Adamans 6mm Diamond Tennis Chain vs 5mm Diamond Tennis Chain

Both are 6mm-class tennis chains from Adamans with PVD plating and a lifetime warranty, so the choice comes down to width and stone grade. The 6mm uses VVS1 simulants, passes a diamond tester and has 945 ratings at 4.9; the 5mm is narrower, heavier per length (45g at 18") and has more ratings at 4.8. Buy the 6mm for maximum shine and the higher stone grade; buy the 5mm for a lower-profile chain with a longer size range and a sturdier feel.

  • Choose the 6mm Diamond Tennis Chain if you want the bigger, brighter look and the higher-grade VVS1 stones that pass a diamond tester.
  • Choose the 5mm Diamond Tennis Chain if you want a narrower, heavier chain with more length options and a more understated profile.

Questions and answers

Which is better for everyday wear?
The 5mm. It is narrower and owners say it sits flat and doesn't flip. The 6mm is the bolder pick if you want the chain to be the focal point.
Which has better stones?
The 6mm. It ships with VVS1 simulants standard and passes a diamond tester. The 5mm uses VS-grade simulants, and you can request Si1-2 or VS1-2 on either.
Which lasts longer?
Both use PVD vacuum plating and carry a lifetime warranty, so durability is close. The 5mm has more reports of tarnish and clasp wear, but most owners describe it as solid and sturdy.
Is the 6mm worth stepping up to?
Yes if shine and stone grade matter most to you. The 6mm gives a wider face and the higher stone grade; the 5mm gives you more length choices and a heavier feel per inch.
Do either turn skin green?
Both are listed as safe for sensitive skin and won't turn green or cause irritation. That applies to the PVD-plated versions; solid gold options avoid plating wear entirely.
Can I get solid gold instead of plated?
Yes. Both come in 14K plated standard, with solid 10K, 14K and 18K available. Solid gold removes the tarnish risk that plated chains carry.
