Just $7.00 on Amazon this is on Amazon in a variety of colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare karatemom2 Posted September 21, 2022 #52 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I invested in the nice gold bracelet for mine this last cruise and it was so much nicer then wearing a lanyard around my neck which makes me feel like I'm at work. I figured that as a frequent Princess cruiser it was a worthwhile purchase that I will use again. It held my medallion very well and looked nice and was very convenient! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grammatically speaking in English this particular use of language is known as a euphemism. Regards John 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re not finding the medallion is loose and moves around in the bracelet? I just got mine and I can’t get it to fit securely. Same with hubby’s rubber wrist strap.

I have both the bracelet and the necklace and had no problem with either one; they fit great, looked lovely and no problems with popping out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westsail32 Posted September 23, 2022 #57 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I've still got my old holder (with the nice flag on it) so I'm using that one. I do put a piece of tape on the bottom just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsquirrel Posted September 24, 2022 #58 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) I bought these for us a few months ago. Amazon has so many choices. https://a.co/d/1wGDRLI Edited September 24, 2022 by rsquirrel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sloopsailor Posted September 24, 2022 #59 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) We bought the sustainable wrist band options that Princess offers. They are more expensive than the Amazon versions, but we'd rather lean towards being more environmentally friendly than in saving a few dollars. Plus, these bands are more comfortable and don't have a tendency to stick to the skin like the silicone versions do. Sustainable Options Our Ocean®#tide sustainable accessories come from plastic reclaimed from the world’s oceans and coastlines. Because each wrist strap is made from the equivalent of two water bottles, the bands are numbered in increments of two. And hard plastics, like shampoo bottles, create the clip and plastic casing.

lx200gps Posted September 27, 2022 #65 Share Posted September 27, 2022 We just disembarked from the Enchanted, and were given the new small plastic Medallion holders at checkin. They worked very well, excellent tight fit for the Medallion. We prefer to use the old style rectangular two-part plastic holders that allow insertion of customized graphics, so when we got home, I tried one of our old ones on the new Medallion. Turns out the Medallion we received on the Enchanted is significantly/visibly thicker than the last Medallion we received last November on the Sky, and doesn't properly fit the old two-part rectangular plastic holder. The holder can't snap shut properly to trap the Medallion. Any chance someone else has noticed this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as a magnet on a steel fridge it will not work that good the outer ring is not touching the fridge. It can hold itself though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essex Racer Posted September 27, 2022 #68 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Have the Princess sustainable wristband, used a couple of times now. So comfy and easy to present your medallion without struggling with the lanyard around neck or tangled up in your pocket, but it is always with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our old Medallions and our latest ones hold just fine to our non-stainless steel surfaces, but have absolutely no hold on our stainless steel fridges. From what I can see, the newer, fatter Medallions, despite the bulge, actually seem to hold better than the thinner, flatter old models, mabe due to a stronger magnet? They just don't hold to Stainless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We held off getting a new refrigerator until we found one that is magnetic. Types 304 and 316 are non magnetic while 430 and 434 are magnetic.

Well I could send a picture of a group of medallions stuck to our stainless steel refrigerator along with 50 or so refrigerator magnets. It is not slightly, it is very strong. The ferritic stainless has a of chromium while the austenitic does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
