It looks so pretty on you!! I’m also in the US, east coast idk if it makes a difference. I never got around to checking the nyc stores because a different boutique had it. They told me they originally had 3 or 4 but they all sold very quickly

It was supposed to be a limited (re)release when it returned but seems like pieces are still appearing regularly in boutiques? I'd bet that the "limited" factor is why it goes for higher for resale over retail. Now that it turns out to be permanent(?) I'm tempted to get a second bracelet to make a 10 motif with my bracelet 🤔
Still hoping they re-release the 2 motif earrings some day!

I just realized the serial number on my bracelet starts with my initials and my birth year hahaha
I added this one to my collection! I love it so much. Lucky with the carnelian I got 
.
However, I just got it back from resizing and just now found out 1 motif is placed back with the wrong side up (guilloche motif).
I think absolutely no one will see this ever, except for me. Would you leave it or send it back to flip the motif?
I don't know why, but I have 2 5-motif bracelets sized and the other one had the same issue years back (that one I did sent back because I initially resized to 1 cm too snug). I don't know how this happened twice with me. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Tia!

I would send it back for sure, it would bug the hell out of me, even if I'm the only one who can see it.I added this one to my collection! I love it so much. Lucky with the carnelian I got

Is it the link that is upsde down or crooked? The bracelet doesn’t sit flat?
I can’t see it from the picture.
Pls don’t take my question the wrong way ☺️. I just want to understand, what do you mean by the prongs are round instead of elongated? I don’t see them? how you are able to see that the motif was flipped?. I am only asking to learn and because all my bracelets have been resized so I would like to know if I can see what you see in yours?.
TIA
I don't! No worries
. In every alhambra motif (maybe except hammered?) there is a front and backside of the motif. So the motif is placed in the golden beading and the prongs are closed after placing the stone/guilloche motif. See a picture from the website below. 1 side of the motif (back side) has 4 round dots and on the other/front side the prongs are a little longer (side where it is bend to close in the motif). I love the "front" side most, so when I put the bracelet on, I do it in a way there are no twists to the chain and flip all motifs the same way. 1 is misaligned therefore I saw it. Hope it makes more sense? Try inspect your bracelet and see the different 4 prongs on both sides. Hope this helps! If still not clear, let me know!
Sorry for the messy writing, but I did it on my mobile haha. Hope it is easier to see now.
Thank you for the explanation, I never noticed that before. Getting home right now, so I am going to inspect mines. Now I understand and see what you meanI don't! No worries

I’ve been inspecting my guilloche/pace bracelet for 5 solid minutes and still can’t tell the difference from one side to the other. Both sides of the prongs are perfect round pearls.
I don’t have one on me but I can see what explains Luckyme14 on this pic (Post in thread 'New Launch RG Guilloche & Carnelian'

Thanks so much for the explanation @LuckyMe14 because it is the first time I learn that !
