I am in my 50's, wear one with my thin love and BB watch on left wrist. I bought one for my daughter that's in her 20's. I think it looks great no matter how old you are.

30’s here and I’ve been wearing mine permanently for the last couple of years on one wrist with my trinity ring, and BB watch on the other wrist. I don’t think it has an age range.
I wear mine all the time, I´m 50. I have a close friend who is 70, she has one too and wears it with her Tank. Looks very beautiful on her as well, I think it`s time- and ageless.
Hey Girls
thinking of buying the Trinity bracelet.
i know it‘s really popular out there.I‘m sure many of you have one - can you recommend it? What are your experiences with it? And I‘m looking for the Colours of the Cord. I can only See Black online. Which other colours are available ? And is it true that the change is always for Free?Thanks for your help

Hey! Do you think so it's popular? At least here most of the discussion is about JUC and Love. Even the animals rarely sneek around.
I do have two trinity rings which are uncomfortable to wear. Cannot comment on the bacelet but hey, just had the Idea to convert my rings to a bracelet or even both of 'em

I have had one, but I sold it.
What I liked about it:
1. Casual piece, which suits my style perfectly.
2. Easy to change the cord colors, excluding the pain in the butt for me to get to my boutique.
3. Relatively easy to put on and remove. I say relatively, because I always had to use my teeth to slide the knot around! I'm sure more skilled people could do it sans teeth
Why I sold it:
1. This is just my personal opinion- I didn't see it as a piece I could age with. I'm already mid-40s and it feels like a younger piece to me. I just didn't see being a 50, 60, 70 year old woman wearing this.
2. I like to wear bracelets without removing them daily. Getting the cord wet from showering, etc. made it stretch, which necessitated having to tighten the cord a lot, ruining the look (for me). It's hard to explain! I guess it probably also depends on whether the person who changes the cord makes the bracelet part big or small.
I did ask if an actual Trinity ring could be used on a cord, and the SA told me that the rings are too big. She was right- I have two Trinity rings, which I find really comfortable. One is the XXS and I thought I could try that, but even in a size 46, it was way bigger than the cord rings. Plus, the rings on the cord bracelet are meant to stand up, not lie flat.
I don't know what's going on now re: pandemic rules, but before, yes, cord changes were free. There are a wide variety of colors, but each boutique itself may have more limited options.
I'm pretty sure these cords are cotton, not silk or satin as is often stated. In mentioning service costs, Cartier's website says that cotton cord replacements are free, and makes no mention of the cords being silk or satin.

I have the original (now discontinued) love charity bracelet on the cord. I've had for over 10 years and rarely take off. Cords are always free, so I don't care if it gets junked up. I just pop into my boutique and get a new one. Both my sisters and husband have purchased the trinity cord bracelet this year. It's a fun (somewhat inexpensive piece by Cartier) and with the options of free cords it's like always having a new bracelet. If you love it, get it. Who cares what others thinks?
Do you know the colours that are available? I already saw Black, red and beige. What about a light Pink oder Rose colour ?I have one and used to wear it all the time. It’s a great bracelet. Currently my cord color is maroon, but I’ve had a wide range of colors. And yup. They cha be the cord for free
Sounds Great. I think i have to take a look at the colours they offer in store when the Stores are Open again.
I found this pic, maybe here or somewhere else.
