I think my new obsession is these love bracelets. I feel right now (could change tomorrow) that open is better for me. I take my jewelry off as soon as I walk in house and I can't imagine cleaning kitchen, dishes, etc. in such an expensive piece. Opinions?

I agree with you on the open. I take my jewelry off - all of it - as soon as i walk in the house too. So much so that as crazy as it sounds, much of my jewelry is sitting in a drawer in the kitchen because I just set it there when walking in the house before doing anything like starting dinner, changing a diaper or washing a dish.

I have the open bracelet in yellow gold.
I love knowing that I can take it off and on easily and with no hassles.

i am the odd here. i think closed one is so classy. and i can ask my "love" to screw it on and off for me :)

I work in a profession where I can't have jewelry on at work, and so definitely the open one for me! I have the white gold and I love it! It is definitely nice to be able to take it on and off, I would probably prefer this even if I could wear it to work.

i have the closed on my wrist... i have had it on since February now and i don't really feel it. i do everything with it on like exercise, clean, wash the car (haha i know) etc.. it never gets annoying for me!

What is the price difference between the open and closed version?

thegraceful1 · Oct 4th, 2008, 03:01 PM

^ price diff. about $1K or so.

mcb100 · Oct 4th, 2008, 11:14 PM

which one is more expensive? open or closed?

Hokaplan · Oct 4th, 2008, 11:45 PM

Closed one is more expensive. Also the open one is newer, only 2 years or so.

ReRe · Oct 5th, 2008, 12:27 AM

Can someone show a picture of the open one?

tweetie · Oct 5th, 2008, 11:22 AM

^^ It's on the Cartier website if you click on the collection link.

Can't decide between the two yet.

Onederland · Oct 9th, 2008, 10:11 PM

if you like to take your jewelry off, then i'd go with the open one.

but personally, i prefer the closed one, and like bextasy said, i want it to become a part of me, so much that i won't even notice it being there. :)

Bf is getting the open cuff for my bday:heart!! I chose the open-end over the closed one because i like to take my jewlery off when i get home.
