I absolutely do not cringe - I like it very much. To be honest, it makes them more affordable and available to those of us with more limited funds. Personally I think I would like it better with a more transparent stone rather than the thickly opaque turquoise. I may have a bit of an odd perspective, but I think Tahitians - especially the greys and blacks - look great with silver, even once it picks up a bit of tarnish.
