I would say get the JUC if you have always wanted it! I've always loved the regular JUC, but somehow ended up purchasing a bunch of other bracelets, necklaces, etc from Cartier, including a small JUC. At this point I feel like a regular JUC bracelet would be too much and too repetitive for my collection, but I still want it! It's ridiculous but I feel like I might end up purchasing it anyways at some point. So if you know that that's something you love, just get it first.
I could foresee doing the same as you did that getting other Cartier items then eventually add a reg. JUC and end up paying more for the same piece due to price increases. lol. 😂. Ok I am making myself clear now JUC stays on top of my list and move forward until it’s checked off. Thank you!!
I know lol! There is considerable difference between the sizes… but better looser than tighter, I suppose.
I just bought a pair of mini flash earrings a couple days ago. I agree the post is too short (I do have chubby earlobes). My SA suggested to change the post from 8mm to 10mm; Not sure why they don’t go with a 10mm post in the first place.. I haven’t gotten the earrings back yet. Will report back when I try them on again.
Would you mind sharing a side view of the earrings so I can see the length of the posts? I am going to buy these, but I wonder if my loves are too thick also. Thank you.
I don’t have the earrings right now as I’m changing to the longer post. Ill definitely post some pics when I get it back in a couple weeks 😀

@tinyasianbaglover It’s not just me then! I went into Cartier at the weekend to ask about a repair because of how difficult they were to get off and because one of the hinges was so stiff. They ended up exchanging them for me and now that I’m not struggling to get them off, they aren’t causing me any discomfort.
Thank you very much. I had remembered them to be full hoops like this, so do you know how they can accommodate a larger earlobe if the post is extended? Wouldn’t the post just extend past the hoop barrier itself?
@nicole0612 I can’t quite figure out how extending the post would work from a design pov because if I don’t close mine all way, which is how I presume they would look with a 2mm extension, they’re not completely circular. To be fair though, you wouldn’t really notice it when they’re on as it’s a subtle difference in shape.
Despite the issues with my first pair, I love wearing them as I find they’re subtle enough for daily wear but also add something extra/different to my outfits.

I have all three (JUC, Clash and Ecrou). I bought JUC, Clash then Ecrou last. I initially thought 1 is enough so I bought the JUC which is a classic piece. 😅 If you ask me, I prefer the look for Ecrou and Clash. Ecrou is more of an understated Cartier piece, not so common which is good. Plus, both are edgy pieces. But if you like a more subtle look, JUC and Clash can blend well together. Honestly, you can never go wrong with either. Btw, if you do plan to get the Ecrou I suggest you size 1 up from your Clash size. Though it looks bigger while worn, comfort wise it's so much better. For reference, I wear JUC and Clash (size 17) and Ecrou (size 18). Goodluck with your decision!
Can anyone tell me whether the medium size clash fits slightly more snug than the small size? I’ve only tried the small and I’m in between the 15 and 16 and was wondering if the medium 16 may be a better choice if it fits a little tighter…Bonus that it also comes in YG!
