Hope you are enjoying your watch!!
I still haven't decided on mine yet, got the LB instead. So the watch is next on my list.
How do you like YG with diamonds? How many links did you have to remove?
Hey @vcaalhambra , how are you?
You went for the Love? Great! Congratulations. Which color did you choose?
I love my watch. Every time I see it, my heart jumps a bit. It was the right desicion to go with gold. I still like the look of the steal with the diamonds, but for me gold is perfect. I am also very, very happy that I went for the small modell. The look is timeless and goes with everything. Even casual outfits.
And yes, I still like the diamonds. They are not necessary, it is a beautiful watch with or without it, but they add a little “color”.
So.. as you can tell, I am still in love
. And I am very happy that I went for the Panthere. In my family or my circle of friends, nobody wears this kind of “jewellery watch”. If they care about watches, they go for Omega, Rolex etc. But these kind of round, big watches are just not pleasing to me at the moment and I am more than happy that I went for my Panthere instead.
I just checked it, I removed two links. The watch is still loose, but I like it this way.

Glad to know you love the watch! It is stunning!! I went for YG with 4 diamonds Love. I love it, my second biggest piece of jewelry in YG, most of my stuff is in WG. It's a nice changeHey @vcaalhambra , how are you?

) Thanks for letting me know about the links. Couple of years ago, I had an issue with ss w/diamonds, I was 'in between' 2 and 3 links. 2 was way too lose but removing 3 was a little too tight so I ended up getting earrings instead. Still not sure if it was a defect with that watch. Moving forward, I am still debating between ss/diamonds (give it another try), two tone or maybe solid gold a little bit later. I totally agree that this watch is so elegant, you can't compare it with Omega or Rolex. What do you think of VCA watch? Two more items on my wish list (VCA watch and Panthere) 
Do you have your email address? I will post some of the LB pics.Hey @vcaalhambra , how are you?

I think Panthere is the most elegant and feminine watch! Congrats!!
I just wanted to say I really love the pictures of your gold panthere. It’s truly elegant and am so glad to hear you love it, and love the small model. I’m hoping to get the small ss model early next year (its so hard to wait!!)Hey @vcaalhambra , how are you?

just out of curiosity - what size is your wrist? Or what size is your love bracelet? did Cartier recommend removing two links? I’m hoping to get the loose fit look as well
it’s just so pretty that way! Please post more mod shots in the future. We need more eye candy on this topic 
Speaking of removing the links and the size of love bracelet, I am size 16 for the bracelet. Had an issue with the Panthere couple of years ago (it was ss with diamonds). Removing 2 links was way too big but removing 3 was a little too tight so I decided not to go for it. But want to give it another try. Still haven't decided which one to get yet but definitely small size. SS is great, the only reason why I am not for it for myself is because I already have 2 watches in SS so definitely ready for new look.I just wanted to say I really love the pictures of your gold panthere.

Good to know! Thanks! I’m a size 16 in love bracelet too. Definitely will need to try it out myself as I’m sure I’ll have to get used to the loose fit regardless (all the watches I’ve worn has always been on the tight side.)
and good luck deciding!

Hey Lishukha, thank you so much for your nice words. I would be happy to show more pictures, but because it is always the same watch I don‘t know... perhaps there is a thread that is more suitable for this purpose? I don’t want to spam here in this topic.
oh, what color do you want for your Panthère?
My wrist is 14 cm. I think my love bracelet is the smallest size available.
Yes, my lovely SA removed the Links. The original band was definitely too loose. We played around a little bit. We wanted to get the “bracelet look” and removed two links and three links. We gave it a little time, but then we decided to go with the looser fit, so he put in one more link.
For the summer time I really liked the loose fit. But now it gets a lot colder and I am thinking about getting one more link removed, because of all the coats and gloves... but I am not sure.
Glad to know you love the watch! It is stunning!! I went for YG with 4 diamonds Love. I love it, my second biggest piece of jewelry in YG, most of my stuff is in WG. It's a nice change
Oh, a really nice choice for your love bracelet. I am so curious what size and Modell you will choose for your Panthère.
I like the artsy, playful approach of the VCA Watch. Is the band available in other colors? It is a beautiful piece! Do you have a bracelet from this line? I always admire them in the pictures.
I don't have a bracelet from VCA, I have necklace and earrings (Alhambra and Frivole). I think the best bracelets are LB from Cartier!!! Wearing mine every day, loving it
Thanks for all the info on the Panthere. I am still thinking about it, I was originally debating between ss with diamonds and two tone. Then I also liked the Alhambra/flower shaped VCA watch. But on the other hand, I am now thinking that maybe it makes sense to get Panthere in YG and not get VCA (I love the design but there are some cons such as there are no numbers). So still thinking. I suppose I could get Panthere two tone or ss + VCA or just get Panthere in gold. Which one would you go for? Assuming I alrady have two ss watches. Hard choice
I also love the bracelet look! This is the issue I had with ss in the past, I was in between the links. My wrist I think is 15 cm, I am size 16 in LB, the smallest size is now 15 for LB but it only came out a couple of years ago.
Thanks! I am still deciding. Like I mentioned before, I suppose I could get two tone Panthere and VCA watch eventually or just go for Panthere in gold. They are all so beautiful it is so hard to decide. When are you getting yours? Have you tried them? Is this your first Cartier watch? This is so exciting!!!! I bet you can't wait!!!Good to know! Thanks! I’m a size 16 in love bracelet too. Definitely will need to try it out myself as I’m sure I’ll have to get used to the loose fit regardless (all the watches I’ve worn has always been on the tight side.)

For VCA watch, you can choose the color of the strap. The default is pink but you can choose second one of any color. Of course I prefer black strap. SA sent me these photos.

It will not be until early next year
I got my small love bracelet in August and tried on some Tank watches then in the store but didn’t become aware of the panthere until after my trip there (I don’t have a store near where I live had had to make a 10 hour round trip to visit one!). Im eager to try one on in a few months and hope I would love it as much as I love seeing them on others!
