There is a time and place for everything! I wear my solid 22k and 24k on a daily basis. When I travel, I wear my sterling silver gold plated jewellery because I don't want to worry about Customs when I am coming back or having my solid gold stolen! My real stuff goes into my safe deposit box. This works perfect for my jewellery worry free vacation!
@@jaybrewer3040 Thank you for your interest. My 24k pieces are heavy gold chains, pendants and rings. They don't get any banging around as the chains are over 50grams each and very strong. I just don't worry about them or the pendants and I wear them all the time. I don't wear the rings every day but they are fairly strong also. I don't notice any scratching at all. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours!! 😃
Hey Gus the more I watch your videos the confident I am with the purchase I just made with you. Happy new year 2024🎉 come back to work safely and make my piece, 😅
Gus!!!! My question didn't make the video can you make a 13mm figaro 24inch in silver 925 or 950 with a box lock like you displayed in your video...keep up the content💪
Hey I just purchased one of you guys gold over silver pieces fir my son. Will you guys still offer re plating since you're doing away with the gold over silver pieces.
If anyone in the comments could help me with is topic it would be very helpful. I’m currently getting my bachelors in accounting but don’t really want be stuck in that space is there any way to get into the jewelry industry?
Answer to your why not flash plating jewerly: In my mind, it makes it less pure(that may not make sense to you), and secondly, because some of us see those imperfections as character. I don't know if my chain is plated(I think it's turkish made) and given to me by my father for a graduation gift- It's been on my neck for the last 20 years without it ever been barely taken off(papi mode lol). Thirdly, some likely fear that the plating will come off- is this true or even possible?
I highly recommend NOT to buy the gold over silver chains - ordered one last week and it had multiple dents in the links, spots of un-plated Silver, and scratches all over it. Not worth the markup imo
Gus if you sells 18K Cuban Link chins / bracelets etc Why u do only advertise 14k on your web site? I am interested on bracelet special design 18k. Please let us know thank u
Gus it’s Eric, my chain came out SICK bro. Linking tomorrow with Danny to grab it. Oh and we are putting together an order for matching bracelet, ring and tri tone chain because GusVilla is the best in the game!!!
this isnt a question on instagram for your q&a but just a general one. why the hell is there such a thing as gold filled jewellery and why is it not actually gold filled? holy shit man. the marketing for it is crazy while the name is just misleading.
The handmade Cubans from HB are overrated, supposedly 3rd generation master Cuban silversmiths. My Cuban from them came with the worst soldering I ever seen, actual lumps of silver, some not fully melted, and some lumps have jagged edges, for what HB is charging, it ain’t worth it for amateur rushed craftsmanship
Hope you never change Gus🥺. Thank you for taking care of us customers and future customers.

What custom will with ur jewelry when traveling?
@@AccentBwoy Customs could think you just purchased it abroad.
You are by far my favorite jeweler on TH-cam. I can’t wait till I’m able to order a Cuban from you.
Good honest guy that does everything A-1 and stands behind not only his jewelry but his WORD…
Skip to 3:31 for the "answer" to the question
Do you focus on Cuban link chains because it's easier to make compared to a rope or franco chain? Do you make rope chains?
Your intro humps in truck my dude 😂. Presh the content.
Gus!!!! My question didn't make the video can you make a 13mm figaro 24inch in silver 925 or 950 with a box lock like you displayed in your video...keep up the content💪
Yes but u have to call b4 u place the order
Gus Villa!! We love you bro. Stop by Geezos love again cuh.
Glad to see my question appear, thanks for the clarification 😊
Do you think the pre-owned Rolex watches on Jomashop are authentic? They claim to be an AD
I dont like the idea of u guys covering up imperfections with the flash plate. Once that wears off the imperfection will still be there
Great Friday Q&A.. Where can I get one of them good looking shirts you wear on fridays for Q&A.
How much extra gold do you start with when you make a cuban chain? If you're shooting for a final weight of 250g, do you start with 350g?
Hey gus do you answer emails? 😩
Can you re flash plate jewelry
Hey I just purchased one of you guys gold over silver pieces fir my son. Will you guys still offer re plating since you're doing away with the gold over silver pieces.
I remember him saying in a past video that he would still do maintenance on any gos pieces already sold, just not make new ones
@@GnarledBarks Oh ok cool that's a relief. Thought I wasted my money. That's for the feedback.
Would you recommend the gold over silver?

Get your education!
thanks for educating us gus
Have you done a review on Aporro Brand yet

Daniels has really nice flat style gusvilla is also nice in between thick and flat

Facts bro going through the same thing
Maybe depend on who did it
Can you Plate White Gold or Rose Gold over Silver vs the original Yellow Gold?
How long does that flash plating last?
Depends on how u wear it
Listening you is making me love my 10k gold piece more
Gus if you sells 18K Cuban Link chins / bracelets etc Why u do only advertise 14k on your web site?
I am interested on bracelet special design 18k. Please let us know thank u
Is there any other place that do gold over silver like you? I would like to buy something like that but right now I just can't 😅

Thank you!
Thx!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅😅this was funny
I need blood diamonds bro
For some reason Australian gold is more orange that's a fact.
99% of people have no idea that their jewelry is flash plated. 😂 10kt, 14kt, 18kt. Even some 22kt indian jewelry is flash plated in 24kt plating.
this isnt a question on instagram for your q&a but just a general one. why the hell is there such a thing as gold filled jewellery and why is it not actually gold filled? holy shit man. the marketing for it is crazy while the name is just misleading.
No more gold over 950 sterling silver 😁👍
Do they flash plate 18k gold?
That must be why my cuban from Harlem bling kinks so much. It is super flat. Over filed. That sucks. Guess I just buy my next one from gus

I email you in trading in my cuban link. To upgraded and pay difference on a bigger mm.
Your audio is strange, it sounds like you have prerecorded it and you are lipsyncing, very strange
Gold over silver is ass. Good riddence 😂😂😂
Yep. It’s trash.
I agree
There is a time and place for everything and it's great for travelling.
@@sheritee7328 All my jewelry and watches are insured, so I don’t worry about it when traveling.
@@sheritee7328 it's great for travelling for 5 minutes until the gold wears off and it looks like trash
