1. **Durability**: Stainless steel is highly durable, corrosion-resistant, and strong, making it an excellent base material for jewelry.

2. **PVD Gold Plating**: The 18K PVD gold plating process bonds gold to the stainless steel at a molecular level. This method ensures that the gold color is long-lasting and resistant to tarnishing, fading, and scratches. The PVD process creates a coating that is more durable than traditional gold plating techniques.

3. **Waterproof**: Since the jewelry is made from stainless steel, it is resistant to water and can be worn while swimming or showering without rusting or corroding.

Overall, this combination results in jewelry that is both aesthetically pleasing and highly durable, ensuring it maintains its appearance for several years with proper care.
