Personally I would probably do 18 but since your wrist is a little under 16cm you could most likely get away with either! Do you want it more snug or more loose is the only question
How slightly ,I would go 18 if you are closer to wrist measuring 16.reason is in the summer humid heat makes people swollen, also some people have one wrist bigger then the other too.good luck, please share photos soon
It looks beautiful on you! I also have the small love
Do you normally wear it on your left or right wrist?
Hi everyone!
Today I went to the Cartier store in NYC and purchased a love bracelet. I am now doubting myself that I should’ve gone with a 17 instead of a 16. The Sales associate was pleasant at the store and leaned towards the 16. She said it looked better but it was still my choice. The 17 fit well but I thought it was a little loose by my wrist. I don’t have any other love bracelets so I can’t compare. Unfortunately I do not have any photos of the 17. But I am including the 16 on my hand. I am thinking the 16 is a bit too snug and maybe I should exchange for the 17? It’s leaving marks on my hand (included photos) is that normal?I cannot turn it on my wrist but it moves freely up and down. It feels a bit uncomfortable when I’m laying down and have my hand up when I’m turning it. it feels weird against my bones. I hope that made sense! Is that something I’ll get used to? Please let me know what you ladies think. Maybe i am just going crazy for no reason. TIA!

I had a similar decision...the 16 fit but felt weird on my bony part of the wrist. So I went with the 17 and I am glad I did...especially during hot/humid weather and times when we can swell a bit.
Hi there. Congrats on your beautiful love. The same happened to me. The SA advised a 17 but after going home with it I notices it was too uncomfortable and the screws were annoying me so went back and exchanged it for a 18. I must say that the bracelet still leaves marks but it’s much more comfortable. I agree with MJ that when it’s hot and humid, better have a more comfortable fit
My bracelet is a 17 and is a little loose on me and it leaves the same exact marks. I think that has less to do with the size unless it’s squeezing and touching your arm at all times which yours clearly isn’t, and more that the gold is pretty heavy and our skin is pale and maybe sensitive lol! So if it’s really bugging you, get the 17, but it may leave the same marks. I think that’s normal for some people.
Also, congrats. It’s beautiful!

Looks like a perfect size to me. You will get use to it soon!
When I got my first love, my arms basically had welts on them lol. But now nothing, I wear 2 and barely notice them on. I'd definitely recommend getting the size that makes you feel comfortable, especially in the summer when it's humid and hot you swell and it feels like you are choking with them on haha. Congrats!!
Thanks! I feel like i was fine when I just had it put on around 2:00pm and in the evening it became a bit snug. I didn’t feel it or pay attention to it the entire day until I laid down.possibly retaining water? Frustrating
