Are you happy with your purchase? Any regrets? I love the simplicity of this bracelet, but it is quite expensive for a simple diamond bracelet. I have been going over my wishlist and can't decide if this is something I really want to purchase. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks

I love mine, which is in WG. it’s really a gorgeous stunning piece. I wish I bought it sooner. I had the same concern as you before I committed but now that it’s in my collection I know I should have trusted my gut. VCA ‘s melee are super beautifully cut and extremely white. The line of colorful fire always get me and the bangle itself is so sturdy and well made. No regrets.
What size did you get for your bangles and whats your wrist size?
I keep going back and forth between XS or S and just cannot decide so I have put this on the backburner.. however, i worry about the mechanism. Is it more prone to damage compared to 5 motif's simple clasp?
I used to like my bracelets fitting, but after trying 5 motif in 16.5cm and 16cm, i find i am finding 16.5cm more comfortable. although it is on the loose fitting end. Much more movement
Zero regrets like @EpiFanatic I tortured myself so much over this one! I kept on thinking whether it would be worth it given that it’s a simple diamond bracelet unlike the iconic Perlee Clover bracelet. I was so wrong! Not only it’s worth every cent for me but I get so much joy out of wearing this piece. It’s simple yet powerful! Just the right amount of bling for everyday wear. I LOVE it. Period.
My wrist is 5 inches and I always choose XS. I like them snug and even with XS, I have room. The on/off is much easier than the 5 motif. Really sturdy and hefty for the relatively delicate looking bracelet it is. I always hear a firm click when it closes.
I do also like that it is so low key. Most people would not know it’s VCA. BUT I do and I feel the quality and craftsmanship. And I love the beaded edges that make it so comfortable on my bony wrist.
If you like more room I would go with S.
I love all your modeling pics with this bangle. It just adds bold elegance and bling to every look. You rock this piece.
Thanks for sharing, my wrist is about 14cm. I initially thought i should go with XS and i also liked snug. How many cm are your 5 motifs? This is 6 links removed , 16.5cm on my 5 motif
But i am unsure if the perlee single row is too much bling for day to day or to the office..
I have both 6 and 8 links removed. I can wear both but 8 links removed is kinda hard to put on. 6 links is easier for on and off. My only below has 6 links removed.
Thanks so much! I think your wrist is smaller than mine it seems.. i think S is a more sustainable size for me.
I prefer to remove 8 links but the ratio is a bit unbalanced and yes, slightly harder to put on. Removing 6 links has made it a breeze to put on the 5 motif..
I am not sure if i need the perlee single row diamond bangle. I do love the look of it but i am unsure if i like bangles. I had something like the JIC, full round bangle and it just felt sometimes painful on my wrist. No where as comfy as 5 motif where i dont feel like i have anything on. If i do get a bangle, then it would be the perlee single row because i had realise i do not like the look of the clover or sweet clover anymore personally.. due to the mirrored finishing haha. I Love the look of cartier small love pave, but i cannot deal with the screw mechanism. Btw the serpenti and perlee single row, i think the latter is still more classic and less dressy
Yes, I think the S is the right size for you. I also am sensitive to things around my wrist. I even feel the 5 motif but I don't mind it. The love cuff was too uncomfortable for me so I sold it. I find the bead on the edge of the perlee bangles so comfortable. I always know I have a bracelet on, but it does not bother me. If I could get myself to keep my bracelets on for a couple of weeks, never taking it off, I'm sure I would get used to it, but I don't want to. I don't like the combined polished and the floral design of the clover either. I'm all one or the other, thus the signature and the diamond bangles for me. Everyone is different.
I considered the signature bangle, in fact i loved it at 1 point and wanted to get in XS. As i gave it some time, i realise i may not like bangles, also i dont like the mirrored finish and i prefer bling.Yes, I think the S is the right size for you.

So i started considering Sweet clovers. Reg clovers is gorgeous on others, but i dont feel the vibe for me.
That now brings me to the single perlee,but i am not sure if its worth its price tag for a simple pave bracelet .. like am I better off with a tennis bracelet.. decisions decisions. I hate tt as i sit here mullingz the prices have climbed so much
Yes, it surprises me what is and is not comfortable on me. The serpenti is a very specific look that I'm not always in the mood for. The single row is most me. And I think that is something you would know when you see it. So for you comfort is key. If it's not comfortable you just won't wear it. The bangle of course is not as carefree as the 5 motif, but I can also see myself really liking it when I am in my 60s and above when eyesight and fine motor skills become more of an issue.
I got my tennis bracelet about 6 years ago, and I don't love it or hate it. It's easy to wear but for me it does not feel special enough. Everyone is different though. If I had considered and tried more VCA at that time, I would have definitely bought VCA instead of the tennis bracelet. Well, live and learn.
I totally get that - sometimes i wonder if there is something wrong with me.. i dont feel that spark when i wear non branded pieces, or there is just something about VCA pieces that are so special and makes me so happy to wear them. Is it their marketing? Is it my brain ? Lol. I think its my heart...
Are ceramic watches all the same? Not for me.. rado and dior makes ceramic watches but Chanel J12 just gets me.. i feel wonderful wearing my J12s and i only need 1 white and 1 black one and i am at watch peace. My psyche is so.. perculiar even to myself. Ok, its just preferences lol
