It's 24.5 grams. If you want a Miami Cuban You're looking in the wrong spots

It's hollow man. If you are looking for real Miami Cubans just go to Daniels, Rey's or that CMG place. You will not find a better price. Although lot's of people only buy Cubans because they're followers i would imagine some people buy them because they are strong and heavy. A hollow Cuban defeats the purpose.

I never even seen the prices buddy. Usually the MSRP (Manufacturer suggested retail price) means nothing. I remember years ago i was looking at Invicta watches and some would say like $3000 MSRP but on sale for $299

I have to go to my jeweler pick up my new chain today so I will try to find the book with the beads in it. Almost every beaded chain I could find was between $75-100 a gram.

It's funny how gold has dropped like 40% over the last few years but jewelers prices dropped like 5% if any.

Yep, I know. I recently got a quote on a platinum Cuban and they wanted more than what gold would cost when adjusting for 24k gold. How you figure that when platinum is $860 an ounce.

Well jewelers pay around spot + 5 - $10/gram from their wholesalers, so $7 - $10 extra seems fair to add on for people like us. Of course that depends on if you're buying a 10g piece or a 100g piece. Also stuff made in house will/should be a bit cheaper.

I'm glad my jeweler hooks me up with whatever current gold price is

The diamond setting on the OG Tito is perfect. If anyone brings that mold back they need to leave the setting just as is. That setting shows how raw and where the jewelery game was back then. Adjusting anything on it is basically going to kill the look of it. Look at all the Jesus joints with "better" or "kufi" or "crown" settings on them with the similar face as the Tito joint and see how ******ed they look.
Thankfully I'm on my dad's will where he'll pass down all his Jacobs and Tito and Cuban down to me one day
But until then, shoutout to icebox and whoever needs a Jesus, better stop slacking and head that way

Fukk buying from a retail jeweler, they tax any chain 10x more than it's original value. I just cop from traxnyc or certified jewelers on Ebay.

You do know trax is prob the most retail jeweler out there. He doesn't make nothing custom and all comes from catalogs lmao

Touché , I meant to say I don't really buy jewelry from physical stores cause they tend to charge more than the actual worth of the item
