Hello,

I have decided to purchase the Cartier Panthere watch but am stuck between two sizes. The small looks elegant and had a vintage look whereas the medium is much more prominent and substantial on the wrist. Please vote and help me decide I’d love your input/opinion. Thank you!

small

Interesting. I think both actually work on you. Probably depends on how you wear it and what other jewelry you'll wear it with.

I like the medium as sort of a stand alone piece but I like the small when it's stacked with the love bracelet.

Are you planning on wearing this watch alone? Or will you wear it with other bracelets?

Beautiful watch for sure!

I love both sizes. Ideally, I’d like to stack the love bracelet with it but I think it would scratch too much because of the bezel on the side. I will likely wear it alone. I thought I was going to purchase the small today but now I’m having second thoughts.

For gold I'd get the small... You really can't go wrong with either. They both look great on you.

They both work on you, as others have mentioned, so I think it comes down to what you want this watch to do for you. Do you want a statement piece? A bold, modern, almost chunky look? Or do you want simple, understated elegance with a touch of femininity?

I think this is so, so subjective. I personally cannot stand a small watch - like literally would never purchase anything smaller than 36mm, and even then that's pushing it for me!

I also noticed that you wore the small stacked with a love, but you wore the medium on its own. Which do you think you will wear in your daily life? Will you stack this watch?

They both look amazing on you so I’m clearly of no help.

That being said, how is your eyesight and will you regret getting the small down the track? Can you tell the time clearly when you wear the small?

Which size makes your heart sing when you look at it on the wrist?

I love both looks! I’d wear it as an everyday watch though. I love the way it looks stacked but I likely won’t stack it because it will scratch like crazy, especially next to the bezel. It’s a hard decision. I do think it is a beautiful watch either way

Ha both sizes make my heart sing in different ways To be honest, I don’t think I’d wear it much for the time. I haven’t worn a watch in about 12 years. I just love the way the watch looks and I figured I’d invest in a timepiece to start. I do wonder how I would feel a decade from now. Would I think the small is too trendy? I’m not quite sure. I’m still torn but I think it will come to me with a little more time.

I love the way this watch looks too so in my eyes, it’s a classic. I can only dream of buying the solid gold with diamonds version

Take your time making a decision and let us know how you go!

With this much bling I’d choose the small one. But both look proportional and good on you.

Small for sure. Looks more elegant on your wrist.

That is true, the gold watches will definitely scratch up more easily since they are softer. If I bought a gold watch I'd probably wear it alone as well.
Then, as my husband would say, go big or go home! Get the medium!

Haha, but jokes aside, you can't really go wrong! Whichever one you end up getting, congratulations and enjoy!

Visually - not too much, I guess it depends on your lifestyle. However as others said you’ll see dents and scratches on your gold sooner than if it was a steel watch. I used to have a gold Cartier Ronde Solo as a daily watch and found it impractical due to low water resistance and softness of gold. If you’re a careful person and/or baby your stuff then go for it, it’s a beautiful watch.
