You and I are on the exact same page, if you want the diamonds not to fade get real diamonds! It won't cost a penny more, I don't mean natural diamonds, but moissanite. Lab made carbon diamonds that test as real on any tester, gives off a gen reassurance when you test in front of your friends. I recently bought one from timerepz.com but was hugely dissapointed it wasn't moissanite like they advertised, other than that the watch looks amazing and is good quality, they're US based and ship fast. And you can customize the watch the way you want it. Mine was two tone rose gold with Arab numbers. I'm still looking for a trusted dealer that won't falsely advertise. I want moissanite diamonds, some reps I've bought from puretime etc. Have actual moissanite on the bezel so i have hope.
