2018 - 50th ANNIVERSARY of the ALHAMBRA

[joanneminnie]

I had run my nails across the YMOP to get rid of dirt. Just checked my piece under the loupe. Still smooth ... hope that helps!

Thank you for your reply! I don’t know what I did wrong, and another motif has lost its shine in the center (signs of wear?)... and I’ve only worn it for a couple of times. I will try to take a picture when I get home. Thanks again!

Looks like the open work alhambra watch in diamonds and pink gold.

You are correct! One of my NM SAs confirmed that this is the open motif watch that is part of the permanent collection.

To my fellow Canadians, I was told by my SA that the guilloche will be in stores mid November. Although I have the YG vintage alhambra, I am very curious about this line, more specifically the earrings.

Right there with you Coconuts40! Can't wait to try the earrings. I think they could really be useful and versatile. I think they will have a real presence on the ear. I have the yg va pave earrings that I love but I think these will have a substantially different look that can justify the purchase.

Thanks for sharing! I wish I could dislike this post! The blue agate stone remains a mystery. My SA at a NM says it could be 2-3 yrs before they get any in. I’m thinking I might not even want it by then ...haha.

Yes, this is just crazy.

Thank you for posting pinklining! The more I see of this collection, the more I am really liking it. It arrives in our boutique in November. Can't wait to try those earrings!

Beautiful! But I do wish they included a single motif pendant necklace.

I agree.
Better for you to be earning interest on your savings rather than holding out for a "maybe".....

I had the same response from the nyc store. Whatever. I may not even want it anymore when it becomes available. There are other pieces I have my eye on.

"As for the Agate, that will be very difficult to get, there’s a 10K deposit required to get on the waiting list and still doesn’t guarantee you’ll get one. It will be part of the collection but that’s down the road. For now, it’s on back order."

I'm sorry, a $10k deposit for what might be a $5k bracelet, what??? So I'll just wait until it becomes part of the collection, which I guess will at least give me time to save since I don't have $10k lying around to be held by a jewelry company just in case I can get a piece that actually costs half that much. Sheesh.

Good on you. Even though I haven’t really fallen for any of the recent alhambra offerings, I can’t believe that a store would ask for a deposit that is double the price of an item and then say you may not even get what you paid for! It’s so crazy! I don’t even think Hermes does that and we all know how crazy their rules are from time for time.

I could not resist the guilloche bracelet and already put a deposit down for it.
