Chopard Snobbing Americans

[voce]

I came across this article and wondered what you folks make of this.

I'm not rich enough to consider ever buying Chopard, but I had a positive image of the company before due to their beautiful work; now that I have read the article, not so much...

I've heard many a pejorative... "stupid zucchini" is a new one for me

I honestly have no idea what ethical gold is, and I'm having a hard time sympathizing with celebs (many of whom are, in my honest opinion, the epitome of trashy - that's something Hollywood excels at!) who aren't happy with their compensation for wearing gorgeous bling

sorry if your not a friend of America your not a friend of mine

I'm kind of thinking if the celebs get free high end jewellery should we feel sorry they also don't get paid? On the flip side of that some European brands can be complete snobs, so I'm not sure which side is more credible.

Hi,

I'm sorry, I don't even understand what kind of a lawsuit this is supposed to be. This woman can't sue on behalf of celebrities who get paid slowly. And, I agree, I have not heard of ethical gold either.
Voce, I think you should still admire their jewelry. I don't think this lawsuit is going anywhere.
Lots of Europeans don't care for Americans. "The Ugly American"

By the way, your Ruby is a beauty. You did good!

Not cool. Zero impact on my life though. I can't afford Swarovski, let alone Chopard.
