Don’t Even Think Of The NHL Players

from Harry Glinberg of Harry C. Glinberg Jewlers (as told to Alyson McNutt English) of ESPN Page 2,

“We customize a lot of pieces. Deron Williams liked a diamond- encrusted Cartier watch he saw somewhere, so I bought a plain one and did the diamond work myself. It saved him tens of thousands. Marquis Daniels had the most unusual request: He wanted a necklace that looked like an Orlando Interstate 4 sign. It’s 120 carats of diamonds on three massive chains. That got me a lot of business.”...

“NBA players go for the flashiest pieces. Not more expensive or better quality necessarily, just flashier. In football, receivers and safeties like loud items. Baseball players are more conservative. I don’t work with NHL guys, but I’d love to. I could make diamond teeth.”

more if you wish but no hockey talk…

This is definitely brand new information. I never would have guessed that. So NBA players like flashy but trashy jewelry, huh? Who woulda thunk it.  tongue rolleye

They like their jewelry like their women.

(Sorry, but it was a big, slow hanging curveball and I had to say it!)
