TraxNYC carries men's .925 sterling silver chains in rope, Miami Cuban link, Franco, mariner, moon cut, anchor, paper clip, curb, box and rolo styles, in several lengths. Rope, Miami Cuban, Franco, moon cut and anchor each come in a run of widths, so you can match a chain to a pendant or wear it on its own.
TraxNYC has sold from 47th St in New York's Diamond District since 2004. If you need help picking a width or length, ask us before you order. When you are ready to step up to gold, browse our men's gold chains.
Looking for a thick or big silver chain? The silver Miami Cuban runs from 2 mm up to 9.5 mm, the mariner reaches 8 mm, and the rope goes to 20 mm and 25 mm. Most chains here are listed as .925 sterling silver, and a few Cubans, rolos and a flat mariner are made in palladium silver. No title here says plated, so a silver necklace for men from this case is real silver all the way through; the 925 silver chains guide shows how to check one.

Do you carry a silver Cuban link chain for men?
Yes. The sterling silver Miami Cuban runs from 2 mm to 9.5 mm, from a light everyday chain to a heavy one worn on its own, and every Cuban listing gives its grams.
Is there a silver cross to hang on the chain?
Yes. Every silver crucifix pendant and cross is on one page, some sold as a set with a Franco, Cuban or moon cut chain.
Is a sterling silver chain pure silver?
Not quite, and on purpose: sterling is 92.5 percent silver, and the rest is mostly copper, which makes it hard enough to wear as a chain. That is why it is marked .925.
Can I see a silver chain before I buy it?
Yes, at the showroom on 47th Street in New York's Diamond District. Some chains are made to order, so tell the desk which ones you want to see before you come.
