New love cuff or preowned bangle?

I'm in the same debate over the cuff and the bangle. Even though there's an obvious difference in price, I would think about your lifestyle/comfort factors over the money. You can always save a little longer like a lot of people already suggested.

As of your lifestyle, if wearing the bangle 24/7 isn't something that suits you, I would go with the cuff. I'm not sure what's the "max" amount of times you can take it off without damaging the screws, but I would imagine it's not all that many times. (I wear two solid bangles now that slip off my wrist and I do take them off from time to time)

That being said a lot of people complain that the cuff isn't as comfortable. That's the way it seems at least.

I'm kind of leaning towards the cuff myself even though I love the story/idea behind the bangle. For me, I think it's going to come down to lifestyle.

Very true. I like the idea of something left on all the time but I know there are occasions and things I do that I will need to take it off. I had a Bvlgari b zero cuff that was more comfortable than the bangle version I wear now to be honest. I only changed because I like the width and weight of the b zero bangle over the cuff. The love cuff is quite substantial and the same width as the bangle so as long as the cuff is the right shape for my wrist I'm pretty sure it should be comfortable. I will definitely try both on in the boutique several times to make sure though! Good luck with your decision too :)
 
Quick update! I went to Cartier today and having tried both on came home with my Love cuff in white gold size 17 :panic:
I am absolutely thrilled with it. I love the way it fits, fairly flush to my wrist but not too tight if that makes sense. I won't have to worry about loose screws (which I would have done!) and I can take it off if I want to.
Definitely think I've made the right choice :smile:
