FYI if you are in or near Paris

@Danimal506 My clasp on my A curbchain bracelet has mysteriously opened a few times. It is probably catching on my shirt or jacket cuff. One time I was reaching into the fish section of the supermarket the bracelet fell into the cooling system - I was freaking out, but found an employee to open it up and retrieve my bracelet.

I have never had a problem with the clasp on my A curbchain necklace. I also have never had a issue with the PaM, but I have a long chain that I just lift over my head, so the clasp gets very little wear and tear. It is currently a pretty tight fit.

I prefer the model 10 on my wrist, it never pops open under my jackets. a

@Danimal506 The problem is for any GAH pendants with a smaller loop for pendant. I have the small GAH St Christopher medal with sapphires and I had to use a GAH ball chain because the loop is just to small to travel freely over the PaM chain.

You can see how it "pinches" on the PaM, but has plenty of room on the ball chain.

@RobeOfTheMagi I have 17mm wrist with 15 link and it is very loose, 14 links should be a comfortable/loose fit. GAH sizing is for a very loose fit. For example, if you look at the IH sizing guide, they recommended 14 link with 17mm wrist.

@AdamJ that mixed motif bracelet is fire

@Brandrea That one is a banger

@indigostiff I met Savannah in Paris, she is a cool cat. She fitted me for one of their suede over shirts.

@kaacy1721 They have some new cuffs that are very cool and in all the standard finishes (smooth, desert, goosebumps, etc). I tired them on in the Paris showroom. They are releasing in the spring.

@Go-For-Chill I tried the new larger ball chain on at the Paris show room. Seemed like double the size of the current larger ball chain size. You could just wear it by itself. My wife really liked it when she tried it on as a stand alone necklace also.

@Oaktavia The A size is perfect for a necklace. It "seems" much thicker as a necklaces than when it is on this wrist.

@pechelman I think the length is measured when the clasp is closed end-to-end. If I measure my 18" with a string, it is exactly 18" when closed, the larger allowance when it is straight takes into account the loss of length with the loop and clasp are joined.

@deek That is absolutely crazy. I had a 925 silver bowl by my front door for storing my keys that took 10 years to get that black.

@oblivion.sila Everyone has different preferences. The recommended fit from GAH is pretty loose in my experience.

For example my wrist is just a bit over 16cm where I normally wear a watch, but 17cm "down low and snug" as the recommended measuring on their sizing charts. So I have always gone with 17cm. This results in a loose bracelet with a lot of slack. I have a few photos for you to see the recommended GAH fit.

So you could definitely size down one size and be fine, but after that it could get a bit tricky.

@Oaktavia One option is to combine 2 A size Curb Chains. I have an 18" A size necklace that I sometimes combine with my 17mm A size bracelet (~7.5") that wears just a bit longer that my 24" pop-lock or my 24" Pequeño A Mano

The price of silver has seen 3x increase in the past year, USD $31.31 to $87.65.

GAH will be here in Paris at their showroom during Mens Fashion Week later this month. I look forward to seeing what is new.

The Model 10 size B in 18kt white gold is the ultimate stealth move
