UPDATE: BREAKING NEWS! The bracelet I found is a fake. On advice of a fellow member Josh, I had the bracelet checked out. I took it to the Cartier Jeweler here in town and while they said they would not evaluate as either Fake or Real the manager took me to one of the displays and let me pick up a bracelet the same size and design. There was no comparison mine was clearly a fake. Although I was told it was a very good fake. Everything was there, hallmarks serial number and the like. The tip off was weight and when compared to the real one there was no doubt which was fake.
My apologies for getting everyone excited. I'll try harder next time.
I haven't posted anything in a while due to not really having anything to post. Anything exciting anyway. Well that has changed the last couple of days.
As a primer I find a 10K class ring but it has nothing but Josten makers mark and no way to say what school it comes from. This 10K ring was enough to lighten my mood as I haven't found much the last couple of years.
Then today I half-heartedly I decided to hit the beach at 5:30AM. Tide was out and waves we not huge so I decided to work the wet sand and water line. After an hour I get a crappy signal on my NOX. Since targets are scarce I dig everything. Out pops a half bracelet with Cartier markings. Its either fake or I'm damn lucky so I start a spiral search for the other half-bracelet and a couple feet away I get lucky and find the other half.
I wait till I get home to determine just what I found. Everything checks out its a broken but all pieces accounted for, Cartier Love Bracelet
Nice to get back in the saddle again!
