I'll be getting a LOVE bracelet soon (maybe next week). I have a few questions for you girls: 1. Has your pink gold bracelet faded to yellow gold over time/wear as does white gold, in general? 2. My wrist is 6", and I don't know what size to get, so to the girls with 6" wrists, what size did you get and why, and would you get a different size if you were doing it all over again?

Thank you ladies.

My wrist is just under 6". I have a YG in size 17. The SA said I could do a size 16 or 17 but recommended a 17. I'm so glad I got a 17 because in the summer, I do notice a little swelling. I think the 16 would have felt too constricting. Hope that helps!

Cartier pink gold is my favorite of any brand. It's like a subtle, warm rich hue slightly different from yellow gold. Not coppery at all. Get the size 17

1. Only got mine 2 weeks ago so any speak of how long this will take to happen. I did ask the SA and he said that YG and RG both lighten in colour over time. I agree with the poster above, Cartier RG is very subtle - it's not very rosy unless you hold it up against YG but the difference is there.

2. I've got a 5.9" wrist and I went for the 16. I hate bracelets sliding too far up my arm and prefer the fitted look of the 16 over the 17. The 17 also didn't look right to me, even though I loved the look on others here. I don't really stack bracelets either but that could be something you can consider. Also think about whether you need to push it up your arm a lot to type etc.

I don't think I would go a bigger size if I was given the opportunity either
 
thank you ladies ~ I read here on TPF that someone purchased this bracelet big enough to slip on and off her wrist over her hand, thus never having to screw/unscrew this bracelet... sounds like a smart move, what do you think?

Me! It is ok. I need to buy another one because I lose weight, so it is very big now.
I have small hands. It only works if you have tiny hands.

I slip mine on and off. I can do that with the JUC too. My wrists are large, but small hands.

My SA warned against getting a bangle that was too loose - said it was more likely to get banged around and that the screws would loosen because of the additional movement.

to me this seems like a great idea! I won't know if it will work for me until I get there, but I do have small hands ... I have a Tiffany 18k bangle which I slip on and off my wrist over my hands and the interior seems to be 19 cm, according to my cloth tape measure.

I'm just wondering what everyone thinks of this idea ~ would you do it if you could? If not, why not?

PS I can't imagine wearing it always and not cleaning it, so it has to come off at the very least for cleaning purposes.

makes total sense if wearing it 24/7. However, if I can slip it on and off at will, I won't be wearing it 24/7, so not banging it into things as frequently.

I bought a larger size to do just this . If you can get the Tiffany on and off, you will be fine . Your LOVE will stay newer , longer too! :)

I am obsessive with cleaning my jewelry. So I really get what you mean!
