i have both alphagents and the RPF version of the cufflinks. The RPF version is close to the screen original in the sense they have 2 discs joined by a chain. Unfortunately on the second day of wearing the ring on the blank side of the chain has separated and the 2 sides have come apart. Fixed with a pair of pliers but I think i might drop some solder or something on to it to stop it happening again.
alpha agents have the T bar so this issue wont arise.
the other thing is that the text is far clearer on Alphagents version of the links.
i prefer the T-bar myself just bc i dont want to be disappointed when one of the cufflinks gets separated by the chain. it gets the job done and screen look done for me and im completely satisfied.
wore my "free" Alphagent live and let die pair today and I didnt realise until i took them out of the box that they are gold - look fantastic !
Thanks Mark, I honestly have been humbled by the reaction you guys have given me and by the people I have met on this forum, thank you! Incidentally those are my favourite second set, I think the purple and Gold look the business!
Did anyone notice them though, Paul???
I haven't worn my SF ones yet, but I did show someone and they didn't have a glue and said "...They're OK, I suppose" and then I explained what they were and the penny dropped ... And then all of a sudden they liked them! 8-)

Just received my cufflinks from magnoli, I'm so pleased with the cufflinks and the time they took to get to me! Would definitely recommend them to anyone
I now have the three sets of Orbis cufflinks that I know to be available ( well, excluding the TFs... ) so I wanted to post them and let people compare. They all look great, and have some interesting variations that are worth highlighting - from there, it's all down to personal preference. I will post this in the other 'cufflink' threads too, as I'm not sure what the definitive one is...
First the Magnolis : The most 'accurate' given the double disk design, but it does make them more fiddly to put on - as others have pointed out, it's much easier to put them on first then slip your arm through the sleeve if you have enough room.
Next the Alphas : The T-bar design makes them easier to use in a hurry. The slightly larger size makes the legend more visible then the other two pairs. The finish is more 'weathered'. Note, the design of these makes the coat of arms point at a right angle to traditional cufflink direction - this means it is easier to read by others when your arms are pointing straight down.
Lastly the Hart008s - these have the practicality of the T-bar, and a smoother finish. Being slightly smaller the wording is less visible, although still clear up close. These point the traditional direction, so look sideways when viewed with arms hanging, but 'straight' if your arms are bent ( as at a desk for example ). A nice touch with these is the gift box that carries the crest, and a personalized certificate.

Magnoli certainly does deliver to the UK
And the price is included in the price you see on the website.

We've been getting a few requests for a version of our Skyfall Crest Cufflinks with a swivel back, to make them easier to put on. So, I thought of doing a run with the same style back as our Royale and Montenegro cufflinks:
We've got a post on our Facebook page right now... so comment or like to express your interest:
Any possibility of previous customers being able to switch from the link version to the swivel back version
We normally have a 10% restocking fee (which in this case wouldn't even cover the cost of shipping the replacement pair), plus the cost of shipping the original pair back to us... not sure if it'd be worth it. But if you don't mind the hassle, shoot me an e-mail and we can sort something out.

You do know that the double-medallion version is sartorially preferred? And gives you a bargaining chip when your lady requires your services in zipping up her dress?

...You are, I am ssuming, referring to the "pair" of cufflinks, and not the "other pair" above....?
