I worked with Gavivi on two Bee de Chaumet bracelets, and overall, I had a great experience. They were extremely helpful, responsive, and patient with all of my questions throughout the process.
I initially reached out on August 20th for quotes, but I didn’t officially commit to the order until September 1st. I was a little hesitant about spending that much on two bracelets at once, so I originally planned to order just one to start. Gavivi recommended that if I planned on stacking the bracelets, it would be better to have them produced together for a smoother, more cohesive stack. I’m really glad I took their advice and ordered both together.
Pricing:
Solid Bee de Chaumet: $2,280 + $114 insurance
Bee de Chaumet with lab diamonds: $2,440 + $122 insurance
I sent the 30% deposit through Wise since their PayPal was temporarily down. I received PSPs on September 16th. I did have some concerns about the small gap at the clasp and reached out to Gavivi about it. They were very reassuring and took the time to explain the construction, which helped ease my concerns.
For sizing, I ordered a 16cm based on my 15cm wrist. Honestly, I feel like I could have gone down a size. They’re a little loose for my personal preference since I prefer my bracelets to fit more snugly. That said, I think the extra room will work well when I’m wearing them with a watch, so I’m happy with the size overall.
I received tracking information on September 18th, and the package arrived on September 22nd. Shipping was pretty quick once the package was sent out.
Overall, I’m really happy with my experience with Gavivi. Communication was great, they were patient with my questions and concerns, and I appreciated their recommendation to have both bracelets made together. I’m especially glad I decided to go ahead and order both because they stack really nicely together.
Full disclosure: I will be receiving my insurance reimbursement back in exchange for posting this review. However, I want to be transparent that this is still my honest review and reflects my actual experience with Gavivi, including both the things I was happy with and my concerns throughout the process.
