I am looking to order the small love bracelet this week online before the price increase that’s supposed to be coming in a week or two which is what I am reading and hearing. The nearest Cartier store is 5.5 hours away so I can’t try on the size. I bought the Small JUC bracelet at the store when traveling in the size 15 and it fits perfectly. What size love should I get? Is 16 the correct size for the love? I would like to be able to stack them sometimes. I read somewhere you are supposed to size up for the love from the JUC. Thank you!

Yes, you're suppose to size 1 up from the Juc, so you would get the 16. Good luck getting the small Love. Apparenty those are selling like hot cakes according to 2 Cartier stores I went into in Vegas. I have the regular love and wanted to add a small one.

Hi all

I receieved the small love 5 days ago and awoke from a nap yesterday realizing it had fallen off. I understand to lock it you turn it 1/4 so that the motif is horizontal with the others and when I looked at it when it was off it was completely turned and unlocked. Then when I went to go lock it, it now turns 360 and keeps turning and turning whereas before it would stop at the 1/4 mark.

I have shipped it for Cartier to do a diagnostic on it, however, this rubs me the wrong way as I received this bracelet 5 days ago and it’s clearly a malfunction issue. I stack with the regular love that has had no screw issues thus far.

What would you all do?

Definitely sounds like a defect with the bracelet and given that it's just a few days old I would request an exchange vs a "fix". Mine hasn't done this so far

An ambassador said that it still needs to be sent to New York for a diagnostic before they can rule on whether an exchange is necessary vs repair. but I definitely think I’m going to push for an exchange because it just doesn’t seem right for me to pay that amount of money and have it for not even a week and need a repair already. There is zero wear and tear & honestly a bracelet needing a repair has to affect the integrity to some degree, right?

How long have you had yours ? It’s stayed locked? Does the motif keep turning if you tried? (like 360)

Regardless, was told they need to look at it in NYC shop.
Going to push for an exchange either way

I got the small Love 3 weeks ago and it stays locked. The motif will keep turning 360 degrees like yours. I did that by accident and was like UH-OH! I don't know if it's supposed to do that at all, but it has stayed locked so far. I also have the regular size Love and that one has never even needed to be tightened. The SA put it on a year ago and she did a great job. I've never taken it off, I keep my eye on the screws and have tried to tighten it like they recommend, but it's locked on solid. The screws do not move.

Yes my SA in Miami locked my love on SOLID as well. absolutely no movement. I love the reg and small stacked because it adds texture as opposed to two reg loves, but I’m afraid the Small is too delicate.

I’ll wait & see what Cartier says after they run a diagnostic on the piece. I want it exchanged lol

I’ve had mine for 3 years and stack it. I’ve never had a problem; it definitely sounds like a defect. I’m sorry that happened to you.

The small isn’t delicate. Mine fell off once and I take responsibility since it only happened once lol
Hasn’t happened since and I am no where near careful with it.
They’re not padlocked on…

Finally joined the club last month. It’s a beautiful piece. Substantial but subtle. I ended up flying to Oahu since there is no store in Maui. It was just a day trip, and I visited my grandma at the same time. It was the last time I ever saw her as she passed away the following week. It might sound dramatic but if I hadn’t gone to Oahu to pick this up, I wouldn’t have gotten to see her one last time.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone would be able to give feedback in regards to a question I had. I am debating on adding a thin love to wear with my regular love however, does anyone have issues with the two bracelets overlapping? My SA said that if both bracelets are the same size they shouldn’t overlap.
Thanks!

Depends on how snug the fit is. If your love is too large they can catch an edge of one another if they are angled weird. ( lots of room for the bracelet to flop around) Most of the time though they will lay flat with no issues except the clinking noise.
If your love is snug though and doesn’t move much then they wont overlap even if they are angled funny.

They should not overlap, but the sides touching each other will definitely get some wear & tear.

Mine have never overlapped. But I wear my loves fitted instead of loose. I think I’d you wear your loves looser then you may experience overlapping.
