Hi! I did tighten the screw the 90 degrees it’s supposed to be but there is like a millimeter of wiggle room still
Mine has a little bit of wiggle room. Actually I hadn't noticed it until I saw your question, but I know it's not super tight. I hope I'm explaining well.
I considered getting a second SM for my birthday, but ended up getting this baguette bangle from a jeweler in New York (Ring Concierge—she has some great stuff) because I wanted to add some sparkle. It is slightly thinner, but I am loving how they look stacked together!
What a pretty bangle from Ring Concierge! It looks perfect with your LOVE bracelet. How did you know what size to order?
I actually ended up sending them my Cartier (which is a size 15) so they could match it. The bangles are not exactly the same shape, so it’s not a 100% perfect match, but it is darn close! The RC staff was wonderful to work with throughout the process, though it did take some time (as custom jewelry typically does).
What about the weight of the bangle...the LOVE bracelets are nice and solid. What are your thoughts about the RC bangle?
The bangle is also solid gold. I messaged Ring Concierge on instagram prior to my purchase and asked lots of questions (total carat weight, color and clarity of the diamonds, weight in grams of the bracelet) and unfortunately I no longer have that message, but she did answer all of my questions promptly. The bangle weighs a bit less, but it is still comparable in weight to the Cartier Small Model Love Bracelet.
When I first put it on with my Cartier, I told my husband “dang my wrist is heavy... I feel like Kylie Jenner!” (ha!).
Anyone know if the screw system on Small Love bracelet can turn either direction and also if it can continue to turn from lock to unlock position going the same direction?
Wanted to know if mine is working properly.

Like you can spin it all the way around? It’s been awhile since I unlocked mine and now I wish I had my screwdriver with me to check!
Each ‘turn’ is only 90 degrees but I can either ‘complete the turn’ to open and close or turn and turn back on itself to open and close, so basically slot aligned with screws is locked and slot perpendicular is open, irrespective of which direction clockwise or counter I’ve turned the screw [emoji4]
