Dude, that is going to be the real thing, I just feel it in my bones!!! When you hit one you bust the hide off of it don't you? That is one awesome looking bracelet, PLEASE keep us posted.
I must live in a wet dream for having items tested, I drive to South Park 3 miles from my house and there is an estate jewelry store there that will test it. I know people well enough in pawnshops 4 miles from my house that they'll test anything I bring in. I have a jeweler at my church if it's something I want to be more hush hush about, he'll test it for me. They'll all test the actual gold karat, the diamonds to see if they are and measure them for size. But of course I rarely find anything worth testing, so it sort of balances itself I guess.

That's too bad, that first jeweler being a jerk. We need to start a list on here somewhere listing all those people so someone doesn't get burned.

man, i would'nt have that one for long after my wife saw it

[Mona Lisa]

Wow, Savant, that's a gorgeous find. Congratulations!

[time4me]

That's a beauty, and I'm sure you'll find the diamonds are real. Looking forward to your update when the stones finally get tested.

Man thats alota bling. How does it look in the light? Does it sparkle?? Also if you have a some magnification glasses look and see if the diamonds have little black specs in them. Those are called inclusions. Most real diamonds have them. UNLESS they are really good clear flawless diamonds then you have a lot more money on your wrists. I have a microscope that I look at my finds with. You had one of those you could tell a little better. You are the man with that find...WOw

BUMP...FOR THE 2ND AND FINAL UPDATE...SEE ORIGANAL POST

[CRACKBADGER]

Real or not,

Absolutely beautiful find and your first to boot. Congrats and dont worry youll get lots more, I can tell you got the bug bad. Congrats again and doesnt matter if they were real or not its ur first find and a beautiful find to top. Oo maybe you should invest in a diamond tester, 45 minutes of gas these days and the price will even out.

Crackbadger out.

Hmmm..they sure looked real, sorry. Anyway its a way cool find and i'm sure your wife or girlfriend would just love to wear it. I would. Still you should feel really blessed to have found it. I have had my detector just since june and haven't found anything but JUNK!!!!!!!! yet. And I don't mean junk jewelry or clad. I mean trash. Nails, shell casings (newer type), pull tabs of course, just stuff like that. At this point I would do the happy dance to find a memorial penny. Getting very frustrating.

But I must confess the only places I have got to try out is my own yard and the local beach. For medical reasons I haven't been able to drive since purchasing my detector so I have just kinda been trying to learn a little in my own yard. I know if I keep at it and find a good place the good stuff will come but (after all the trash) I may have a stroke when it finally does!

Very cool find..........

I wonder if the previous owner knew they were CZ?
Still a real nice find.

I think you did everything right, with not waiting, double checking the opinion, and especially your attitude that you express so well in your 2nd Update..You are ahead of many in the finding department by years. I was hoping for a better outcome for you, but you certainly have had a great experience. It's still a Great find, don't forget.

What I have come to notice on this site over these past few months of reading the posts and their replies, is the absence of envy, and the true friendship and support from everyone. Every great and lesser find I read about, my heart jumps a beat and feel as if I also found it for those few seconds. I thank all for sharing their finds and especially their exhilaration, as it comes through my monitor every day.

May the next swing be your dream.

We are still proud of you, that is one awesome looking bracelet. I think someday diamonds will become unpopular, but gold will never become unpopular. They are making fakes now that will ring the bell as quick as the real deal will, so to me that's probably the beginning of the end of diamonds "percieved" value.
All the value of a diamond is is what someone says it is anyway. DeBeers. Diamonds are Forever! The phrase was coined quickley on the way to a meeting one day. They needed a phrase, so someone thought it up on the spot. I still like comedianRon Whites take on it. "Diamonds, that'll shut her up!"
I, with all of the other md'ers on here celebrate with you your still VERY VERY awesome find! You found a gold bracelet!!
There is no downside to that.

Excellent bracelet!!!
