Now here's some next level shit. The add alone makes me want to buy something.

This is the best rockstar/biker style jewelry I've ever seen. It's getting pricey for my bling budget, but still doable. I'll buy one of these rings, but can't decide which.

   

   

This pendant gets and honorable mention.

   

For a necklace I'll pick up something from Bico Jewelry:

Mixx turned me onto them. Thanks Mixx!

I roll with some Italian cats (I work in tailoring and formalwear) that flash mad jewelry though. Flashiest bastard I've ever met was an 83 yr. old Italian.

I'm of the same mind. I currently live in a pretty dangerous city/country. I don't wear a watch at all and refuse to carry a smartphone (so I can't check my email like it's crack) becuase it's too much value to carry on me in the streets. Also carry almost no cash. Everything on the card. I'm like the anti-gangster!

If being mugged wasn't an issue I'd wear a really nice watch (say something by A Lange and Sohn), and no other jewelry.

None of them help to get you laid, if any did it would be the snoopy.

Most guys you see are only wearing watches, which is why I'm currently not wearing them anymore. If a girl ever asks why I don't, my response will be "I don't need to keep track of time, the world waits for me".

Because guys don't typically wear jewelry, or do it poorly, I want to don something unique to stand out from the rest. I like to push the fashion envelope, which is why I'll wear all the pieces shown while suited down. Bold is key.

Yeah and you're probably a guy who works at PetCo for $8.50 an hour and lives in your Mom's basement.

Don't hate just because you probably don't have the paper to rock something nice, like an Omega, Breitling, or Rolex. If you saw me out wearing my Seamaster Planet Ocean, and told me that only girls wear watches, I'd laugh in your face.

Your wrist probably couldn't even support the weight.

Simple, yet effective.



It's much larger in person, probably 2 x 4 inches.

What's funny is I got it as a gift from my ex... and my current girl got me a new belt buckle over the holidays...

That stuff looks great AliB, a bit out of my budget though. I wonder if I could find something similar (or used) on Ebay.

Here's a cheaper version of the star ring. I may just buy it to save a bunch of bank and be done with it.

Here's a fashion tip. Wear what you like and have the swag to pull off. When you reach a heightened sense of style, girls will approach you because of it. This gives them an "in" to come to you. Just like we look for a reason to ramble, so do they. And in the end, this is what we all should be aiming for, which is them to do the work.

I speak from years of experience dressing out of the norm and having girls approaching because of it. I spend the same care and attention to my wardrobe as I once did the Dress Blues I once wore so proudly.

That ring would make a nice brand on someones forehead. Get it and let me wear it at Aprils DDs lounge

Go to a jewelry store and have them size you up. Or order on of these.

I wear only two pieces - a nice watch and a Zuni turquoise bracelet like the one above. The watch cost $5k, the bracelet $300...and you can only guess which of the two gets the vast majority of compliments from the ladies (and not just in LA) - yep, the bracelet!
