Good size for tennis bracelet

I think for non branded tennis bracelets (from a jeweler) the size should be 5ctw and up. I think when it's a designer like Tiffany, you can get away with a smaller size because of their setting and extra details. Also pay attention to the prong setting. I find that my 4 prong setting takes away from my tennis bracelet and I would like it to be 3 prong like Rami's. I think her combination is so gorgeous, bright, and classic. I have a half bangle with a shared prong setting and it looks so much brighter and elegant than my tennis bracelet.

Hi,

Why do you think the 4 prong doesn't work?
 
Hi all, thanks for all your help... you know what? After thinking and thinking about a tennis bracelet, I went to a jeweller I know... and bought 2 pairs of earrings! Lol. For those of you who may know, I've only ever bought earrings. So much for the bracelet then. I've used up my jewellery fund this year... and my regular jeweller has designed another pair I'm tempted to get!

Now the plan for tennis bracelet has to be deferred... hahaha
 
My tennis bracelet is four pronged and I think 4.4 carats. I find that the setting doesn't allow enough light to reflect in the diamonds.

Mine is the same and I haven't noticed the light being blocked. I can't wear it during the work day as it scratches up my computer, but I do like it.
