See, I was poking around the interwebs the other day, you know, your usual Amazon-Burberry-FARFETCH vortex of online shopping doom, and I saw a bunch of stuff. Bracelets, rings, the whole shebang. And it’s…BURBERRY. So it’s supposed to be, like, *good*. Right?
But then you look at it. The check pattern? Iconic, sure. But slapping it on a ring doesn’t necessarily scream “high precision,” does it? It’s more like… “We had some leftover check fabric, let’s glue it to some metal!” (I’m just kidding… mostly.)
And the equestrian knight? Okay, that *could* be high precision. If they’re, like, laser-etching tiny little details into the metal. But honestly, I’ve seen some pretty janky Burberry knockoffs at the flea market that also had equestrian knights on them. Just sayin’.
Then there’s the whole men’s vs. women’s thing. FARFETCH is showing men’s clothing, but the jewelry is for “her and him” according to the Portuguese (Nossa coleção! Fancy!). So, is it gender-specific? Or is it all just, like, “wear whatever you want, dude”? Which, honestly, I’m totally down with. But it adds to the confusion, ya know?
And don’t even get me started on the “Made in Italy” boast. Like, okay, Italy makes good stuff. But does “Made in Italy” automatically equal “High Precision”? I’m skeptical. My grandma makes killer pasta in Italy, but I wouldn’t call her a precision engineer.
Honestly, I think “High Precision BURBERRY Jewelry” is a bit of a stretch. It’s BURBERRY. It’s expensive. It’s probably…decently well-made. But is it *mind-blowingly* precise? I’m not convinced. Maybe if I saw it under a microscope. Or if a tiny robot crafted it in front of my very eyes. Then, maybe.
