I paid $1100 for a 10k Franco chain, about 5/6mm 30” diamond cut. I had it for ten years now, and wear it pretty often. No change in the color over time. It is darker when it hasn’t been cleaned in awhile, like any other gold purity. I love 10kt because it’s more durable than 14k, because it’s harder, which is not discussed in the video. Good info otherwise.

A Franco is a SOLID sturdy chain anyway so, I own a 10kt yellow gold flat link for everyday wear and have a 14kt yellow gold 5mm plain Franco from JACJOJE and it is my fav chain and the best Franco link I have ever seen legit.

no, you like 10k because you can afford it. has nothing to do with strength as 14k is more than strong enough. i wear a 5mm 22k chain and bracelet daily and thats way softer.

[@SilvaManVids]

10k is great to start with, especially if you want to have a sturdy piece that will stand up to wear and tear. Not to mention the amount of different pieces you'll be able to cop for different looks at a cheaper price point. If you got the money to spend on the higher purity go for it! But there are pros and cons for everything. Wether it be 10k, 14k, 18k etc. Be happy and confident with what you have knowing​ your wearing something real as well as something of value. When you have the finances and opportunity, build up to what you would like to have!

I have worn a 10K chain that belonged to my grandfather. I have worn it every day for over 20 years, I sleep with it on, I shower and swim with it on, I sweat heavily with it on. My grandfather also obviously wore it for many years (20 to 30 years). It still looks brand new with zero corrosion and zero tarnish, it does not cause me any allergic reaction, which is something I get from sterling silver. I believe if it is good quality 10K gold, mixed with the correct metals (minimal nickel and copper), it will last a lifetime. I would say the main issue is whether this is an investment in the gold, or something you want to wear because it looks good and you like it. I do see the draw towards the more pure gold because the colour is much more intense. I also love how all my 10k rings and chains hardly have a scratch, while my 14K stuff does have many more noticeable scratches.

I have 10K gold, 14K gold and 18K gold jewellery pieces. Any gold jewellery could slightly turnish over time regardless of the gold percentage. Even if it turnished slightly over the years, it is so easy to clean it to restore the shine, so it really all comes down to what you can afford and prefer.

You're leaving out a MAJOR fact! A 14k piece of jewelry that's the EXACT SAME size and dimensions of a 10k piece will weigh much more done in 14k! So not only will you pay $7 more per gram, there will be more grams to pay for. The price difference is much larger than you are making it seem. Considering both 10k and 14k are identical in appearance...yet, the surface of the 10k piece is more scratch resistant...it may make sense to go with 10k more times then not.

Winston S couldn't agree more. I was just telling somebody. People forget. There are only 3 forms of gold. Solid hollow and plated. Not pure... Only pure gold is 24 kt.

Cause I can go to my nearest trade center and get a buklshit 10k or 14 k hollow chain let's say 24 in 7 or 8 mm say 25 30 grams. For who knows $700 800. That shit will turn on you faster than a snitch in court. But a solid 10k or 14k. You're looking at $2500 and up. 22 in 24in. 50 60 grams.

[@bestblackoutvideos]

@@SharkByteOfficial depending on how heavy your chain is, being 24k, it holds its weight the best,i would not slam it around, it definitely will dent, and scratch, it wont necessarily break, but COULD leave some noticeable damage compared to 10-14-18k,......... 24k is very malleable ,and soft.(relatively),STILL VERY HEAVY! i would not recommend getting any chain in 24k, because it is just too heavy, it is way heavier on the neck, a little bit uncomfortable, like a huge weight, be better off with 18k, if your going for purity, weight, but hey, it doesnt matter everybody has a preference, its all pretty durable if solid and not hollow, 10k is probably the most durable, less malleable, and does not FADE, even though it has less than half gold purity weight, it will never tarnish its still gold.

[@SharkByteOfficial]

@@bestblackoutvideos its not as maleable as they make it seem, trust me. I even work with pure metals only. The dents would be very very minor and unnoticed and if anything add shine. Metal is never soft. I have seen 60 year old pure pieces with almost no damage. Yes the weight can be there if you get grams on grams of it, but why would you waste money on a poor investment like 18k, 14k, or 10k if you want a nice piece. Especially if it comes marked up so much that you would have to wait 20 years before you could even get a couple dollars back on resell or remelt from the low percentages of gold and weight. Theyre honestly just poor excuses made by big jewelry businesses to be able to sell people more lower quality pieces off of the same original weight from the pure ones. Not to mention 10k, 14k dont even look like gold in reality. They look like fake gold, in fact theyre so difficult to tell from fake jewelry at times.

Even silver will not tarnish if stored properly. Can real gold turn skin green? Yes it can! That's due to the acid on skin interacting with the gold.

Most jewelry stores don't sell by gram weight so you're overpaying anyways.

Really the only reason why your real gold chain will turn your skin green is if it was mixed with nickel. If your jeweler mixes any of his jewelry with nickel. Then you need to switch jewelers, because he is a horrible cheap jeweler.

Anthony Liddell king tut ain’t using damn 10k he’s a king not a broke boy

[@sparkonthehorizon]

lololololololol

[@tblz406]

Seti Inteff it’s actually 18k for the face and neck and 22k for everything else

[@MajorVein]

I want to save up and get one of your francos! I'm new to buying gold and I'm just looking to shop for myself. But I've been learning a lot man! Good looks !

[@daviddelossantos5616]

I have silver and gold. The only gold I have and wear is 14k 18k and 22k just because I know the % that’s in it. Personally I wouldn’t buy 10k just because of the % but if you want something on your budget and don’t want to wait just go for the 10k 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@JewelsNcrime]

10 kt will stand the test of time and should not ever lose its actual gold color, 10 and 14 both have chances of oxidation a.k.a tarnish which you can simply polish. 10 kt is still real solid gold and has scrap and pawnable value ,not just that but it's more durable and can outlast 14 kt because of its higher ratio of metals. So 10 kt is not only a more affordable option to own real gold it's more long lasting and lesser chances of fragility. I would be more concerned with people buying or investing in 1/20th, gold filled,gold plated, electro plate, hge or gold tone etc etc than 10 kt.

[@chillbill8591]

10k is better in my opinion when it comes to wearing chains. There more durable and damage less with having mixed alloys . I’ve owned this chain for 3 years and no tarnish.

[@MrBanegasgaleas]

Thanks men, your opinion helps me a lot, makes sense you know save a extra bucks for more amount of gold so at the end of the day gold jewelry it’s something you will wear for decades or life time.

[@grimreefer213]

10k is fine for a first chain. looks fine people will know it's gold. but definitely imo get 14k it's a noticeable difference and it's worth it.

[@jacoje]

+grimreefer I agree

[@iamjones407]

Actually not a difference at all. Both 10k and 14k are identical to naked eye.

[@grimreefer213]

JERMAINE JONES that's completely untrue.

[@grimreefer213]

JERMAINE JONES I can send you pictures right now of my 10k vs 14k chains with stamps, you can easily see the difference man. 10k is dull and orange-ish looking. 14k is bright yellow gold.

[@Worldwide_Rio]

10k ain't gold. It's got gold in it. 58% other metals makes it more metal than gold. It's metal with gold in it. Just save and buy 14k it's not much more and at least you can say you have Gold.

[@danixoncabrera473]

10 k still gold . Just mean it has 41.7 percent 24kt . Still gold . You can pawn or sell it .

[@pedrohenriqueduarte1]

Remember 10k still has pure gold in it

[@Real2k25]

Yea I don't see anything wrong with 10k gold

[@NoKreativeUsername]

Salute B!!! Still here. Every video since u were shooting hoops back in the day. I have most 14k but i have some 10k. 10k is like the stepchild to my 14k. I feel iffy cuz its not at least 50% of the lovely gold i love.

[@jacoje]

haha my guy! Don't ever leave this channel or I'll stop making videos! DAY 1!!! Even though you pretty much know everything about jewelry..you still have to support

[@NoKreativeUsername]

JACOJE LYNX i know it goes against ur product (maybe) but is Italy stamped gold better. All my Italy stamped gold has always shimmered more and seemed more "goldie". Idk man. Talk to me.

[@white8590]

18k - 24k is way too pure to wear as an everyday jewelry and isn’t really strong. Definitely prefer wearing 10k - 14k gold as an everyday jewelry piece that you can do basically anything with. After all, no matter the carat, the gold is still on there. It’s still gold.

[@apbtbulldogs8826]

I prefer the color of 10K, had many over the years from 8K to 18K and still prefer 10, just preference.

[@brandonlecesne5971]

Maybe I’m crazy but I actually prefer the lighter gold color of 10k. I don’t really like super shiny yellow gold.

[@iamshewhowalksalone820]

Me too.

[@fbgduval]

The gold karat amount in a piece that is covered in diamonds or zirconia doesn't really matter to me, you really won't see the gold anyways so I would go with 10k, the cheaper option. If I were to get a piece with diamonds I would get a 14k or 18k piece, with CZ, it doesn't really matter, I wear both since the place i buy my crap at sells both and only offers CZ on certain pieces that do not have diamonds as an option, but I have a really small 20" 14k (also really thin) rope chain that I wear on the daily. I like to show the way I feel in a physical matter if you know what I mean

[@barbarousrelic4591]

The base metals in 10K have been known to cause allergic reactions as well. Most people that think they have a "gold" allergy are actually experiencing a reaction to the nickel in 10K yellow (and some white golds). I feel like you're probably irritating a lot of overpriced merchants with these honest/informative videos, but you're making tons of loyal customers at the same time!

[@Boudell]

That is not totally true. You need to stop going to Jewelers that mix their gold with nickel, and go to a good jeweler that mixes with platinum, palladium or silver instead. Then you wont have to worry about allergic reactions to nickel mixed jeweler. A bad jeweler will even mix 18k with nickel as well.

[@dannygreen5477]

But 4 karats for some reason eliminates that..??? I just think some of the gold people have is trash or maybe not real.

[@oroyplata7526]

The only difference in 10,14,18 is the amount of gold in them. They have the same alloy just different amounts. If you have a reaction. To 10 then you will have the same in 18. Same alloys just different amounts.

[@mcali-reviews5585]

In the end 10k 14k 18k or 22k will never be 100% pure gold so why bullshit or compare gold purity also only 24k is pure gold and no one hardly buys it because its super expensive and can damage fast the statistics show the majority of people buy 14k or 10k

[@TheBostonTom]

I have had a 10k chain for 5 years. Yes it has lost it's shine a bit and now looks brassy, the gold color is not as rich as my 14k chain I where every day. There is a difference between the two. Braden is right in saying SAVE up and go with 14k you won't regret it.

[@TheBostonTom]

So I sent my chain out to have it buffed and it came back looking beautiful shiny and just like new again. That's the good thing about buying a hand made chain right from the person that made it in the first place. It's funny because I watch an interview on a famous jeweler that makes pieces for rappers and he said that 90% of the pieces are made from 10k gold. I was surprised to here that.

[@bestblackoutvideos]

i have 3 chains, one with 10k rope 1.5mm, and close to 10 gram 10k jesus on cross, a solid 10k curb chain 20 inch 3mm, and a 3mm 14k gold rope 18in. all the 10k around my neck has outshined my 14k piece, and outlasted, and was cheaper, still has same great look, than day i bought them,, the 14k rope can look dull at times , my 10k chains barely do,, i wear them in shower every day, and even coming out the shower my 10k hits wayy harder than 14k,, it is preference, and price, thats all its about,, some people think 10k is cheapest lowest thing you can buy and it will not hold up to the elements like 14k and up, this is false, ive never seen a 10k piece fade or change color unless it was pure fools gold, its about weight, color, price, thats it, nothing wrong with 10k gold. people forget theres still markup close to 300 percent most jewelers, so it doesnt matter wich gold you buy , it is still overpriced, and as matter fact, factorys that make gold chains, actually plate gold over the finished product, to give it a better shine, that says right there that , people think plated gold is fake, not always, and the more pure the gold is, the duller it will be over time unless you regularly clean it, 10k is the way to go unless you just want to be a big ego goldhead, that thinks 10k is jewelrys ugly stepson.

[@noelblash4669]

Well said Jacoje. Everytime I feel like I'm on a Budget I think about compromising the width of the chain, length etc. But really it isn't worth it once you buy it.

[@mtmatt8958]

Nothing wrong with a solid 10kt piece

[@nathanpittman7994]

at the end of the day its about how well you take care of your jewelry and how much you want to spend for the look, even a yellow tone steel chain has a gold look and you can keep it if you really want it to stay

[@wabuwabu9660]

Personally, I stick with 18k. Love the video!

[@jacoje]

18kt is beautiful!!

[@2thousand24]

18ct and 22ct

I am out on a vacation and I am still keeping up with the videos .... keep up the good work

[@Paullebbon]

In the UK 9ct gold is sold more than any other. I have some 9ct gold from the late 1800's early 1900's and if it starts to turn a different colour you just wash it in a little soapy water or run a gold polish cloth over it and it comes up like new. 14ct and 18ct gold changes colour in the exact same way, only 24ct gold is pure enough to stay bright without changing too much, 24ct gold gets dull over time, but looks even better. What you're saying in this video is misinformation and hopefully this will set the record straight.

[@heavenbound9144]

I've Been In the Gold/Silver Game For 20 yrs now..I can't afford anything higher than 10k it will not tarnish or turn Black if yu keep it clean/Tooth brush dish Soap. I recommend if yu go with any size hollow or Thin chains/Ropes it should be no lower then 10k because yu'll need the stronger metals in it to keep it from breaking/Bending. hollow 14k up to 24k risk breaking or bending More if they aren't solid/thick/Heavy..

[@lordmichaelofglencoe9618]

I own 2 items that are 10k gold a gold rope chain and i had it for over 10 years and not tarnish and a diamond ring that is 10k but the rest of my chains are 14k and 18k but my standard is 14k

[@cowser67]

Just subscribed to this channel after two days, love the information. I have a 14k gold chain and want to buy someone a 10k gold chain for Christmas, because they don’t own a piece of jewelry but I’m also worried it’ll come off as cheap lol

[@occultdestroyer]

Only 22k yellow gold for me. No stones/gems. 18-22 inches. I also like sterling silver.

[@jacoje]

Nice

[@COMONSONAJ]

occultdestroyer why no diamonds it’s natural ?

[@alg1124]

I'm a 14kt guy. I have no issue with 10kt for a ring or pendant. 40% gold to me for a chain I'd never do it. Also there are people that wear 18kt and say the same about 14kt I would wear it's all preference.

[@glow1815]

That's me I have 14k. But I only wear 18 or 24k

[@Larry_Gonzalez]

Regardless of the 10 karat you can always melt down your chain and take out babe pure gold which is 41.7% thank you and have a good day

[@frankwhite7716]

Makes the best vids, can't stop watching them all !! Very informative 😁

[@brouckaert94]

Do a video on 22k or 24k!

[@sarahreding791]

I’m glad I watched this I wondered why my 10k rope was starting to look a bit black & im brushing n cleaning it as we speak in connoisseur cleaner so maybe I will make sure all mine is all purchasing now on all 14k. Thanks!

[@kelvinmpatterson]

But 50 % still far from 100 so even if u go 18k u still have other metals n it... So there for there is a Chance that this happens to a 14 k or 18k piece?? Especially if u go vintage?? U wud have to go 24k to have a peace of mind for generations to come. So guess 10k wudnt be the best for generational heirlooms lol jus the buyers life time lol aye I'm coo with that 😁 10k till my money and neighborhood better

[@dayangmarikit6860]

I've seen ancient Roman period 18k and 14k gold... they still look great.

[@glow1815]

I love 18 and 24k. I work from home so I wear 18 and 24k. I don't lift anything heavy on my job lol or construction. I know what you mean though, very true.

[@Elidogz]

Why hate on what each has got . It really shouldnt be any argueing over whos chain is better than whos . 10k 14k or whatever .

[@jasonreyes4648]

24k is not appropriate for jewelry. Its too extreme. Of course 24k is best in bar or coin form. 10-18k are all fine. Its how you rock your jewelry and getting pieces tht fit your style

[@jacoje]

That's what I'm thinking

[@marlonparsons634]

You really changed my perspective I was always saying if you don’t got much cash 10k is more bang for the buck but yeah I totally agree 14k will look the same over a longer period of time.

[@tryrainey1]

He fails to tell you that jewelers won't volunteer the percentage on 14 kt either and 15% isn't a big jump. But if he thinks it makes him feel more elite then carry on lol.

[@markmcgowan3692]

You can’t even tell the difference between 10k and 14k. Why pay the extra money? IMO 14k is pointless. Either save money with 10k or buy 18k and up.

[@VENTURA805WesG]

This was the first video i ever watched. Thought i wanted a 10k necklace. After doing research i had to go with the 14k necklaces from Braden of course. Now im going to get a pamp pendant and a rose rope chain for my mom.

[@mikehundredson584]

VENTURA805WesG gold bar chains were big in the 80's lol when did those come back in style

[@javiercartaya1426]

10k changes color pretty easy with the sweat and I have a 18k watch and it scratch super easy so for me 14k is the best option!

[@edgarallanbroo]

Stop looking. You found your jeweler. The quality is amazing, and prices are extremely competitive. Welds are solid, and pieces hold up very well. Custom pieces are just as good. The shipping is also fast and safe. The videos allow you to see what you’re buying, and were a huge help while making a decision. 💎 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@tucknroll1396]

Wow this hits different

[@timsalcateljoytablet260]

Great thing about 10k gold is: it is very durable, doesn't cost that much, and you can still can it solid gold even though it isn't.

[@christianray9903]

What about 24k?

[@2thousand24]

christian ray too soft especially for rings

[@Disinf3ctant]

I wear some 24k. It gets really bent and dented. I would try get as close to spot price as possible and dont pay too much for finishing cause it won't stay crisp or shiny for long. It's an acquired taste I think. I'm Burmese so I get it from my country. It's a very beaten and hammered look esp for chains and bracelets

[@MaximaJ31]

I got 3 24k gold chain they break so easy my daily 5mm chain broke twice oready and I have a 2mm that's still broken... I'm just gonna go 18 or 14k from now on I think
