Buyer's guide
How to buy a men's Miami Cuban chain
Width, weight, solid or hollow, length and karat for a Miami Cuban, from the 745 Cubans live on this page and a year of sales here
This page is for one decision: which Miami Cuban. Of the 751 chains live here on September 20, 2026, 745 are Miami Cubans, from under 3 mm to a 37 mm showpiece, about half of them 14K. The case is built heavy: about two in three are 10 mm or wider, and roughly three in four weigh 100 grams or more.
So the talk runs width first, then solid or hollow, then length, then karat, with the live listings and the Cubans on this page sold here in the past year as proof. Karat in full, care, package deals, trade-ins and the shipping and return terms live on the men's gold chains guide; this page carries only what is true of a Miami Cuban.
AI Trax on gold chains: two minutes before you buy
Trax's AI jeweler on karat, hollow versus solid, weight, length and the links men buy most, in two minutes.
Read the transcript
Hey there! I'm AI Trax, Trax's AI jeweler. You're on our gold chains page, the collection Trax started with: some links made in Italy, some right here in New York. Two minutes, all reasons.
Karat is how much gold is in the metal. Ten karat wears hardest for the money. Fourteen is the daily-wear pick, color and durability. Eighteen runs richest, and if you have the budget, it's worth it.
Hollow or solid is the next call. Same look, very different gold: our six-millimeter Miami Cuban is twenty-five grams hollow, sixty-four grams solid. And some links are better hollow: a hollow Franco has a beautiful look and can feel even fuller on the neck than a solid one. Every listing says which.
Our chains aren't sold by the gram. But the heavier the chain, the better price per gram you get, and the markup is fair and honest across the board. Want a package deal or a better price? Call, or live chat right from this page.
Length. Eighteen to twenty inches sits at the collarbone and carries a pendant. Twenty-two to twenty-four drops lower and layers. Twenty-six and up is for the big links. We extend or shorten any chain, and our pendants have adjustable clasps that fit even the heavy Cubans.
The ones people buy most: rope, because it sparkles and hides wear. Miami Cuban, the statement. Curb, flat and classic. Franco, square and strong.
Here's why a gold chain is the smartest gold you can wear. It holds its value in the metal, you can trade it in with us any time, and the way the world's economy is going, Trax expects a chain bought today to pay you back. He calls it one of the best buys in jewelry in the past thirty years.
So, pick your karat, hollow or solid for the link you love, and the weight you'll wear. Live chat with a personal jeweler, or call two one two, TRAX, N Y C, for a length, a package deal, or a better price. I'm AI Trax, I'm an AI, and I'm rooting for you.
The case by width: 745 live Cubans by the width on the listing or in the title, counted September 20, 2026
| Width | Live listings | Karats | Build in the title | Grams per inch on the listings | Lengths listed |

| 5 to 8 mm | 96 | 14K 75, 10K 21 | solid 35, hollow 18 (5.5 to 7.5 mm), unsaid 43 | solid 14K: 5 mm 1.92 (8), 6 mm 2.79 (7), 7 mm 3.69 (8); hollow, all karats: 5.5 mm 0.90 (5), 6.5 mm 1.33 (5), 7.5 mm 1.60 (5) | 16 to 36 in; 24 in on 17 listings, 26 on 14, 22 on 13 |

Every cell is counted on its own row over the 745 live Cubans, banded by the width on the listing or, for the five without one, in the title; karat from the title and the metal field, build from the title; grams per inch are medians of solid single-length 14K plain listings, or of hollow listings of all karats, with the number weighed in parentheses, and past 10 mm the figures are two or three 14K listings not marked hollow, so read them as about.
Questions we get at the counter
What is the difference between a Miami Cuban and a Cuban link?
Same family, different cut. Both are curb links, flattened and rounded. In the trade a Cuban link is the looser curb and a Miami Cuban is cut tighter and thicker, so the links lock into each other, the chain lies flat and turns as one piece. In the titles on this page both names are used for the same tight link, nearly every chain live here. The looser curbs have their own page, men's Cuban curb chains.
How wide should a Miami Cuban chain be?
Decide what it is for. Under a pendant, under 5 mm. Worn on its own, 5 to 8 mm: that band took about 46 percent of the Cuban money among the store's 400 best-selling chain titles in the past year. Worn bare as the piece, 8 to 11 mm. Past 11 mm most pieces are one of a kind: most of the Cubans live here are that wide and only a few sold online in the past year, so ask the desk about stock before you order.
How much should I pay for a Cuban link chain?
What the gold weighs, at its karat and the day's gold price, plus the labor in the link, which on a Miami Cuban is more than on most chains. Solid against hollow is the biggest swing: a hollow Cuban of the same width is a third to two fifths of the gold, and priced like it. Read the grams on the listing before the ticket; three in four Cubans here weigh 100 grams or more, so on this page the gram line is the price. For the number on the day you are buying, a jeweler quotes the piece: 212-872-9692 or the live chat.
How much does a 10 mm Miami Cuban chain weigh?
About 8.4 grams an inch in solid 14K, the median of the solid single-length 14K 10 mm listings here; times 24, about 201 grams, and the one 24-inch piece reads 205. The 14K 10 mm listings not marked hollow, two or three at each length, read about 136 grams at 18 inches, 165 at 20 and 220 at 26. Hollow at 10.5 mm runs about 2.8 grams an inch on four listings, about 68 grams at 24 inches.
Solid or hollow Miami Cuban?
Hollow when the width is the point and the weight on your neck is not: the 8 or 10 mm look at about a third to two fifths of the gold. Solid when the gold is the point, or for daily knocks and a pendant with weight to it: a hollow link can cave where a solid one would not, and is harder for a bench to bring back. Fifty titles here say hollow, and about one Cuban in six sold here last year was hollow.
What length Miami Cuban for a pendant?
Eighteen to 20 inches sits at the collarbone and carries a pendant, Trax's line in the video above. The thin Cubans here, under 5 mm, are listed longer, mostly at 22 or 24 inches, where the pendant hangs on the chest. Of the Cubans sold here in the past year with a length on the ticket, 22 inches led, then 20 and 24.
Is a Miami Cuban chain a good investment?
The page can tell you what a piece is; Trax gives his own view of gold in the video above. What a Miami Cuban is, first, is its gold weight and its karat, and both are printed on nearly every Cuban here: roughly three in four weigh 100 grams or more, and the 18K pieces are mostly 13 mm and wider. Trade-ins are covered on the men's gold chains guide.
Do heavy Miami Cubans need a special lock?
In general a wide Miami Cuban closes with a box lock, a square box clasp with a safety latch on each side, and a thin Miami Cuban closes with a lobster clasp. That is how the link is usually made, not a promise about a given piece: which lock a particular chain on this page carries, and whether it can be changed, ask the desk before you order.
Can you make a Miami Cuban to my size?
Yes on length: we extend or shorten any chain, Trax's own line in the video above, and it matters here because nearly every Cuban is one piece at one length. Then ask for the inches you need by live chat or phone. On a wide one-of-a-kind piece, the charge for shortening and how long it takes: ask the desk before you order. Under the refund policy a chain cut or extended for you is final, not returnable: decide the inches first.
