A few questions-

1. Anyone have pictures of their rose or yellow gold? Trying to get a better idea of the difference before I order. Don’t have a local store and when I went to try on they only had rose gold.

2. Is the sizing chart on the site accurate? Debating sizing up because my wrist size is on the border of 17, close to 18. I tried on a 17 in the store and it was good, but don’t want this to be small in a few years. I’m in my late 20s. I was a 16 in the JUC bracelet.

My very first Cartier purchase was my YG Ecrou bracelet size 19 and at the time thought it was the perfect fit. I followed it with a size 19 YG SM bracelet. Eventually continued to grow my stack and tried on size 18 YG JUC and I like the fit of my JUC more than my Ecrou and my SA told me the JUC and Ecrou should have the same sizing which is one size down from the loves. When I just stack my JUC and Ecrou bracelets they look great but just more noticeable movement with the Ecrou. If I could do it all again I would’ve purchased the Ecrou in a size 18. Since my Ecrou was my first purchase I’ll prolly never get rid of it. For reference my wrist is 17.5 cm and I’m a dude. Hope that helps u out

Great collection!
Have you considered moving it to the end where your arm is thicker?

I should have taken your advice, I think. I remeasured and I’m closer to 15.5 cm. My SA recommended 17, which is my love size. It feels a bit loose, like it goes over my palm just a bit. It’s weird because the size chart online recommends you to go with the same size as your love size.

I want to exchange it, but it’s gonna be such a hassle if I send it back and 16 is too small.

Did you try on the 18? An 18 is supposed to be 17.5 cm with the bolts, which is the size of your wrist. I’m in the same situation with 15.5 cm wrists. 16 (15.5 cm with the bolts) wouldn’t seem like it would work. Maybe it has something to do with the shape

Did you end up keeping the 17? How do you feel about the sizing now?
