Thank you! I am really trying to love it. I feel like maybe I should just go back to 1 love and get rid of the rest... Simplicity. I have time to think it over since both my loves are stuck on my wrist right now.. Problem for another forum perhaps lol LOCKED in for real

I am shocked how the edges are lostMy mother’s Love is back from repair! New screws, new rhodium coating and a deep polishit looks brand new!
Oh my gosh, you're right! Does that happen when you get your bracelet polished/ Serviced??I am shocked how the edges are lost
Yes ... but I was unaware how massive that is. Good to see though, I never will have mine polished, they lose all the "loveness". 
What do you mean by edges are lost? The edges aren’t as sharp?I am shocked how the edges are lost
The bracelet edges are no longed squared off after too many polishings. I thought it was after 2 or more, I wonder if it's how heavy handed the metalsmith (or whatever they are!) is?
I've personally seen a Love after a single polish which was noticeable but nothing compared to the one here. I wonder why they just can't foil / polish the bracelets to remain its original shape???
This love is around 15 years old and it looked quite rounded like that that even before it went in
my mother is extremely heavy handed and renovated her house, garden, etc without caring how scratched up her jewellery gets, so they probably had to polish quite deeply, resulting in more rounding. You should see her Love ring 
that is even worse and looks like it’s been through a cheese grater lol.So beautiful! Can you share how much this cost? I currently have 2 loves STUCK on my wristOne 4 diamond and 1 classic, both in yellow gold.
The price for two new screws, rhodium plating and polishing/reshaping was £439. For my yellow gold Love for the same services minus the rhodium plating was £310. My love was stuck on my wrist for a year! I made the screws blunt and couldn’t get the screwdriver to take the screw, so I scored along the screw lines with a knife and it finally worked.
Is your mums bracelet the old screw system? I’m going to go slightly against the grain here and say I kind of like how the bracelet looks when it’s a bit rounded and softened down. I like it equally new but I do like the roundness too. I just think they all look lovely!This love is around 15 years old and it looked quite rounded like that that even before it went in
It is the old one yes. Mine is too! I really don't mind the rounded edges at all. Here is mine back from repair:
Yours looks gorgeous too! They’re lovely when they’re new and shiny!
Your mother is my role model! I want to wear and enjoy my jewelry, not preserve it in pristine condition. Would love to see a pic of the "cheese grated" ring sometime if you and your mother are willing to share one!This love is around 15 years old and it looked quite rounded like that that even before it went in
Hi everyone. I have a question does your Cartier bracelet come with plastic wrapping when you receive it? Or was it just in the box when you get it?
