. It's waterproof and sweatproof. We'll be honest with you: any plated piece treated badly for years can wear, which is why every order ships with a care card and a warranty that actually answers messages.
Does it look fake up close?+
The two tells of a fake are weight and shine. This chain is solid stainless (not hollow), so it has the heft and drape of the real thing, and PVD gold holds the same tone as 18K. Buyers' most repeated line in reviews: 'feels real because of the weight.'
Which width should I get?+
8mm is the everyday pick — it reads as a real chain but still slides under a collar. 10mm and 12mm are where most buyers land: obvious presence, still wearable anywhere. 14mm is the statement piece, and it is genuinely heavy. If it's your first Cuban, start at 10mm.
Will the clasp pop open?+
That's the #1 complaint about cheap chains, so it's the first thing we fixed: welded links and a secure clasp rated for daily wear. Put it on in the morning and forget it exists.
