Default Chopard Happy Diamond - Safe to wear in Shower?
I just got my first Chopard Happy Diamond Pendant. The pendant I have is small and I wear it as a daily piece of jewelry which I don't bother taking off. I would appreciate your advice whether it can be worn in the shower/hot tub/swimming, as I am concerned that water might leak into the glass casing. TIA!

Congratulations on your first Chopard! I don't think they are safe to wear when swimming, though I sometimes wear Happy Diamonds pendant in the shower and ring when washing hands and nothing happened to them, but I heard that they are not water proof. So better take it for to be on the safe side.

i definitely wouldnt.

i have two necklaces with pane glass like that.. and got condensation in them.. and ever since then.. the pieces inside are stuck to the glass and dont move anymore. one happened more then 5 years ago.. and it was never normal again.

It's too beautiful to take a chance of ruining. I would not wear it showering!

You're not supposed to wear it anytime you are submerged or exposed to lots of water (washing dishes, swimming, shower, bath). The crystal turns black. I had the crystal overlay replaced in my ring after way too long (they recommend doing it after a few years anyway) and now it looks much better.

Thank you so much for your advice! I will keep it out of water. Too bad for a lazy girl like me :)
