      It's tarnish–a sulfur reaction in the metal. Happens to all silver, but it's worse on some people because their skin speeds up the chemical reaction. You can tell you have good silver if it says .925 on it, but more silver=more tarnish. (yahoo answers answer)

            ^why is it so black?…

            maybe it's also because i live in singapore which is very humid and hot. plus i perspire quite alot under the crazy heat here. that probably contributed alot.

            and yes, it's kinda black-ish on some area. still unsure if i should send them for cleaning or let it aged naturally. 😕

                thanks mate. honestly the bracelet is amazing! so glad to have 1 on my wrist.

                if you own other bracelets, you'll learn to appreciate the tiffany style clasp. it's so easy to put them on and take them off. and this design is so unique that you can NEVER find anywhere. i saw a couple of chain bracelets on ebay but those just can't compare to this. those clasp don't look rugged and doesn't match a chain bracelet.

                i could write alot more on the pros of this bracelet. and the only con is, it's quite expensive. but then again, it's so limited and not mass-produced so definitely it's gonna cost more isn't it? 🙂

                  yeah i kinda love the way it looks now. looked beaten and thrashed. i'll just see how it goes. maybe i'll clean it next time.

                        looking at the clasp and all, I somehow would be affraid to lose this badass bracelet while wearing it to go out on the weekend or to other occasions where a bit of moving and shaking is involved!
                        so what do the guys think…is this an easy piece to lose?

                        @Giles - how many of those bracelets are floating around btw.?
                        I guess the answer is: "the fekk I know!"...still thought I should ask 😃

                            Finn mate what are u doing losing your stuff hehe i believe risk of losing on thicker wirsts is less than on skinnies like me. I combine with leather bracelets atm no prob and you should hear it fallen to the ground unless ya drunk mate 😉 just dont wear when Party hard 🙂

                                  I'm going to buy this when I get my motorbike licence this year; it seems like a fitting occasion even if not particularly momentous.

                                  For additional perspective on fit, I was lucky enough to have this beast on my wrist today and on an 18.5cm (7.4") wrist it can be clasped but is pretty firm. I'll be opting for an extra 2 links like G's.

                                      Quite impossible unless someone chops off your hand.

                                            Sick silver jewelry is made in New Mexico and Colorado by REAL native Americans too. That Goro dude got taught in the west and now taxes shit in Japan. Soundz like hype to me.
