3-4MM sizing Franco difference (DAY 6)

[@sparkonthehorizon]

If more jewelers would take the time to educate and communicate with their customer-base, we the consumer would be able to make more informed purchase-choices. With that being said, Braden takes the time to break it down and if you're willing to learn a little something along the way, you will not only become a loyal customer, but a savvy one. Happy holidays everyone and always remember, we're in this together.

[@krazyshady902]

After watching 100 videos of franco chains I had my mind made up that I wanted the 3mm 22inch ... today I was in a jewelry store and tried on a 4.3mm 24inch. It was so much smaller than I thought. By looking at it I thought for sure it was 3mm at the most. I learned that these chains definitely look bigger on videos than they do in person.

[@user-vg8tv1hp9c]

Thanks for the tip brother. I think I’ll go with 4 or so then. 3.5 did sound too good to be true

[@GTFBITK]

Did you pick that 4.3 up?

[@DankyMcstanky]

They have heft for the milliliter if solid. I have a silver 8mm 24inch and it’s almost 200 grams

[@edgarallanbroo]

I just received my 3rd Jacoje purchase, 5th piece from Braden. Stop looking. You found your jeweler. Most recently I purchased a 1.4mm box chain. I’m very very impressed with the attention to detail on the soldering near clasp. Only jeweler I’ll go to.

Needed the info. Well delivered. Now I know which chain to purchase for my soon to be new Marine Grandson marrying my Marine Granddaughter. Thanks

When are you restocking the 3mm 20/22 inch franko bro?!!!

[@isaiahperson4711]

Rope has always been my favorite. Also love the flat curbs and mariners

[@donatellaj3179]

My favorite chain is the chain that I wear currently, it is my Jacoje link 3mm chain. This chain happens to be very first chain, & I think the design of the link is so unique, beautiful, & so eye catching. My husband wanted to get me a Franco, but I wanted the Jacoje link so bad, & he purchased it for me from Jacoje. When he saw it in person , he definitely saw what I had been telling him about the beauty of the Jacoje link. And now for Christmas I asked him for the Jacoje link anklet, I hope I get it! Thank you!

[@datboyjamel]

Jamel D. Como, NC 3.5mm Franco is the best hands down !

[@Adamas11]

Good points…I agree that the 3mm Franco flops around a little bit different. It doesn’t lay as strong and heavy as a heavier chain. A heavier chain is definitely going to lay better. Like you said, it is going to be like an anchor on your neck. That being said, I had a 20” 3mm Franco and got rid of it for the reason above. I am thinking about 22” 3.5mm Franco. A heavier chain and slightly longer chain would lay better on my frame.

[@jimmyhelvig5609]

Dude you are the best man. Your jewelry is without a doubt the best ive ever bought. Keep up the good work. I also appreciate your impeccable customer service. Jimmy H

[@isenhouroutdoors8530]

Just got my 5mm 18k gold Franco and absolutely love it!!

[@TrevorATX]

Congrats man that’s a beautiful chain. How are you enjoying it? Personally I’ll be getting a 5mm 14kt white gold (I know unconventional) but it’s pretty nice looking at a little more unique. While still have that’s fat gold around your neck. Either way I love yellow white rose all the gold! But yeah looking at the 22inch 14kt white 5mm Franco here!

[@manyelnicholson5984]

[@chucksmerdon6256]

Thinking of changing from a rope chain into a Franco. Curious if there is any option to change the clasp on a 3.5 or 4MM Franco to a sleek clasp? I'm not even sure if a sleek clasp would work with anything but a Miami Cuban but its worth asking. Also, I do have a crucifix pendant on my 4MM rope. I would put it on the Franco as well. Would there be any issue with getting the pennant loop over the clasp? Thanks for any help...

[@visionarystyle_]

Do you ship to Australia?

[@oddunlckly5525]

Jonathan, j Brooklyn, ny Best chain out there is the rope with a nice diamond cut finish 😱

[@robfrancis2195]

Hmmm... your diameter sizing is a bit confusing. For your ropes you should count on the actual diameter being smaller than advertised, but for your diamond cut francos they're bigger? Why would a 3.5mm basically be like a 4mm? Seems like all that does is give you more work, between answering sizing questions via email and dealing with exchanges. Why not just advertise them to be what they are? I understand that writing 4.2mm or 3.7 seems a bit odd, but a 3.5mm should not be 4mm. You're also potentially losing customers when they see that a 4mm franco chain from HRC is significantly cheaper than a 4mm franco from Jacoje, since they don't realize that your 3.5mm is equivalent to HRC's 4mm. I feel like you shot yourself in the foot with that one. Good content otherwise. I like your stuff and your prices.

[@nolastnamejames177]

I hope all is well. Are you able to add a stronger clasp on a 4mm Franco?

[@YuanMizzle]

Yuanmei Z Yukon, OK Think my favorite chain is a 18k white gold 3mm Franco. Can’t decide on diamond cut or not.

[@gmansjewels]

Are the links all soldered to the next?

[@bradonvega4965]

I can feel the weight on my 4mm 26inch franco its a great feeling every morning I put it on and feel the weight can imagine once I have tht xl jesus piece paired with it 🙌

[@M3_86]

I took your advice and went into a big box store and pointed the one i liked out. They tag said 4mm and it didnt look overthick but what i want. Would you say thats equivalent to your 3.5mm then? Im looking for everyday use and to keep it subtle and to tuck. Or would you say its your 4mm as well? I figure big box stores would say a true 3.6mm is a 4mm lol. Damn thieves!

What can i pair the byzantine 22in chain with? Franco? Hermes?
