Thanks for asking but frankly for me, I wouldn't be interested. Either for the neck or otherwise. Too much bling. Others might so here is a TTT for your trouble.

You do nice work....just not for me.

Not for me either, but I'm not into wearing things like that. But, your samples look well made.

I'm sure there is a niche market for that type of thing, but I'm not sure the niche is vette owners. just my .02. Regardless, best of luck in your venture.

Sadly; the market audience for that type of product... usually can't afford a Corvette (yet).

Not 4 me.

Just a note - if you attempt to use the C5, Corvette, or any logo be aware that GM takes this very bad without payment of $$$$$$$$$$$$ to them.

Not a wise thing to use other people's (corporations) trademark without consent...

I have to agree with the rest. Not for me, I would never wear that. But if you look in catalogs like Ecklers and Mid-America they always have Corvette related jewelry, so they must be selling it.

You could probably contact "Nieman Marcus" for sponsorship. They could put them in their Christmas Catalog 2007 for $1,500.00 apiece!
