Cartier Love Bracelet Sizing Thread!

After long debating between size 16 or 17, I finally decided to go with size 16 on the classic love bracelet and 16 as well on Juc. I sold my love cuff 18 because it cannot line up correctly with either size 16 or 17 on classic love ( I tried them in the boutique). The opening of the cuff will easily overlap and scratch the regular love at certain angle if that makes sense.View attachment 5092538
Gorgeous stacks!! I love your rings too :heart: That's great to know the cuff doesn't work with classic love - Thanks for sharing! I was curious and was going to try on the cuff with my classic loves when I go into the boutique next time but your post saves my time ;)
( May I ask your both of ring size? )
 
Help! I think my wrist is 13 ish cm and I have a 15cm. Does it look too tight? I live in Northern California so right now the weather is cooler. But I travel to the tropics quite often. Should I exchange for a 16? When I bought the bracelet my SA didn’t suggest trying on the 16 at all cause she said 15 was perfect.
x Pls help and let me know your thoughts! TIA

As people have mentioned before on these threads, it all comes down to personal preference. But, I just dealt with this! I purchased my first Cartier YG classic love bracelet last weekend and agonized over the sizing. I posted about it on here too. The SA’s tend to push customers toward a more snug or standard fit, that was my experience anyway. I caved and went with her recommendation because she told me that 18 was far too big for my wrist. I purchased the 17 and went on my way. That night I felt like it was too tight and I obsessively worried about gaining weight, pregnancy, hot and humid summers, etc. so I went back the next morning and exchanged it for the larger size. My rationale is that larger is OK (there are tactics to prevent it from sliding up and down the arm too much) but too small is uncomfortable and can be unbearable in hot and humid climates especially during the summer months depending on where you live. I live in a tropical climate though and there’s virtually no winter. My vote is for the 16. Most people on here will suggest (and personally prefer) a more snug or standard fit. That’s how it was designed and marketed to originally fit but a lot of people including celebrities also prefer the looser fit these days. But go with what feels right. Try it on multiple times and don’t feel bad to exchange it if you’re not happy within a couple of days before it gets any scratches. This is an expensive purchase and you need to be satisfied. Customer service is usually good but it should be for that price point when purchasing luxury goods.

You should go try it as everyone has different preference. I like my bangles line up perfectly and not moving around too much. My ring are both in size 52, I think that's size 6.
 
Congrats looks great! What made you go with the 16 and what are your wrist measurements?
My wrist is 14.5cm and size 16 fits me perfectly.
One finger can slip thru the gap of the bracelet and I can move them around if I want to and still make both of them "stay" where I want them to. Size 17 looks too big on me and has too much room to wiggle. Not to mention the clanking sound is too noticeable if I decide to stack them. So I rather choose a fitted size. :amuse:

i have the same measurements and same size. it really a perfect fit, as the 17 is too big. but 16.5 would be even more perfect

I have the same size as your wrist 14.5 and bracelet size 16 too, and yes they're the perfect fit! :smile: I actually just went to try the cuff on at the boutique today ( yay finally! ) however, I did not like the cuff with my 2 classic Loves in person at all ( the same reason you mentioned ) Sorry for no pics while I was trying on a few and now I'm debating of a thin pave as the third stack..Oh well, why my obsession never end?! Each time I purchased I thought I got enough. Well, simply I should've not gone into the boutique, a bad idea! Lol :biggrin:

I completely agree with you, for the wrist size 14.5, Love 16 is a perfect size and much better than 17 for sure from my experience and yes 16.5 would be ideal. Wish Cartier made half-size, but then I would have to replace all sizes again if they started to make new half-size and get into trouble lol
