So I've always wanted one, and the recent threads just renewed my yearning. So I've been trolling eBay looking for a good one in my size. Man-hands size 60!
Found one last week. Watched it drop $100.00. Bid at the very last minute.
It came with all the boxes, pouch and documentation.
According to the papers it was purchased in Boston in '08.
It's the 2.9 one, and it is a bit thicker than I'm used to, but I really like it. Right now it is hot and humid
( surprise it's Florida) so my fingers are a bit swollen, so it looks squished but it spins fine,not tight.
I love it with my 5 stone,but need to get used to the real estate it takes up. Finger stretching ideas anyone?
It needs to be polished and I might like to re rhodium the white band. But that means sending it to NYC. Our Cartier doesn't have a jeweler on premises!!!!
So my right hand has all sorts of new bling.
My poor pinky has a bit of an arthritis flare right now so it looks funky;(

It looks stunning on you! I love it with the 5 stone band.
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

Thanks April Baby . I'm really liking it. I'm already dreading sending it in to be polished.
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

Double post!
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

Lovely!!!!! Welcome to the Cartier club!!!!!!! Wow that sounded a bit more pretentious then I meant but you get the idea!
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

I love that size on you! Is each band 2.9mms? Perfect stacked with your stone. I want one too!!
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

Gorgeous!! You can't go wrong with a Trinity ring. Congrats!
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

It's really so lovely - especially with your five stone.
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

:appl: YA!! a deal and in your size WITH box and papers! Woohoo!! It looks great on you, especially with your five stone!! I just picked one up myself and I was thinking that maybe Cartier does not rhodium plate the WG. I had that revelation when I was playing/rolling/flipping it around, that the warmth of the unplated wg was very appealing and I completely understood, then and there, why Yssie always goes unplated WG! lol!!

It looks great, Elisateach, and pairs nicely with your "oops" ring ;))

Thanks. Actually I went to the Cartier website and not only to the polish and repair but they will re rhodium the white gold. For a fee of course.
I spoke to the NY store and I'm shipping it to them tomorrow. :appl: :appl:

yes it is the 2.9mm per ring. A bit bigger than I am used to but it is comfy
Go on get one, join the club!! :love:
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

Very pretty! It looks so nice with your other jewelry. And you got something of a deal. Congratulations.

Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

I love both your new rings, Elisa! The 2.9mm looks even bigger on you than mine does on me! My own 2.9mm looks more like the Classic as I've got smallish fingers, but when I saw your pics I was totally convinced that you had the wider bands in the Classic size. It's great to pay for the smaller one but get the larger look, isn't it! I think that's possibly my favourite thing about mine!

Also, it looks amazing with your ring.

And I love the ruby one, too! :love: I love all your jewellery and it all looks amazing on you. (Just remembering that thread with the unforgettable title, when you got the colourful bezel necklaces!)
 
Re: New to me Cartier Trinity!!!

Love it!!! :love: It looks great on your hand and I really like it paired with your 5 stone - congrats! :appl:
