The YELLOW gold DBTYs do have a much thinner bezel (as do the platinum DBTYs), which is why -- so my theory goes -- the yellow and platinum DBTYs "poke" the wearer above a certain size. The SS and RG DBTYs, on the other hand, do have a noticeably thicker bezel, such that, no matter what the size, one does not feel poked while wearing them. (I have tried the SS, RG, YG, and platinum DBTYs -- and have always ended up returning the YG and platinum necklaces for this reason.) But that is subjective; most people would probably be quite happy to own a DBTY necklace in YG or platinum. Two caveats: 1) Elsa Peretti has just come out with a very large RG DBTY: .44 and .54, I believe; these necklaces are an entirely different animal vis a vis the bezel, which -- at least from the photos on the Tiffany website -- appear to be thinner like that of the YG and platinum DBTYs. 2) I do own -- and love -- a pair of .36 platinum DBTY earrings, which I wear almost every day.

I have a YG DBTY necklace...pics are posted earlier in this thread and I have never had an issue with it poking. Sometimes I forget I even have it on. This is a non issue. At least for me.

I have a platinum one. I am not sure of the size I am thinking around .14 and it pokes me. I would wear it constantly and got used to the feel of it but it would definitely poke me.

Despite having the .03, .07, and the .17 in almost the same lengths as my beloved RG DBTY necklaces, the SS DBTY necklaces don't seem to layer easily and nicely on me; I have to work at it, and even then they tangle -- which doesn't often happen with my RG DBTY. I find I can really only wear 3 necklaces at a time without them tangling up. So I do tend to pick and choose which two or three SS DBTY necklaces to wear on a given day. But that's just my experience; others may never encounter that issue.

I think you hit the nail on the head: the RG makes the diamond stand out, doesn't it? There's just something special about the RG DBTY necklaces. I've been thinking about getting this RG DBTY necklace to add to my collection: http://www.tiffany.com/shopping/Ite..._params=s 5-p 1-c 287465-r -x -n 6-ri -ni 1-t

That way, I won't have to put three necklaces on (see the picture below) in the morning if I'm in a hurry.
