A chunky chain that finishes the fit

Questions and answers

Is $139.99 a good price for this bracelet?

It is the only new price listed, at Kay Outlet as of November 5, 2026, so there is no lower competing offer to compare. Comparable stainless steel Franco bracelets from mall jewelers often run $100 to $200, so it sits mid-range.

Will the black finish wear off?

Ion plating is bonded to the steel and holds up better than paint or thin electroplating, but the clasp and link edges take the most rubbing. Expect years of wear before any silver shows through with normal use.

What size wrist does 8.5 inches fit?

An 8.5-inch bracelet fits wrists roughly 7.5 to 8 inches around, with the chain hanging slightly loose. Measure your wrist with a tape and add about half an inch for a comfortable fit.

Is it solid or hollow?

The listing describes a solid chain, so the links are not hollow tubes. That makes it heavier and more durable than hollow Franco chains at lower prices.

Can I wear it in the shower or pool?

Stainless steel handles water well, but chlorine and salt can dull the black plating over time. Rinse and dry it after swimming to keep the finish even.

What comes in the box?

You get the bracelet in KAY packaging, typically a box suitable for gifting. No polishing cloth or extra links are listed.
