I absolutely adore mine

Oxy bracelet looks particularly good with gold charms/clips/safety chain.
Have read about the bracelet changing color back to dirty-ish silver but never seen the pictures.
Read somewhere in this thread that a forumer has had hers for 2 years and it still look good. Not sure if she wears it daily though. It all depends on your body chemistry, how you care for it and store it.
From what I gather, certain individuals' body chemistry tend to cause faster change on the charms be it silver or oxidised silver.
Sweating, water, perfume and certain chemicals can also cause charms to tarnish, so avoiding all this would keep it looking new longer.
If you store the charms in ziplock bags and give them a polish once in a while, that will definitely help.
I'm pretty OCD about my things so I thought about it long and hard before getting one but now that I have it, wouldn't change it at all!
Maybe other forumers who also have oxidised bracelets can share their thoughts

HTH
PS You can also reoxidised it with boiled eggs, if that helps
