I would go with 2 cm. My wrist is 15 cm and I wear the Love in 17. I definitely wouldn't go any smaller. The 16 would fit but I don't think it would be comfortable. Hope that helps.

I went up two centimeters as well from my wrist circumference. 1 cm up was way too constricting. 3cm up was too loose as I preferred a more fitted look. Plus I felt that if the bracelet were too big I would be more apt to bang it against stuff.

how about try the actual size in store?
When I brought love bracelet, I tried 16,17, and 18. 16 fits fine, can't turn, don't move a lot, SA recommended size. But I don't like it at all, I felt too tight. 17 fits slight loose, I can turn it around if it's near my wrist bone, and moves to 2-3 inches down my arm. 18 feels huge, never would work for me.
So, my decision is easy, 17 is perfect for me. I personal don't like snug love on the wrist, which is SA recommended way of wearing it.

I like the look of a looser fit but the 17 falls really far down on your wrist. I think it would be annoying and get in the way. I also think you'll scratch it more. The 16 would probably be perfect for you.

First, so sorry for all of my typos...darn auto-correct on the iphone! LOL!

No, it's not tight on my pulse point. I think my wrist is really just between a 16 and 17. It's 14.5 at the smallest point and 14.75cm at the largest point. i do want it to be a more tailored look and it drives me bananas to wear bangles that slide up my arm (like the Hermes clic clac in PM). Like I said, the 16 would be *perfect* if those screws didn't stick out so much! I have no problem with it's range of motion, i can even turn the bracelet completely on my wrist, it's just my bone sticks out in a way that leaves only about a .5mm of space between my wrist and the screw at the largest point. I think I'll get used to it and if not, will have to go with the 17, but I think my wrist is the smallest possible size that would be okay with the 17 and I think that might be too big for my liking. I'm going to give this a week or two and see where I'm at. If i'm not *thinking* about the bracelet I don't tend to notice it, but when I'm driving or turn my wrist a strange way, the screws tend to poke me a little. I wonder if it's kind of like the 'sizing beads' that are put in rings to make them smaller. It takes a while to get used to them and then you don't even notice them.

I did find that all of the SAs who helped me, and who wore the Loves, wore them on the snug side. The manager helped me the other day and she had 2 with the older 6 diamonds and she hadn't taken them off in 12 years!! She told me to give it some time.

Love the bracelet though, can't stop staring at it! So pretty when it's so shiny...wish it would stay like that!

Thank you all so much for your feedback! It's been very helpful!

hey! i currently seem to be in the same dilemma as you were :x. The 16 fits perfect, however, I'm thinking of going up to a size 17 because I can feel the screws and I'm afraid it will be annoying. What did you end up going with and are you happy with your choice? Cheers xx

Hi all! Currently in a bit of a dilemma. I was fitted in store for the Love bracelet in a size 16, which fit quite well except I have protruding wrist bones and I could feel the screws every time I moved by hand. The SA was certain that size 16 would be perfect for me, as she recommends a tight fit, however I felt like it was a bit too snug for my comfort. From my understanding the SA's always seem to push the smaller size over the bigger. The size 17 was definitely looser and fit like a true bangle. Does anyone have any experience with what I am currently deciding between? Suggestions greatly appreciated xx :kiss:

For reference: my wrist is about 15 cm on largest part
