Hi all,
I recently got the JUC SM. I thought the SM was a bit more low key and would be more versatile when dressing more business-casual (sport coat) or casual and I liked the simplicity of the method to take on or off. I have a nearly 16cm wrist and got an 18 because the 17 was hard to put on/take off.
But I felt that it was a too loose and didn't love that it felt so flimsy.
I figured I would prefer a more snug fit and would have to get the regular JUC instead of the SM to make it work. It arrived today and it's quite the upgrade! It just feels so solid and substantial and I much prefer the fit of the 17, though it's hard to put it on without getting my skin caught in the hinge (already cut myself, ouch!). I also think that the proportions of the regular look better than the SM, somehow it just looks a bit off to my eyes when it got scaled down.
I also opted for PG instead of YG as I have some Montblanc pens that have PG accents.
I was curious as to the weight difference as I noticed just how hefty the regular felt. Found a digital scale at work and weighed them.
I find it interesting that the SM weighs less than 1/3 but costs about 45% of the regular (not even factoring the weight of the wire in the SM).

Great choice! I have the regular sized JUC as well, and it is much more sturdy and has much more presence than the thin version. I have a wire Tiffany bangle (the Tiffany T with diamonds), and I would NOT purchase another flexible wire bracelet ever again--regardless of brand. Flimsy and light (which I guess some people might like for lifestyle reasons), but easy to bend out of shape.Hi all,

Did i read montblanc pens? I am in love with fountain pens at the moment. Amazing choice of JUC

Yes!
I have a few fountain pens (Meisterstuck LeGrand, M, F. Scott Fitzgerald) and also a few ballpoints (StarWalker, Rouge et Noir, Meisterstuck Classique).

Regular JUC definitely looks better! Great choice.
Hello jewelery friends! I have found this thread really helpful in the years i have been lusting after the JUC lol. I finally got one in plain yellow gold. I have been wearing it with my Love bangle for a few days and i already see wear and tear on the nail head. Nothing terrible but i just wanted to let you know that you need a soft bracelet between both pieces if you want your JUC looking great. Gold is really soft and i can tell that over time it will flatten and scratch that side of the round head

I bought JUC bracelet with diamonds and wore it for short period. Unlike plain JUC bracelet, casing of nail head left two lines of dent on my wrist. Also I feel little discomfort from the lines in the nail heads.
Is this normal? Or Will you get used to it after a while?

I just heard that they are releasing JUC small with diamond. Omg I didn’t know this ! And now I’m very torn between :
- thin juc with diamond due to be released
- regular juc no diamon
HELP!
- thin juc with diamond due to be released
- regular juc no diamon
HELP!

Ive finally settled for diamond one. (Sold plain YG JUC bought less than an year ago and lost a couple of thousand dallors selling it) so far I love it. I will embrace this beauty for the longest time. Thanks for letting me share.

My nail head is noticeably flat on the side that hits my Love and the edge of my Love has a ridge where the nail head hits it. I knew this would happen before wearing them together since this was mentioned on the forum before I purchased mine.
I don’t let it bother me since I choose to wear them next to each other and I never take them off. They will eventually get scratched and worn looking anyway. No one but me can notice the flat side and ridge either.
But it’s always good for people to be aware of if they don’t want that happening.
Hi. I was thinking of doing the same thing.....how much did you end up selling it for and where did you sell it? Was it worth it? I'm trying to decide if it's worth it
