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
Yes my phone SA says S but from everything I’ve read online I would probably be a M. Which contradicts their size chart online. There’s a Bulgari thread here on TPF under The Jewelry Box if you want to see more opinions about this bracelet.
 
I’ve done a lot of research on this bracelet and there were quite a few complaints about this version of it separating like that (not the plain or all diamond just this demi pave version). Not sure why…..some thought it was the weight of the diamonds on the ends that contributed to it doing that.
The diamonds have nothing to do with separation. All versions of this bracelet sometimes come separated straight from the factory because each piece is handmade. They don’t separate during wear. I have 2 serpenti bracelets and the full pave one is slightly separated.
 
Hi i need to choose a birthday gift :smile:
Which one would you pick a cartier piece ( regular juc or 1 small juc+ 1 small love) or messika bracelet or the bulgari serpenti.

Let me know where would you start?
My issue a little bit is that i think i’m between 17 and 18 in cartier- 18 feels too big, 17 just stays in one place. I havent tried the messika yet, bulgari was comfortable. I currently have a stack on my left arm, i love stacking but also i don't wear anything to my right, from time to time i wear the Tiffany T in silver.
I have both small love and serpenti.
Love bracelet is only complemented by people who know exactly what it is and how much is costs. To be fair, it’s a very basic bracelet, that does not look really interesting.
Serpenti on the other hand mesmerizes a lot of people, including those who have no idea that it is an expensive brand. None of my many jewelry pieces gets so much attention.
Love looks better stacked, while Serpenti looks best on it’s own.
I’m considering Messika bracelet too, their M size corresponds to Love 17, it’s a little bit tight for me. I was never lucky enough to try on size L, but it should be close to the size of Love 18.

Same for me i tried the medium last week it was tight so i must be a large as well. I’m 18 in love and 17 in Juc
 
Update update - she is here! The box was waiting in the garage for couple of days finally found a moment to open it!!! I feel its a little scratchy on my right wrist, not so much on my left :) what do you think???

Congratulation! It looks so good on you.
I recently was looking at getting a bracelet too and tried on the serpenti - it doesn't look as good on me stacked next to the love bracelet so I decided to let it go...

Thank you so much! I feel the same way with love bracelet. It looks amazing on other people and i love it for the fact that you never take it off and its a heavy gold piece, i never felt it looks good on me.
 
This looks awesome! Congrats! What size did you end up getting?
Thank you- i didnt have a chance to look closely inside the bracelet, but this is a medium, i’m 18 love and 17 Juc. I’ll measure my wrist tonight hope it helps!
