<p>[QUOTE="Herons, post: 3381608, member: 18078"][ATTACH=full]301106[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]301107[/ATTACH] I bought this bracelet some time ago in a second-hand shop, but now want to sell it. I don't want to mislead anyone, so I am asking if it can be determined if it is fake or not. I did see one of the same design advertised some years ago on the web and from what I recall it was being advertised as the "real thing". Unfortunately I can no longer find that reference or photos of a similar bracelet on the web, though there are many with the same toggle style clasp. First of all, does anyone recognize the style/design? Each link has "Gucci" and "925" clearly stamped on it. It shines up nicely with silver polish, though I think it is fairly old as the silver surface looks slightly worn (minute scratches). What raises a flag for me is that it does not have the "R" in a circle mark, nor does it say "made in Italy" anywhere as far as can see. I don't know if all older Gucci bracelets were marked this way or not. Gucci or not, I am going to assume as it is clearly marked "925" that I can advertise it as silver. I don't want to under value it, nor over value it and I sure don't want to advertise it as Gucci if it is not. Any comments or thoughts would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
