Hi everyone, please give me your opinions on which bracelet I should get! I’m debating between the Tiffany micro link bracelet from their hard wear line or a 1ct tennis bracelet from Blue Nile. I plan to stack this with my RG plain love bangle for everyday wear. Both are approximately $2000. Other suggestions are welcome as well!

Will be treating myself to this for my 30th. :smile:

Thanks for the replies! I’m just a bit worried about the durability of the tennis bracelet. Do you think it’ll stack well with the love bracelet or just end up going under all the time?

What would be your ideal ct size for the bracelet? Given my current budget, this will only be 1 ct.

Do you have tiny wrists?
Do you want the tennisbracelet to be the center of attention or more of a side-kick (that will complement maybe a wider one)?

I think my ideal ct weight would be around 2 ct, but I'm not sure. I have teeny tiny wrists, so I can get away with a smaller one, and it would also be more proportionate on me. Want to add that I'm planning to wear it alone most of the time, just a little sparkle in my everyday life.
We could all do with that imo :smile:.

Yes, my wrists are 6 inches. You’re right, I think a little sparkle for everyday is more my style instead of something bigger. :smile:

If you're going to get a diamond tennis bracelet, get at least 2 ctw. If you get a diamond oval bangle, where the diamonds are always on top, you can get away with 1 ctw. This is because it will look like a 2 ctw if it had diamonds all around. The 1 ctw diamond bracelet is too delicate and thin. Have you tried any on? Go to a local jewelry store to get a feel for size. $2000 is a lot for a 1 ctw diamond tennis bracelet. You can get a 2 ctw for about $2600.

From your post, I like the Tiffany one better, but will it go under your love bangle? Maybe a diamond bangle that is similar in shape to your love bangle would be the most comfortable. I hate it when my chain bracelet would go under parts of my watch. I didn't want it to scratch.

HTH! Good luck with your search!

Thanks for the info about the tennis bracelet! I haven’t shopped around much for one so I didn’t realize that it’s actually a bit overpriced for 1ct.
