I have the thin love at the moment(which I love it) and getting the regular one when my local boutique reopens for renovation.
Hello! I watched this video
Thanks I was planning to buy next month and this video really made me nervous.I find that there’s so much negativity on YT. Human nature is for people to want to air out and have people hear their complaints, they don’t go to YT to say their bracelets are solid…
It’s not my experience so I wanted clarification
I have no issues with mine.
I watch the screw on my regular Love and I know exactly the position it should be in to be secure. I keep the screwdriver in my jewelry drawer with all my jewelry and I try and tighten it about twice a month, but it’s always good.
Thanks so much ! Your reply has given me much needed confidence
I own the Love Cuff because I was scared of screws and because I need to take it off at night. You may want to look at that design too if you are worried. If you want only the regular, I suggest asking the SA about the new screw enhancement and also consider using loctite which is a popular choice on TPF for added security. I have the thin and regular JUCs and the thin is not going to fall off at all. The regular has a hinge mechanism but mine is relatively new (bought in January) and I haven’t had any issues, but I am mindful that when I put it on, the clasp is secure. I have a habit of also checking on the clasp throughout the day to make sure it’s on. I get the impression the issue occurs when people are engaged in heavy activity or wear it 24/7 as daily pressure can perhaps cause the bracelet to open. But this is just a theory, not sure about it.
Thanks for your reply, really appreciate your opinion. Can i please ask what loctite is ?
It’s a jewelry glue. It’s freaky to me because I am a bit claustrophobic when it comes to the regular Love but a lot of people love using it. The issue with loosening mechanisms is usually when you stack pieces—the constant clanging can undo the clasps. That’s why people usually only notice this issue when they start to stack. I think you can get Loctite on Amazon. But just be aware that it will be hard to take the bracelet off.

I’ve worn the regular love with the screw old mechanism for 8 years. Have only taken it off briefly three times since then and never had issues with the screws. I’ve also paired it with an Hermes CDC for the last year and the stacking has not loosened the screws. Everyone’s experience is different but don’t let a few negative stories deter you from getting what you want. Many people wear these pieces without problems. Good luck!
