Cartier- Bulgari- which one?

[Purrsey]

^i agree. And yours is so beautiful @Xthgirl

Not just the demi pave, the full pave also has its fair share of variations. The SA showed me a few new pieces of full pave. Among four pieces, only one piece made the mark (tight tight like a virgin ).

If I ever dive in for one, it’s gonna be a tight one or nothing. To me, it’s the same thing compared to Cartier Juc (comparing to the small Juc that is also springy to begin with).

Update from me- i went to Bulgari today and my husband was with me even he liked the serpenti, but they were not tight there was a opening as some of the members mentioned. But its so comfortable… i tried the Juc, clash and the panthere also but Juc felt so heavy and uncomfortable, and i felt its so common with so many people have the fakes etc. I loved the Tank Louis but the price tag i think is too much for a letter bracelet watch. Looks like it will be serpenti for me as i can even stack it with my watch or find another stack to go with it for my right hand as it would even be comfortable when typing etc. And the Sa told me there will be a price increase. Here are some photos from the stores i went today.And i signed up for a 36 Rolex tt as a 2nd watch so fingers crossed for that too.

@Purrsey another update from me for the serpenti- i told the Sa i’d like to have a new item shipped to my house and the tightest one possible as you suggested, and i looked at the photos i took in the same store back in 2021- the head and tail were closer for sure
But she said this is not the way its supposed to be as they are touching and this would cause scratches. So i guess i’ll order online if i still dont like the opening will go check Nyc store to see what they have.
First photo is from 2021
Second is the new one with the wider opening from the sa.

I love updates. And of course more pretty mod shots

It makes sense on the scratches. A little opening does make it look more dimensional.

Looking forward to your reveal.

None of the ones I've tried on touched or were super "tight" or close. It didn't occur to me that it could bother anyone, loved them just the way they were!

I’m confused about this bracelet. I’ve done a lot of research on it bc I hope to purchase but the one thing that continues to stop me is the inconsistencies. There’s variation on inside circumstance by letter size. And also width of opening. And how far the head and tail overlap (I prefer more overlap than less). I totally get it that they’re hand made but this makes ordering online so difficult. Please let us know how it goes!

Fingers crossed will keep you posted. What do you mean “there’s variation on inside circumstance by letter size” ?

From what I can tell the inside circumference varies by letter size. EG sometimes S = 5.75” sometimes it’s 6.0” etc. I’ve seen M = 6”, 6.5” and 6.75”. So no consistency based on letter size (which is how Bulgari notes sizing for this item). At this point I’m not sure if I’m a S or M! I want 6.25-6.5”. Seems that it’s best to try on multiple to find one that works but I’m not very near a store (2 hours away) so would likely order online. I got the Serpenti double ring and even ordered a size bigger than what they suggested and it still barely fits. I think their sizing is all over the place and tends to run small in many cases.

The gap in some of them is interesting. I must admit, I like the “tighter and closer” fit. Sort of like the JUC, I prefer it snug and for the nail to sit close together- it reminds me of seeing the small juc bent the wrong direction!

Got it thank you! Yes the website is showing medium but then the sa me tioned its a 17.. i think i should get it soon i’ll look what it says and how it fits.

I tried the small it was very tight, the Sa immediately take it off so i’m a medium for sure. I’ll measure my wrist for you as well maybe it could help
