Where can they be found now?  Does anyone know what the Ripka TSV for Thursday 8/27 will be?

Doesn't anyone consider back to back bracelets with a dangle charm excessive?  I bought the Byzantine one with the heart charm (isn't even paid for yet).... and now Ripka has another TSV Bracelet only this one has an initial charm.  I would have preferred earrings or a necklace but I'm not excited by another bracelet..... Woman Sad

Many commented the last bracelet tsv wasn't weighty enough- mine is advanced ordered till next month so I don't know personally. It is over 20 grams and that's usually substantial in the sterling silver world!

 

Perhaps the new tsv was in response to those complaints?

The Byzantine has a nice weight, not too light.  It isn't heavy but it wasn't disappointing to me.  I love it and wear it every day.   Maybe they got a bucketload returned back because of the weight?  If so then you're right, perhaps doing another one that's larger with more weight would satisfy those buyers that returned theirs....  Woman Happy

I  got and returned the last heart charm TSV, didn't think it was weighty or up to the usual JR standards. I just ordered this, hopefully it will live up to all the boasting from the venders

I purchased the Byzantine also, in gold, I love it and wear it as often as I can next to JR chronograph watch. That's enough weight for me on one wrist. However, I will not be investing in today's TSV because silver prices have dropped and I do not see the value in purchasing this piece.
