The choice between a 6mm and 10mm moissanite Cuban chain is mainly a scale decision. After width, compare the listed length and plated color so the chain fits the position and visual weight you want.

A buying-check lesson from J.I. the Prince of NY
In GQ's On the Rocks video with J.I. the Prince of NY, released November 6, 2020, he advises new buyers not to rush and to pay attention to quality. The practical lesson is to compare documented width, length, material, stone, and finish before choosing a chain.

6mm or 10mm?
Choose 6mm for a narrower line
The 6mm option keeps the Cuban-link pattern visible with less width than the 10mm option. It can work as a focused solo chain or leave more visual room around another piece.
Choose 10mm for a bolder line
The 10mm option creates more link width and should be treated as the focal line. If you add another necklace, separate the lengths clearly.
How length changes the result
Measure a necklace that already sits where you like. Use 18in or 20in for a higher placement and 22in or 24in for a lower drop, while allowing for individual neck size and clothing.
Buying checklist
- Choose 6mm or 10mm before deciding the length.
- Compare 18in through 24in with a known necklace.
- Select the plated color that fits your existing rotation.
- Confirm that moissanite, not lab-grown diamond, is the listed stone.
- Leave clear spacing if another chain will be worn.
