That’s hilarious. I bought my cuff right before xmas and am considering the small clash now as well
Great minds think a lot alike! So I ran the numbers: $2240 vs. $2508.80 after price increase. Since I live in CA, $2413.60 vs. $2703.23. Less than $300 difference, but I still don't want to pay any more than I have to, but my poor wallet doesn't have any time to recuperate.

Exactly alike…I’m in CA too :lol:
Same, I don’t want to spend more either but it is so soon after a purchase. I guess the question I’m asking myself is- will I eventually end up getting it? If so, then might as well do it now, save money (if you can call it that), and get the purchases over with. I’m leaning towards yes… I sat on that cuff for a while before I pulled the trigger but if I got it when I initially was interested, I could have gotten it closer to 4K.
I’m also not sure if I want RG or WG…

My dilemma is that I'm waiting for my Cartier Tank Must Solar Beat to come in (which my SA saids is this month) so that's more $$$. And to top that off, I'm debating whether I should get the ring vs the VCA Tiger Eye pendant. I don't know, the clashe is definitely edgy and would be a nice addition to my other rings (small love and small JUC), but I think I would love the VCA pendant more, but like you said if I'm gonna end up buying it anyways, shouldn't I save some change? I know first world problems. :P

Haha, totally. It sounds like you’re not sold on the clash as much as the VCA pendant- if you don’t have a pendant but already have two Cartier rings, maybe VCA is the way to go. Stock is so low with VCA these days; if you come across the Tiger Eye pendant you might want to jump on that.

I actually have 4 VCA pendants (the holiday wg G, yg G, mini frivole and sweet alhambra butterfly). :loveeyes:
I was planning to get the small trinity for my next ring and between the trinity and the clashe, I would choose the trinity, so maybe I'm just not into the clashe except the price point is so attractive for the amount of gold you get right now. And in order to get the TE you actually have to order it. It doesn't come into the boutiques unless you buy it, at least that's what I've been told.
 
Looks like ******** got her intel from diamonds in Dubai. I’m always a bit skeptical when info about price increases is posted on social media that aren’t from sales associates of a brand. ******** is not always right. Have there been any Cartier sas who have said this is the official word?
…And DiD got it from Taty….it’s all recirculated intel from only one source.
So far Ive heard from 2 SAs who haven’t heard a thing about an increase.
Not that it’s not true, but right now there’s really only one uncorroborated source.
