My grandparents and their siblings loved jewelry and thus (being the only grandchild on both sides of the family), I was very fortunate to inherit a bunch. I acquired them far too soon but I wear a gold wedding band and a single stone diamond ring that belonged to my grandfather's older brother and sometimes a gigantic square pinky ring that has its 1"x3/4" top surface covered in pave set diamonds with larger emerald cut stones in the corners. Perhaps surprisingly, the latter came from my Irish and not Greek side of the family. I also wear a gold byzantine style cross and chain that I purchased here in Cairo. The Karat stamp is in Arabic. I don't wear a watch as I've always believed that the ultimate luxury in life is not needing to give a Tinker's D*&M what time it is. I do however have my grandfather's (and his brother's) pocket watches and treasure them.
Best,
