Even the $200+ pens have a hard time distinguishing high quality moissanite from diamond... You're supposed to put the stone in the metal piece that came with your pen. It should have come with a metal rectangle. It is a stone holder.
@@thegreekgod2288You are correct indeed. It's origin are from a meteorite. It's much more rare than diamond. It is also tougher since it isn't so hard to where it becomes brittle (major issue when it comes to chipping), won't shatter if you give it a little smack with a hammer (you can find videos of diamond shattering with a little hammer drop), and doesn't have cleavage lines, on which it can cleanly break all the way through on.
@WilliamBang aliexpress has really good jewelry despite what people say they say its always bad quality yet thats a misconception it's only bad quality if you buy from a bad seller the higher the quality moissanite the more faster it passes the diamond tester same thing with diamonds the higher the better yet aliexpress isn't only China you can buy from many different countries
naw i don't have the link anymore but you can probably find it easy on aliexpress. It was only $5 in Canadian probably like 3-4 in USD. It's the normal regular round cut one. The other special cuts are much more expensive
@@WilliamBang The 1st green light on the tester is just a test light. If it says to set it to 2, you should see 3 green lights. I have that same tester and that's what the directions said that came with mine. Good video though.
@@tiffaneywilson7032 Oh I see what you are saying. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. Yes, I've heard that from another video but I think their detector is a fake, not the genuine one. Most of them have a very similar tester but if checked against the original Made in Japan, Culti, it's a knockoff with no logo or Made in Japan. Maybe it has something to do with that? Anyways, from my experiments. It's actually better to set it lower. That's because Sapphires and other stones also give off conductivity readings, the higher you set it, the less it needs to travel up in the bar. If you set the bar to 7 or 8. It literally takes a second for it to beep. However, 2 or 3 bars would probably not make much of a difference. CZs don't conduct anything, so that's easily detected.
before doing a video it always a good idea to know how to read /use the equipment that will be shown. so, you don't end up looking like a 🤡 that don't know what he is talking about. There a big jewelry community on CZcams and some follower/viewers can be VERY opiniated or even mean. i keep seen people fighting over natural vs lab created or metal purity ect .Anyway when it goes to the red, it real. Only a very fancy stone detector will read moissanite instead of passing has diamond.
That is correct they put coating on theses aaa cz stones and call it moissanite this is barely passing and goes slow on meeter mine always shoot up quick like diamond
Nah. There is more fire in moissanite than CZ, moissanite looks like disco ball in the light, alot of rainbow colors. I've seen CZ they don't do that and they looo glassy. You can really distinguish it just by looking at it.
fun fact regardless of price and quality of moissanite the moissanite will sparkle more than any diamond

They passed bro
Can you share where you got them from please?
😂 u used the tester wrong 😂 💀
That's real Moissanite
I tested all my jewelry holding mine and had no problem. However, mine aren't loose.
they are cultivated, and were invented in ca 1890, they use a crumb of a diamond to produce moissanite
I see
@Thegreekgod That's what I read too!

Not they don’t use a crumb of a diamond to make moissanite it’s a completely different stone
need to bring the tester to 3 bars to 4 bars for best result for me
Hello, Can you put the links so we can buy it.
Red means passed
if its beep it means its pass
It passed bro
they are glass with carbon coating.
Who told u?
Where you get it from
Aliexpress LOL
This is the deception they use but good stuff know you know the truth

Can you remember where you purchased? Need link!! ❤

He didn't put the tester on the correct setting.
What makes you think that?

@@tiffaneywilson7032 The back says 0.6ct and up/ room temperature 10 degree c to 30 degree c to set it at 2. My room is around 20 degree Celsius
@@WilliamBang Yes, you set it to show 2 green lines and you should see 3 because the 1st green line doesn't count.

U not supposed to hold the stones but if it’s in a prong setting it doesn’t matter because your not holding the stone.
Doesn't seem to make a difference.
@@WilliamBang It does because the heat from your hand transfer through the stone can give the wrong readings

some people say these are plated in moissanite or diamond to make it pass the test but eventually the plate will fall off

"I don't know", "I don't know", "I don't know"... phew, then why do you make this kind of videos??!
Lol what?
