Hi everyone, I just received a 0.14 DBTY in platinum from DH for our wedding anniversary, and started obsessively reading through this thread.. Then I saw some of your pics of the 3 stone DBTY! I fell in love!!
Now I'm having second thoughts about the 0.14 and whether it seems a bit too simple, and I'm thinking of returning my 0.14 (within 30 days of purchase) and getting a 3 stone 0.15tcw instead.
Tell me ladies, is the 3 stone too much for daily wear? And will it hold up to being worn 24/7?
Any ladies with a 3 stone DBTY please share pics! TIA!!

This is my 0.14 plat below

I think the 0.14 looks lovely on you. If you are not 100 sure, go back and try on the 3 stones. I personally like the single stone on you. In terms of durability on the 3 stones, don't worry, you can wear it 247. I have several DBTY bracelets in platinum and RG and I have been wearing them 247 for years now.

Thank you for your advice!! I'll be calling up my local store to see if they have the 3 stone DBTY available and go try!

It's 0.3tcw so 0.1ct per stone! The 16" and 18" were actually the same price (strange...) and the SA suggested I pick the 18" since I can take it back to be shortened for free within half a year.
I think I will bring it back to be shortened to 16" soon.. 18" seems a bit too long and grown up for me (I'm in mid to late 20's) :flowers:​

Another option is to add a jump ring so you can wear it at 16 and 18 inches. I like the 18 on you by the way.

That's a good idea! But do I bring it to a jeweller or do it myself? :shocked:
How exactly does it work so I can wear it at both lengths? Sorry for the silly question..

Tiffany should be able to do it for you free of charge. Tiffany had lengthened a couple of my diamond pendants for free, and I asked them to add the jump ring like the one here so I could wear my pendant at 16 or 17 inch.

Yes, they're both the same length - 16 inches. I don't wear them separately - meaning the 2 necklaces are attached to each other when worn. I attach one end of the platinum chain to the opposite end of the YG chain, thus forming 1 very long necklace, wind it around my neck, and then attach the the remaining ends together. I just center the diamonds and position the 0.08 over the 0.37 and voila! It might sound complicated but it works for me (as I do not want to shorten either necklace). It's much easier for me to create the layered effect this way but the need to adjust them from time to time will always be there. :smile:

Would you mind showing me a modelling pic of this? Thanks so much x

Ohhh! I was told it would cost $100 to lengthen a platinum chain 2 inches (I want to be able to wear my necklace at 16" or 18"). So a jump ring would be free? Or does it vary from store to store? Does it matter that the pendant is "fixed" on the chain? (ie would the necklace sit crooked afterwards). Thanks!
