You are welcome! Not to go off topic, but I LOVE my Plume de Paon ring and absolutely recommend it! It makes me happy looking down and seeing it on my finger and gets tons of compliments. It is very pretty but also wearable (not too big.)

That's excellent to know. The whimsy of the feathers really speak to me. I see one of the pieces in my future. The colored versions are divine as well, but I'm not brave/bold enough for that.
I wear my sweet pave bracelet a lot. It’s a “forget it’s even on” piece for me. But how about a tennis bracelet in WG if you don’t already have one. It’s clean and sporty.
I do have one that I never wear. Clean is an excellent description but it feels too fancy. It’s not even a large tcw. But I never forget it’s on.
I’ve seen your photos and comments on the other forum. “Forget it’s on” is what I’m looking for. I like sporty but I also like delicate and feminine. The sweet fits all my wants and needs if I can mentally move past the flipping. I have a feeling once I have it on I would. I tend to overthink things up front and then embrace them on the back end.
I love your collection. Cohesive and beautiful!
I find the sweet too dainty for me. Personal preference. You sound like you love guilloche so I would get that. One of my staff wears a guilloche daily and it still shines bright. I would never be able to tell scratches while in use. Another option is the onyx pave. Gives you the size of vintage, part pave, daily use and works with sporty.
You have received such great advice already so I will be brief! I love vintage motifs for bracelets BUT that RG hammered 6-motif as showcased by @Prada Prince or the pave WG 6-motif showcased by @EpiFanatic @Swellgal @spaul @citykitty24 @lisawhit are the BOMB! They wear it so beautifully and the sweets seem to work seamlessly into their lifestyle. I feel it’s all about the power of styling. You can rock ANYTHING with confidence and aplomb if you wear them with confidence ♥️
Photos for context:
My tennis bracelet that is super rarely worn with the thin daily “permanent” bracelet I’m looking to replace. With my favorite pearls of gold band, medium size.
The other photo is my wedding set and Apple Watch for workout tracking, otherwise the Tank Must size small. I’m actually going to replace my Apple with the Hermes version but working down my VCA list first.
Honestly I want the guilloche and the sweet pave. I should get the more expensive one first. I suppose I could stack the guilloche with my mop for special occasions?
Maybe both in the long term is the best decision.

I have eliminated the onyx pave because I don't like high contrast. I'm definitely a muted palate girl.
The other pieces have considered are Cartier Clash or Santos link bracelets but I have read mixed reviews about their white gold alloy.
This is so true. I'm frankly an insecure mushy marshmallow on the inside which likely leads to my indecisiveness. I'm thankful my son is a supremely confident person.
Aww it takes a highly confident parent to raise a confident kid so kudos to you and your parenting style ♥️♥️
There is nothing wrong with being indecisive. You are being careful with your money and making sure you make the right choice for yourself.
I love BOTH the sweet pave and the WG Guilloche options for you. Maybe you will add both down the line? Just a question of which comes first ♥️
I’d recommend starting with the sweet pave, then. Once you have it you might love it and feel no need for the guilloche.
Have you tried on the guilloche? Vintage guilloche is quite a bit heavier than the Sweet pave. I love heavy bracelets and rings so the guilloche works well for me but it sounds like the sweet would be a better match for you right now.
I think you are correct for a daily piece, I'm not a fan of heavy pieces. It's a good thought that I may not even want the second piece if I love the pave. We have a very casual lifestyle with extremely rare dress up opportunities so I'm not sure how much of a fancy jewelry wardrobe I need (vs want of course).
I think the Sweet Pavé would work really well with your permanent bracelet and when you add in your tennis bracelet, the tennis bracelet becomes the star of the show. Then you can get the Guilloché when you have recovered from purchasing the Sweet. Jewelry math, plain and simple. 😊
I’ve already added a guilloche set (bracelet and earrings) to my running wish list in my phone. Followed right behind by a frivole set (single ring and earrings). 🤦🏼♀️.
