Juste Un Clou Bracelet (JUC) Discussion

I'm looking to get my first bracelet as a reward for myself (survived a tough year at work!)... Tried on the slim JUC size 16 and regular JUC size 15 and can't decide which looks better on my wrist? Have actually been eyeing the slim JUC with diamonds (tried the plain slim JUC for sizing) for the longest time but I also like how the plain regular JUC makes a statement on its own.

I was thinking I could probably wear the slim JUC with diamonds on its own too but my SA suggested stacking the slim JUC.

Would love to hear from everyone here! I'm just a newbie buying my first piece and slowly building up my collection/stack:smile:

Definitely the regular size JUC. I don’t know, but I personally hate the look of the SM one. I know it is cheaper, but if you will Invest in a piece like this and you can afford it, the price won’t be taking in consideration, just what you like the most.
 
What is everyone's opinion about the small JUC compared to the reg sized one? I just can't justify spending $7.5k right now and prefer the price point of the small one instead, but heard it's hollow compared to the regular which is solid. Does it bend a lot or frequently bend out of shape?

I'd be wearing it with my LOVE bracelet. I don't have a Cartier in my state anymore, so I'd have to order it online.
You’ll find people have mixed feelings about it. I have the small size. It is lightweight and hollow. I personally like that it’s not as cumbersome as the full sized version. I haven’t had any issues with it bending out of shape either (although I know some people have). But I love mine. It’s stacked with loves too.
But with all that said, it you really like the full sized version and the only thing holding you back is the price, don’t get the small. Get the one you truly want. Even if that means waiting a bit until you can get it. Because you’ll still think about it. Plus, these things aren’t cheap. Don’t settle.
 
I'm so confused. 2 SAs told me the regular JUC cannot be special ordered in size 14. They said it is impossible because of the hinge. What is the truth? I desperately want a size 14 JUC. I would pay the custom order fee if it was possible.

eta: nvm, I see what you mean. So a custom order is possible for 11cm to 13.25 cm. But no 14cm. That is so weird. I wonder why...unfortunately I think a 13.25 would be too small for me, and wouldn't match up with my size 15 loves.
Hi @Glitterbomb and @ShopTil_iDrop, were either of you ever able to place a custom order for a size 14 cm (or smaller) Juste Un Clou bracelet. I have been given different answers but two different SAs and can’t seem to figure this out with clarity. I have a major milestone coming up and thought I’d be able to celebrate it with a JUC bracelet. FWIW, I have a 15 cm Love Bracelet and the 15 cm JUC is too large on me. Thanks!
I'ver been trying to order a 14 in the regular JuC with diamonds for ages, in the US and in Paris, and so far it has not been possible.

I wear a 14-15 Love, but actually I have been OK with a size 15 JuC. It's not as snug as I would like but it's fine.

I have the regular size JUC (with diamonds) and love it. I felt the same way as you - the small JUC price was more attractive. However it bothered me that the small JUC was very light. I felt like it would get caught on my clothing/sleeves easily and bend out of shape, which would drive me crazy. That instantly made it less attractive *to me*.

We never had a Cartier in my state, so at times I've ordered multiple sizes/colors so I can personally see my options and try them on at home. Whenever you're ready to make your purchase, you can order both sizes from Cartier and return the one you don't love. I think it's important you try on both sizes and see what feels right to *you*. You might prefer the lightness of the small JUC. But if you end up loving the regular size JUC, it would be worth the wait until you can make that purchase :smile:. (I had a similar ordeal with VCA diamond earrings. The Sweet Alhambra price point was more ideal than the Vintage Alhambra price. But the Sweet were too tiny for my liking, so I changed my entire wishlist and waited a couple years until I was able to purchase the Vintage size. It was worth the wait!).

I have the small JUC and love it. I love bracelets but I don’t like wearing heavy ones. So the small JUC is perfect for me. However, I think you should wait for the reg JUC because that’s the one you want. Don’t settle!

thanks. Good to know! The 15 cm moved too much, I am so used to the fit of my love. Trying to avoid the prospect of ending up with something else and then magically, a 14 cm goes into production! Wear in good health.

I love the small juc with diamonds, especially if you stack it with Cartier love bracelets. Personally for me it is much more feminine and eye-catching than the regular size. Favorite stack is with 4 love bracelets with small juc.

No, I wasn't. I was told it was impossible. I ended up going for the size 15 and I gained some weight so they actually fit me pretty well now. And now my size 15 loves are tight.... :sad:

I purchased the juste un clou in rose gold online, I'm just not sure if I should have gone yellow gold I'm not sure if it suits my skin tone. I don't have a boutique near me so I couldn't try it on in person. This is my first purchase if you guys could give me your opinion that would be really appreciated :) x

It looks like it blends with your skin tone so it depends on the look you want. Yellow gold would be more of a pop.

I think rose gold flatters most skin tones, including yours. Yellow gold would be brighter, less subtle. Personally I can't wear YG as my skin tone is a funny mix of ethnicities that can look a bit sallow :)
