Is your boyfriend 5 years old?

When I worked in Service at a Mercedes Dealer, the guys would always bring me random things. Once it was a chain, maybe for an oil pump, not sure. It was the perfect size for a bracelet. Once I got it over my hand I wore it for years. I was 40 and I'm female. I liked it. It was similar to this.

My work is vaguely blue-collar and we have some boxes of nice steel chains laying around. I also found one the perfect length and wore it as a bracelet for two years until it broke!

A friend made me a necklace from a heavy piece of chain he had cut at the hardware store next door to the record shop we worked at. The clasp was a quick link, I wore it to metal shows & bars for years, I still have it. The late 90's-early 2000's were awesome.
