Can't decide, which bracelet?

[aqua08]

Having a hard time deciding between the DBTY bracelet in either the 3 stone in sterling silver or platinum, or 5 stone in sterling silver (not looking to spend as much as platinum would cost in 5 stone). This will be an every day piece that I hope to be able to dress up or down. Would love to hear your thoughts/feedback especially if you own one (or more ) of the bracelets I'm between.

Platinum is better for durability, as it’s less likely to stretch or break. And platinum won’t tarnish. I feel if platinum is within budget, then that’s the better option 10 out of 10 times.

Silver is softer and weaker, so it’s more delicate. The links stretch more. The clasp is less secure. Also, for everyday wear, silver reacts to all sorts of chemicals in perfume, lotion, etc. Which means it will tarnish. I have a few silver pieces, but I stopped wearing them and moved onto PT and WG because the maintenance is simpler.
