How to Buy a Tennis Bracelet: The Two-Minute Film

Who makes it, lab or natural, how to read the tag and how it should fit: the store's two-minute film on buying a tennis bracelet.

A two-minute film from the TraxNYC store on 47th Street about buying a tennis bracelet. Its host, AI Trax, is an AI: Trax built him to explain what buyers ask before they buy, and he says so in the film. Here is what it covers.

What the film covers

  • Who makes it. Trax has made tennis bracelets for 20 years. The castings are strong and tight, so the diamonds stay put, in lighter and heavier versions.
  • Lab or natural. Both are real diamonds with the same sparkle. Natural is rarer and costs more; lab gives more size for the money. Neither is wrong, and we mark which is which.
  • Read the tag. A big total carat weight can be many small stones: 4.9 carats can be 70 stones of 7 points each. Look at the size of each stone, the color and clarity, and the gold weight, not only the total.
  • The fit. A tennis bracelet should drape with room for one finger under it, not two. Before it ships, a personal jeweler sizes it to your wrist over live chat or by phone.
  • Returns. What can come back, and how, is in our refund policy.
