Looks beautiful! I usually like a looser fit, but I think a closer fit also looks great.

I think my SA called this the double ecrou
I like everything you’re wearing together!
For me though, this new ecrou is too literally hardware.
ok!!! so as i’ve posted before, i thought i was happy with the ecrou in 17 but my local cartier store in zurich finally received an 18 last night which meant i had to go try it on! got on the train this morning and went straight there to try it on. alas…i ended up exchanging the 17 for the 18. it was a hard decision because i truly loved how flush the 17 looked in a stack (see my previous posts) but the 18 is by far so much more comfortable. the 18 does overlap (see pics attached) but i can live with that trade off for comfort. even my SA said that i should go with the 18. in the end, this is about comfort and i could have problems in the summer when it’s warmer and my wrists swell a bit. now all my doubts are gone and i can finally (!!!) enjoy my husband’s christmas present to me (after my schizophrenic back and forth decision making process).

So glad you were able to exchange for the size you wanted! The Ecrou is really such a gorgeous piece
I'm interested to know wear and tear after a while, especially how the Love holds up with the overlap! I've definitely still got the Ecrou on my radar
there needs to be a half size. or they should just make half sizes. the bolts take up so much room and they account for about 5mm taken away from the inner circumference. if there was a 17.5, that would’ve been the perfect size!So glad you were able to exchange for the size you wanted!

good choice! Comfort comes first for me. You can try rearranging your items, and see if there is a way to stack without over lapping, including leveraging the nail head of the JUC in different ways, good luck.
Maybe you could try love, JUC and then ecrou? That might help. I think scratching on curved surfaces like the JUC would be far less noticeable than the flat surface of love.
congrats!

so...interesting thing about my current stack...i find that the ecrou actually very rarely overlaps the love as my arms are most of the time downward. something i didn't think about! the ecrou actually overlaps my JUC more because of the order i wear everything in. i've worn the bracelet for 24 hours straight now and have done all kinds of household chores and i can assure you, my ecrou hardly ever overlaps the love. i don't think anyone is constantly raising their hands up...and that is honestly the only time my ecrou would overlap the love because of the order i wear them in.
i've tried rearranging and for me, the most comfortable place for my love is at the end of my stack (closest to my elbow). i don't like how the love sits on my wrist near my hand. its hard to tell from pics but my love is actually a looser fit (it looks like a close fit in all the pics) and it is definitely much more comfortable furthest away from my wrist. my love wakes me up in the middle of the night because it gets caught in the "meatier" part of my arm and is uncomfortable. but i cannot imagine going down a size in the love because then, that would just be too fitted in the summer months.
Yes, I would go up a size. My SA recommended I get the same size as the love or one size up because the bolts will dig into your arm.
Update: I got my Ecrou in size 15 (Love 16, JUC 15). After wearing it for a few days, definitely no regrets on the bracelet or the sizing. Surprisingly it doesn’t feel too small at all!
The Ecrou is absolutely stunning!

The Ecrou is such a cool piece. I like that it is not a piece you see often or talked about and just one of those pieces that if you know, you know! Very unique!!

Thank you! I’m obsessed with my new Ecrou. I think I love it more than the others, which I was NOT expecting!
I love your index finger ring- may I ask where you purchased? It's beautiful!
I would personally add the JUC and then the Ecrou. The Ecrou looks better stacked with the JUC. in my opinion. Either way, you can't go wrong. They are both great pieces to own. I love both!Went to Cartier store last year to try on the Ecrou... a big mistake!
Still debating whether i should add JUC or Ecrou to my 3 love.
