Didn't make it to jeweler yesterday. Still contemplating the Cartier Love Cuff in YG. One SA said the one with a diamond is great cause it is dressier. Another said plain one is more classic and more common or popular. For some reason, I can't get past the "J" color stones of the tennis bracelet. What if they are "K"? I feel "safer" with the Love and always wanted YG. I have until Dec.22 to decide but may have it shipped after Thanksgiving.
tennis bracelet or another LOVE (Cartier)?

If you are going with another Love are you set on the cuff and not the bracelet? I was debating between them and 2 SA's both told me to go with the bracelet (it is more expensive..) but I much preferred the bracelet.
I think I'd do the cuff. I can't decide though between plain or with one diamond! I have a WG plain Love bangle which is a pain when I travel. I also feel that when I'm wearing the WG bangle, that my other bracelets don't get worn. So I think I'd be happiest with the cuff.
I didn't have a problem going through security with mine, right after I got it. I didn't set off any alarms. I wonder if the new screw system doesn't set off the metal detectors like the old screw system does? I think the 1 diamond cuff would be pretty with your others.
don't listen to what the SA's say, just follow your gut and buy what makes you the happiest. the J stones could be amazing, give them a chance and don't judge the colour before seeing the bracelet
This! Like I said . My ering is a J and triple ex's. The cut is what makes it sparkle. It is a high J, about an I since it is GIA cert.don't listen to what the SA's say, just follow your gut and buy what makes you the happiest. the J stones could be amazing, give them a chance and don't judge the colour before seeing the bracelet
If you are stuck on color, you may never be happy with it though. I am not a color snob. but a cut snob. LOL. It is all about how the diamonds are cut.
Yes, but higher color means higher costs! They had one with a color of "G-H" that was well over $9,000 for almost same tcw! I was looking to stay at around $5,000. And yes, the "J" stones are set in white gold. I'm thinking of getting a Cartier YG Love cuff instead. We'll see.
I don't know how big each diamond is. But my jeweler has a 4.25 tcw color "J" SI1-SI2 in white gold for $4400. Still haven't seen it in person yet. It is about an hour and a half journey and we've been having lots of rain here. Waiting for a nice day to make the ride.
My guess is each diamond would be around 8-9 pointers, based on an average of 50 diamonds. Rap prices have dropped for melee diamonds so I'm sure you can shop around for a better deal. J SI doesn't seem very good quality to me. Mine is H and I can see the yellow tinge, which annoys me since I like my diamonds really white. I don't know where you're from, or if you have access to more jewellers, but I've seen much better quality diamond tennis bracelets for less. Have you compared with some of the popular retailers online?
