Is Frost NYC any good?

Looking at Froat NYC their prices aren’t too bad. Thinking I could maybe remove some of the diamonds if looks too bling and sell them to recoup some costs. Any thoughts? TIA

And then what? just leave holes in between? what would you fill it with?

Personally not for me, but if you like the pieces I would just buy and enjoy it as is.

When i clicked the link, I almost had to dim my screen because it was so bright

That’s a great point. I was thinking synthetic rubies etc to get that rainbow bezel look. More low key than just diamonds

If its not factory, leave it alone. These Rolex's have been ruined.

Edit: These diamonds won't be worth anything.

Do you work there or did they pay you? You recommended them in another thread in the morning, then created this thread asking if they are any good in the afternoon.

I think I have some costume jewelry laying around when my Mom passed away if you want that too.

That’s wack. I recommended them a half hour ago. Maybe some of us enjoy more unique pieces? We aren’t all accountants and doctors

Those diamonds won’t amount to jack squat. Setting looks like crap as well.

Doesn't seem like a good idea. I would stick to factory set diamonds.

Pretty sure that's a negative. You would have to use an independent watchmaker.

Terrible idea.

I have my fair share of diamond jewelry from Jacob & Co, Icebox, IF & Co and if you go to resell any of those diamonds you're not getting anything. Matter of fact you'll be basically paying someone else to have your diamonds. Get something you actually like. I wouldn't bother with any of those cause those are going to some really old Civil War era Rolex DJs.

Can someone explain to me why these iced out watches aren’t so expensive? I was under the impression lots of diamonds equals lots of money. Is is because they’re low quality diamonds/not that many as it appears?? Would never buy one but I was always curious how a pair of diamond earrings could be so expensive but the watches plus the diamonds don’t go for that much more than the watch itself would.
