I have both and there is a small difference in weight between the 9mm and 12mm, it depends on what you are looking for really, the 9 is tiny but sits really well on my neck on a 16" chain, my 12 is on an 18" chain and again looks great! My pic above of my collection shows them all quite well!

thank you so much for answering!! also, would you say that for $125, the 9mm feels substantial even though it's so small?

I was set on a 9mm bean, but when I went to the store with DH I ended up settling on the 12mm. I was attracted to the 12mm being slightly more weighty but still a dainty size. Have you tried them on? Its worth it if you can. I would still love a diamond bean one day! (Dreaming....;)

no, I'm definitely not anywhere I can try them on.. which is maybe why I should wait until I can :(
 
Heres my 9mm bean i ordered for myself for Christmas. I'm going to exchange it for the 12 because I'm just not fully happy. I also wanted the tiffany and elsa peretti stamped on the back which it wasn't at this size for some reason. I guess I'm weird but if you're spending the money you want it to be what you really want

The 9mm looks lovely on you. Was it just the stamp you were unhappy about? I was given a 12mm in 2014 and that doesn't have a stamp on the back either.

Thank you and no, it wasn't just the lack of the stamp, it was when I opened it I was immediately disappointed and it was just way too small for me. I just realized the picture is sideways, uploaded from mobile.. sorry everyone lol

I totally can understand you.
I have the 9mm YG bean and I am disappointed too.
It is to small.
Unfortunately I cannot give it back.
I will add the 12mm SS bean to it,
maybe this will work.

I understand. I was sure I wanted the 9mm but when DH and I went to the store to choose one, the 12mm was the one. Its still dainty but you can see a little more detail. Can you exchange the 9mm?

I'm not anywhere close to a Tiffany, so I just ordered the 12mm a few nights ago and it should be here in a few days.. then I'll make my final comparison and probably return the 9mm. I really wanted the 12 in the first place, but because I bought with Christmas money, I got the 9 since it was cheaper.

Good call ordering the 12. Let us know which one you prefer, will be interested to hear.
 
did you get it as a gift?

No :nogood:
I bought it myself.
My SA told me that the mini bean would suit me and
I always wanted a gold bean.....it was cheaper as the 12mm and
I thought it will work.
Then I waited to long to give it back.
In the meanwhile I extended the chain to 17IN so that I can layer the bean
with other necklaces.
But I am still angry with myself that I didn't listen to my heart.

Lesson learned, I suppose ;)
