Finally, a SOLID review of a chain! I think I’m going to get the 3.2mm HL at 18inches to pair with my 3mm Franco and 5mm Cuban both at 24inches. (I’ve got some layering small pendant chains in between at 20in) I’m excited
This is perhaps the best review I’ve seen of this chain. Very objective and clear statements with good b roll. You touched on a lot of good points and reasons that I like this chain over other options and demonstrated it well, particularly with how this chain “flashes” while other chains like ropes “twinkle”. I’d totally watch comparisons to other pieces you have :)
Thank you man, I appreciate it. I’m particular with my stuff so it’s good to know I’m not the only one walking around thinking about chains lol. Twinkle versus flash!! You summed it up perfectly, if I use that in future videos I’ll credit you. Def stay tuned, will have some more coming out
@@cksdigest No problem! You're definitely not alone! For me, I bought my first gold item last year (a ring) and since then I've been wanting matching pieces. I looked at a ton of options, and decided that despite the cost, I'd love a solid piece that will last a lifetime (hopefully). I'm usually very frugal, so to "earn" the necklace, I'm using it as my reward if I start going to the gym and go at least 3 times per week until the end of the year. The heavy link just caught my eye in a way that ropes and other chains simply can't, and now I think about it every time I work out haha. It just the right amount of flashiness without looking tacky, and this video is really helping to sell me on it further (especially with the HD video quality).
@@justblayne4533glad to hear it! That’s a great perspective, to earn it. So when I had this chain, I wore it in the gym a few times and those were the moments where I didn’t want to sell it. It was tucked in but popped so much…it was so noticeable. Very enjoyable.
@3:11 the way you describe the light movement on the Diamond cuts is absolutely on point! 💯 🎯 Great way to explain, as I have found NOBODY this far to explain it in that manner! 👍🏼
I just wanted to say I love your videos man. Very informative man. I like the 18k chains you have especially the Franco’s. I think if you keep doing these videos it’ll attract more people
Solid review. I recently purchased the 6mm power link in 18k. it's a beast. The links are so well casted and the diamond cut definitely has that crazy shine you're talking about. The only aspect that I am not completely satisfied with is the brightness of the gold. I have other chains and bracelets from different brands in the same link style, karat, and they are very bright vibrant yellow, what 18k looks like, as yours looks like at 2:00. Mine looks more like 14k, slightly muted in color. Lighting also definitely maters as well to bring out the brightness of the gold. I'm debating wearing a pendant on it. Overall I'm still very happy with my purchase.
I bet the 6mm is incredible, with our without a pendant! Yeah that’s what I’m discovering with highly polished flat edge chains, they reflect so much light. Makes me wonder if the same applies to the baby curb.
Your reviews are really good. The one with the rope and Franco comparison had perfect info. I have this 3.2 in WG and you’re right about the presence even when tucked it. It’s a really cool chain imo
Thank you! I’m trying to get better at providing both the data and b rolls to support. I’ve considered the WG variant, the heavy link might look the best in WG
@@cksdigest I’ve had the heavy gold in yellow and because of that major shine and presence on the flat surfaces, it felt super loud for my particular taste for a daily wear. I haven’t taken my WG since I got it. Just waiting for him to send me a boss cross to match.
Out of the 18-20 gold chains I've had, my 18K 3.2mm Jacoje Heavy Link is my favorite & the only chain I have now. This includes chains ranging in size & purity all the way up to 5mm Franco & Heavy Link, & 24K Dragon Scale chains. When it comes to light refraction there's no comparison IMHO.
Two chaining 3.5 franco is like 80g around your neck? That's comfortable in all everyday situations? Asking because I'm interested in Two chaining a 3mm franco and a 3.5 franco that i rarely take off just not sure of the total weight of them and with returns not being easy i don't want to make a mistake going with the 3.5 when I could Two chain 3mm franco and I know weight wouldn't be a issue, just interested in the 3.5 because the size of it allows to appreciate the design of the franco, happy with the 3mm but it was smaller than I expected but good enough
Hello. I'm looking forward for your next reviews. Do you think it will pair well a heavy link 3.2 mm with the 3 mm Franco instead of 2.5 mm? I plan to buy the Franco 22 inch 3mm with standard Angel pendant paired with 20 inch, 3.2mm heavy link. I have the same neck size as you. I really appreciate your opinion. Thanks.
Glad to hear it! I just posted another that might help. I think the DC Franco will pair very well with the heavy link, at the same length or at different lengths. If it’s the plain Franco, I think it would look good since you’ll have different lengths. It also gives some variation to the type of chains you’ll have on.

Thank you!!
This is a great video. I like how in depth it is.
Thank you!!
Great camera work, thanks for sharing
That heavy link and Franco together looks clean af I’m thinking about getting a Franco myself
Oh I'm dying for this to be back in stock

Such a boss chain 🔥🔥 doesnt need to be bigger to make a statement with the heavy link

@@el_heff4272that will look 🔥 WG is so noticeable yet sleek and reserved, you have the right idea
I’m looking forward to the 18kt 3mm Franco video coming out, been checking to see if it released yet!
Just posted! Sorry for the long wait, ran into all sorts of editing issues

It’s the shiniest chain I’ve ever experienced
I have the same size & karat heavy link in 24" also 3mm d/c franco 18k I wear the heavy link more but the franco is sweet
I got rid of my 4mm Franco because I felt like it was too much for me as a daily wear. Somehow I ended up two chaining 3.5mm Franco’s 😂
Hahaha I hear that, I could def two chain 3mm Franco’s
How’s it too much? That’s perfect size.
@@BlackPanther1SS I had a 4mm 24” and I just couldn’t wear it often comfortably. I feel the 3.5mm @ 20” is perfect for me 🙏🏼
@@itsjustiz 24in is too big bro lol

If you want to keep the heavy link chain shiny and without scratches I wouldn't 2 chain especially with higher purity gold.
You have a video of you showing or unboxing the 3.5MM Franco? Still have that Franco?
Unfortunately not for either! I miss that chain some days
I have a 18kt 3mm Franco from Hawaiiropechains, the color is unreal!
It’s perfect!
Hows the presence of the chain in person?

@@cksdigest plain version it's my go to.I'd like something subtle, diamond cut is to sparkly for me.
Where did you sell your other chains? I might sell mine to get this.
@@ganny61 eBay, they take 15% though which isn’t fun
Great review! 👍
Nice chain
I have 3 Franco’s 2 18k & one 22k. Franco is king even after watching. It holds the color & shine so much better than everything I seen
