I did not realize that was your birthday.  That was the day my Mom and Dad married and I was born one year later on Christmas Eve.  You need to start looking for your birthday present.

I got it, but, if I post a picture people will 'get' me.

Oh, ok, you twisted my arm. LOL

I really like cluster rings. I was at a pawn shop looking at DVD's and toured the jewelry case. This one was 1.25ct of diamonds in 14kt gold band below 1,000. Fit well. Bought it. Took it to high end jeweler and had them to steam it bring up the sparkle (hard to capture on camera) old ring from days gone by. Older rings are  prettier I think.

good buy this ring nowdays would be 2 and up even at Sam's

Happy Birthday !

I have this in yellow gold.  I don't wear it a lot because of the magnetic clasp.  Too risky to wear out everyday.  I wore it to dinner the other day and I kept my hands on the table to make sure I glanced down at it.  I kept my eye on it all night!  LOL.  But it's a pretty bracelet.  And am glad I got it. It's the only gold piece I have with the magnetic clasp.  I have quite a few in Ultrafine....and yes, haven't lost any of them yet, butI've found them in my  house on the floor in my closet. The other day I found it inside my jean (when I was pulling it down!) Boom fell on the floor.  How that happened I don't know.  Other times attached to the refridgerator, etc.  I did find the gold clasp strong though.

yes.  I just got it. 

yes.  I just got it.  The clasp seems strong enough.  I was going to return if it wasn't.  It's very risky getting magnetic clasp in gold.  Good chance of losing it.

Both of us will just have to be like mother hens.

I"m tired of asking for help to put on bracelets.

That tool you can buy is no better then just taping down the O ring

and using your left hand (not easy) to get that **** lobster claw to

secure with the 0 ring.

Those BIG senorita clasps are better , but, for some reason everybody

wants to use those slippery lobsters. Tears up my thumb fingernail .

BUT.....lobsters are safe.  They are probably safest fasteners around.  Magnetic are the worse though. I'm left handed though, so the opposite is hard for me. I still have all the magnetic bracelets I ever bought.  Have never (knock on wood) ever lost a magnetic braclet (in the street)  tons of time in the house, which I find with in an hour or so.
