Different topic here. Sbd wrote here that chloride may damage the Loves. In 2 weeks I'll have a pool at my hotel and I'm totally unsure if I should use it. Also I read outside this forum that salty water is dangerous for the metals whereas chloride more for gemstones.

Any suggestions?

There is a topic on the forum regarding swimming pools.

I’ve read chlorine is bad for gold in general as it breaks down gold and makes it brittle.

Another article I read is that sea salt is very corrosive to copper, which is used for pink gold/rose gold, and it will cause the jewelry to collapse much faster than yellow gold: https://www.stoneandstrand.com/blogs/blog-list/the-do-s-don-ts-of-wearing-your-jewelry-to-the-beach

As for gemstones, I don’t read up on it as I don’t own any other than diamonds.

Hi,
Anyone altered their love chain bracelet the second time? I read in my store that it costs almost usd200. That's rather hefty when it's just removing chains or adding chains (with the extra chain from original bracelet).

Hi all, I am thinking of getting a white gold classic Love bracelet. Just wondering does that turn yellowish. Last week I saw a lady who had a Love bracelet. The bracelet color wasn't yellow and rose gold just yellowish and whitish. So, I am little hesitating now and thought and asked myself that’s why most people have gold ones? Does Cartier white gold classic Love bracelet change the color? Especially into yellow? BTW, I'm new at this forum. Thank you all in advance!

I've swam in pools with my loves for years and never had any issues (mine are all gold/no stones).
Sand can scratch gold so I'm thinking that's why they it can be dangerous ~ fwiw, I've always worn mine to the beach and don't notice any crazy scratching or damage.
 
A lot of people consider the thin love as a great piece if you want to take it on and off. However, I'm interested in wearing it 24/7 as a lifetime piece but I'm afraid it will fall off because it's "easy to take off". Is there anyone that had it for a longer time that could confirm?
I’ve been wearing my SM Love for over 3 years, never had a problem with it falling off my wrist. Only had it off at the Cartier store to clean it.
