I just got my JUC sz 15. My wrist measures 14.5cm (5 3/4inches). Did I get it too small?

Hmmm...hard to say. I see that the JUC rolls down your wrist quite far. But then in your other pics, where JUC is close to the wrist, there doesn't seem like a ton of room there either.

I think it's fine so far, but in the long term, perhaps you should size up 1 size just in case you put on weight, get bloated in the summer, or have a child. In resell value, I would also think a size 16 would be an easier sell than a 15.
 
in person everyone keeps telling them it looks fine. The larger size went down far on my arm so I was on the fence. This kind of feels like part of me.

I just ordered this one too and got a size 16! Fits perfectly and my wrist size is 15.8cm or 6.25 inches. How do you like yours so far? Do you take it on and off or wear it 24/7? I am too scared to leave mine on 24/7 but definitely want to in the future. I can’t wait to stack her with other bracelets soon!!

Omg I’m obsessed but I keep worrying that I got the wrong size. It’s very comfortable on but I notice some people wear them looser so I’m confused ! Can you send me more pics of how yours fits on your wrist ? How much space you have ? So far yes I have. I keep thinking I should put it in the box in case I need to exchange it.

I think it looks fine, judging by how it's able to go so far down the wrist! The 16 does look large on you.
We have the same sized wrist, I'm also 14.5 cm but unfortunately I don't own any Cartier just yet so I can't compare, but your post is really helpful to me.
 
Thanks for replying !

Yes apparently 14.5cm is very small wrist size. Nonetheless, my jeweler is going to let me try a 16 to see if I exchange it. I’ll post a pic and let you ladies see the fit and which one I end up going with. I’m leaning towards exchanging it for a 16 right now. I already am craving the rainbow love and the 4-Diamond love and if I don’t have much room then they will feel like a block. Especially as summer is approaching. Let’s see.

Yes, please do update us! :smile:

I've read several posts about how people with 14.5 cm wrists bought size 16 love bracelets, and apparently most people buy their JUC and love with one size difference, the JUC being a size down from the love (I think(, but I think this just makes it more confusing. Like this topic here: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/is-my-small-love-too-big-for-my-wrist.1014379/#post-33229439 and here https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...scussion-thread.867278/page-612#post-33044871

So many ladies with size 14.5 wrists buy their love in size 16, so I would guess that since JUC is typically bought a size down from that, your size 15 is probably the right size. But your comfort is the most important thing! Just make sure you feel comfortable, and if not, maybe size up!
 
It’s perfect. The JUC sizing should be one size down from the love bracelet. So for example if you wear a love bracelet size 16 (which is what Cartier would recommend for your wrist size: Wrist size + 1.5cm) you should get a JUC size 15. For whatever reason the JUC runs larger (relative to the love bracelet) It’s so confusing. But this size is perfect for you. BUT if you want a looser fit, go for a size up. I personally think the size is perfect on you. It looks great! I have love bracelets in size 17 and my JUC is in size 16. They stack perfectly. Hope that helps!

Good to know. Thanks!
 
Hi Charlotte! Did you get to try the 16? I habe been in the same dilemma. I have wrist size 14.5 - first got the 16 - exchanged it for a 15 and soon had regrets - most of the time it was a great fit- however in the evenings it was pretty snug. My lovely SA exchanged it for a 16 today, big relief!!! You are probably like me just between sizes so depends on your personal preference.
