I’m about 13.5cm & the 15 was perfect. The 16 was too big on me. The only problem with getting a 15 love is if you want to stack with a JUC in the future, you really need a size 14 JUC which isn’t readily available right now

Thanks! How far down your wrist (towards your hand) does the size 15 go? Also do you wear it 24/7 because yours still looks shiny and new!

It can fall pretty close to my hand when I’m cold but isn’t annoying at all. I do wear it 24/7 but I just had it cleaned by Cartier last weekend which has made it lovely & shiny :heart:

Do you happen to have a photo of how high it goes up the wrist? Trying to help my sister out who wants a thin instead of classic. I only have classics now. I think her wrist is the same size as yours.

Go for the small with 6 diamonds. I have 2 small love, one with 6 diamonds and one without. I wear them both together and I love it. It doesn't feel too much for everyday wear. I have a classic love as well that I stopped wearing because I kept dinging it and banging it everywhere and the scratches show so much. My small love on the other hand feels soooo comfortable. I sometimes wear both small loves together or just one alone. They look great either way. if you're ready to buy now, I would get the diamond version before they go up again in price.

I’m trying to decide between these two as well. I’m also looking for a more subtle, everyday bracelet like you are. More low key and doesn’t draw too much attention. If you don’t plan to stack then I’d vote for the one with diamonds since it has a little bling but I think the plain would be nice on its own as well. Those diamonds are tiny for the 2k price difference but it’s a really pretty bracelet. Both will stack well with other bracelets if you ever decided to in the future.

Exactly my thought! (: I love how lowkey it is and less likely to grab anyone’s attention. I also think the diamonds are so tiny for the price but I love the bling! And yes you’re right they do look great stacked. Do you think it would look good with a thin juc w diamonds or the plain sm love would look better with that? Just a thought !

I totally agree with you! One of my concerns were also the scratches showing up in the classic since I prefer it to be less noticeable. I think I’ll go with the diamonds and especially before the price increase I plan to!

Have the sm w/diamonds. They are soooo tiny and hardly noticable. Not really worth it in my eyes. For that amount I would go for the reg without diamonds.

This was one of my worries haha, I do feel theyre so tiny but I tried to justify it being (almost) the same price as the regular, or to maybe get a plain with a thin juc with diamonds but I’m not sure if I would wear that everyday ): hopefully I’ll be able to decide soon but thank you all for your input!

Ooh that is hard! I’ve seen it stacked both ways and both look great. Personally, the juc isn’t really my style but I love it on other people. You can’t go wrong with either but because I prefer the Love, then I’d pick two thin loves. However, if you like the juc, then I’d pick juc so you have one of each style and can also wear them separately for different looks.

I agree with the above. The size of the diamonds on the small just is not worth it. Tiny diamonds really have very little value. As a person who felt very similar to you having not worn a bracelet for years, I think it is easy to think the classic may be too much initially and it would be easier to go for the small, which I did and now wished I had just gone for the classic - as now I have both. Maybe it worked out for the best because I got the 4 diamond classic now which I may not have initially gone for the first time around.

I feel that if you get the small, you will love it so much and after a while, it looks very lonely and then you will wish you owned the classic, which can stand on its own and does not need a companion. I think you should just go for the classic and be over and done with it especially if you intend it for a "forever" bracelet.

The investment is greater in the long run. Comparing the two, the classic is way more "bang for the buck".
