Someone who visited an Asian store said there is a third screw system but I have never heard about it and asked three cartier stores in the states. I also called corporate and they said they are constantly make revisions to the bracelets to make it better. I bought a new bracelet three weeks ago and the SA out it in for me (no glue) and it has not loosened at all!

I am in the exact situation my 17 fits perfect and I think should I have bought an 18 if I wanted to wear 2. Yes keep me posted about how they feel in the heat because we plan on moving next year to South Carolina and with the humidity I worry!Both of mine are the new system. I was on the fence about the sizing before I bought the 2nd because when I bought my 1st I always had it in the back of my mind that I should have gotten a bigger size. Both of mine are size 17's but I tried on 18s and 19s before making the decision to go with the 17s. I was a bit worried about the heat too but I feel like I have enough room with both of them... I'll let you know in July/August if that changes thoughLOL

Love this! I really regret not getting the 4 diamond one
Have you layered any other bracelets with your 2 loves? I like how Daphne Oz on The Chew layers a few dainty bracelets with her 2 loves but my 2nd is so new. I don't want the extra scratches yet

Beautiful and I love your nails.
Can anybody tell me about how long it takes to get scratches on their bracelet or how long it took you to get over getting them. I would assume the first scratches are the worst and as you get more you tend to embrace them. It is that in between phase that is torture.
I was so upset when my 1st Love got scratches. I just got my 2nd Love 3 weeks ago & I already have some very fine scratches but I am much less bothered by them this time!
It took only days to get the first few scratches. I don't mind the superficial ones so much. It is really inevitable for jewelry worn 24/7. I will say the bracelet still looks shiny and pretty with the scratches. But I have had mine since this April, love it and planning on another.
Basically took me an hour or two...and yes the first few scratches were the worst. However your "immune system" will gradually build up (took me two days) then you'll start to go like meh it's ok. Now I kinda like the look of it. You can always bring it to cartier and get it polished again but that will scrape a very thin layer off the bracelet and it will no longer feel the same
The first scratch always happens during that instantaneous second you forget about the euphoria of your new bracelet, after you take the initial pictures such and then open a door or close your laptop lol
The best way to protect it is not layer and wear a sweat band over when you're running around the house or working out, but the bangle is meant to be worn down and look like it's been on you all your life, however I too cringe whenever I see scratches and I do get upset but I think there's a point where you let it go and just embrace the scratches while being conscious of what's on your wrist during activities

Why doesn't it feel the same after you get it polished??
this is almost 2 years, a good cleaning makes it shine right back up just used their cleaning solution and tooth brush
I honestly don't give it special attention- I've been layering like crazy even with an eternity bangle that's too big (I realize AFTER I COME HOME WITH IT) so it has been scratching my love, it looked even better before I brought that baby home. I've been layering more and more to keep buffers in between but I think I will have to bite the bullet one day and redo the whole setting. So I guess in that case I do keep the love in mind, while I don't baby it like crazy I try to prevent damage if I know I can prevent it ie buffer bracelets
