peppers - It is great to know you wear them often. Before I tried them on, I thought they will be too long or heavy. I am quite surprised how wearable the 3 motifs are. I decided that the 3 motif will be my next piece after all. Originally I was thinking the YG version, but WG seems to look better on me.

I think I saw my SA wear YG version of this watch once. It is such an unusual looking watch. What a statement piece!
Where did you find it? It is indeed hard to find a Cadenas watch; I might have seen one or two diamond ones in all the VCAs I've been to but never a classic one like yours.
Very cool! I love it! Enjoy that bold and unique piece and thanks for sharing with us
This is excellent advice. I don't think the jewelry goes out of style, it's just that we change and things that we once loved may no longer be appropriate for us.
WOW! Just WOW! What a great watch! Congratulations on scoring this statement piece. I can see this lasting many decades.

Thank you peppers90!
Thanks for the welcome Beachy!
Hmm, didn't realize they were that wide. I guess i need to make to trip down there to try them. The Houston's NM boutique closes so early on Saturday and i usually can't get there early enough. And they close on Sundays..sigh
Really appreciate you taking the time to measure those Sweet earsstuds Beachy!
I think Beachy didn't realize you were asking about the Sweet Alhambra. The regular Alhambra are 3/4" the jumbo about an inch, whereas the Sweet are smaller. Why don't you call Neiman's and ask them to measure? I'm sure they'd be happy to comply. Ask about jewelry returns, but if purchasing on a credit card perhaps you can order them, try them at home and see if they work for you.
texasbrooke - yes, your comparison pictures were the ones that gave me hope of finding earrings from VCA small enough that would suit me. Thank you for those helpful pics and now the measurements!
POODLGRL Thanks for that great idea POODLGRL! I do that when i'm unsure about the sizing of my clothes. I guess i'm so excited about the prospect of getting a few of these pieces that i can't think clearly
beachy10 Now, that size is more in line of what i'm used to wearing. I've tried different styles and sizes all my life but have always gone back to small studs. They're just more "me". Thanks beachy10!

Great! I have 3 pairs of the sweet earstuds and another on order. I bought the rose gold and retuned them. I bought them when I bought the long rg chain with letterwood pendant, which I also returned. Thought I would LOVE it, but seeing it in person, I realized both were not for me. Bought through Janet Houston nm via text as I always do! They were sent to me and I returned thru my local nm (they shipped it out so no worries with insuring,etc) both with $0 shipping fees. Upon return you get a full refund (not store credit as with vca stores). I, of course, did not simply return it, but exchanged for 2 other pieces, but did get a credit for the price difference. Just an FYI
Just personal preference, but I think the mini studs look better with stone center than in all metal. Somehow i felt like the all metal looked juvenile on me but I don't think that at all with the sweets with stones. Idk...just personal perception/over analyzing! I have the regular size ear clips in yg and don't wear them nearly as much as the sweets.
Hth!
