My wife, bless her heart, was thinking of getting me a gold Corvette pendant for our anniversary. Everything we find on line looks small. Anyone know where we can find a "man size" (not Shaq size) pendant of the C5 or C5 Anniversary logo? It needs to be 14K and large enough to go on a heavy (6 or 7mm) chain.

Be sure to get a wide-collar silk shirt and grow out your chest hair.

When the C-5 first come out in '97, small Christmas ornaments were made by Hallmark. They were about 3/4 of an inch long, a torch red coupe. they came equipped with hoops so the wife naturally made pierced earrings from two of them, they bring positive comment whenever she wears them. You can still get these ' ornaments' ocassionally off flea bay.

Now why didn't I think of these two. I could get a red silk shirt and the earrings would match?? No way on the chest hair though, unless I transplant some from my ears. That seems to be growing faster and faster ow.

Default C5 Pendant

Try a local jeweler and have one made to your liking. It won't be as expensive as you imagine. I used to sell jewelry part time in the early '90's. Our jewelry repairman was a true artist. He would make special items for any customer and the price was very reasonable. Check it out. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Congratulations on your anniversary.
