Another vote for size 17! My wrist is 14.5 cm and I have one in size 17. The size 16 felt like a hand cuff on me, kind of like i was wearing a thick rubber rather than a bangle. The SAs at Cartier all agreed that 16 was too snug. Also, I like how I can push it up my arm a bit when I type and the fact that it moves when I move my arm - it makes the bangle look more 'alive'.

From what you described, we have similar arm shape I think? My wrist is 14.75 cm and I can wear 16 but little room to push up, about 1.5 to 2 inches. its a traditional fit but I want it to be more flexible. Does ur 17 fit like mine? Do you find loose around ur hand? When I am walking and let the bracelet down, I kinda feel it too loose, although it won't fall, but quite low down there! Curious to know how you feel! thanks
I think you should go for 17. I just had my wrist measured, and mine is 14 cm
Thank you!!!wow you have small wrist that's why 16 fits u perfectly!!!! thank you for taking ur measurement to help me
My wrist is a little bigger than urs and probably I have rounder arms so 16 doesn't fit as good as urs!!

Are you able to rotate yr bracelet around yr wrist when you are wearing the size 16 ? With size 16, I am still able to rotate it but with slight pressure. Hope that will help

yes I can rotate the 16 but with force, haha
my arm is narrow but more round so that's why I think i can rotate. But because it's more round shape than oval the 16 won't move freely as I had hoped!! It's interesting that the look changes on different people with different arm shapes even tho same wrist size!!

Yeah, I think mine does fit like yours. From my wrist bone (ie the highest knobbly bit on the top of my wrist), there is a 1 cm gap between the underside of my wrist and the bangle when I let the bangle hang from the knobbly bit and I can push it 6cm up my arm from that point.
Maybe my palm is wider than yours, but mine definitely doesn't feel too loose when I let my arm hang. It really comes down to personal preference, but I think 17 is the perfect size for me cos I really like how it moves and dangles a bit.
I measured and I got the same numbers: 1cm and 6cm!! We do have similar fit
maybe my palm is smaller. Thank you so muchHi ladies,
I have the Cartier Love bangle in RG, size 17. My wrist measures 14 cm (about 5.5 inches) and it often feels quite loose, which annoys me most of the time.
What do you think, would size 16 have been better?
Honest opinions please!
Here are some pics showing me wearing the 17.
