Put that on my list. Hope I'll think about my list tomorrow :idea:

My fear is that they ARE sized differently but that's needed because of mounting / unmounting or whatever other reason. This would be a no-go as they need to be the same actual size on your arm. Different actual sizes are a nightmare wearing and will ruin the bracelets - confirmed by Cartier.

I know that when I had them both on at the boutique, they were flush, but I haven’t had it on since (still trying to decide if I want yellow or pink gold). Looking forward to your report!

I’ve never owned the regular but if stacking cuff with regular I heard that you should choose the regular in a size smaller than the cuff as the cuff comes up smaller. Both my cuffs are a size 18 so if I wanted to add a regular I would need a 17.

I have also been told this same info by multiple SA's in different boutiques. Both my cuffs are also size 18 and when I was in the store, I tried on both cuff + bangle on together to check. I indeed would need a size 17 bangle to stack with a size 18 cuff. Now I wish I would have taken a photo to show!

Thanks, I'll need to check it out - never heard of it here in Canada.

Definitely check it out! I had heard of it before but didn’t start looking into buying a piece until recently and now I am hooked and want more! Their designs are very elegant and absolutely beautiful quality. I really want a white gold bracelet now to stack with my yellow gold but can’t decide which design I like best.

Okay .... here we go. First my sales rep - she is a real goldsmith wondered about the different sizes and she normally recommends the same for both. She showed me a cuff and a bracelet of the same size which are similar. However the clue is that the regular is more round shaped than the cuff. Latter needing the more oval form to be able to put it on and on the other hand not to lose it. As we had so much more to discuss - for more than 2 hours - so I just noted what she said without further thinking trough.

My opinion on the cuff vs regular debate is that it depends very much on what kind of jewellery wearer you are - I like to change up my bracelets all the time or not wear a bracelet sometimes etc. So not being able to take the bracelet off easily would drive me insane. I don’t like to sleep shower or exercise in jewellery!

If you’re happy to leave it on all the time and only remove it once in a while (super rarely) - then the classic will work for you. If you’re more like me - the cuff is a better proposition.

I've had my cuff for a little over a year. I even added a second one for a big birthday last summer. For the second bracelet, I debated between the Cuff, small JUC and also the small LOVE bracelet. I even went to the store to try them on, unfortunately I live 4-5 hours away. I liked the look of the two cuffs together the best.

I have no regrets on the cuff purchases. I love being able to take them off for exercise or cleaning.

Which two do you have? I’m curious if you got two of the same or mixed metals.
