Same here, When I bought de medium Clash I thought about this stacking first (love and plain YG JUC)

After a few weeks I went again to the Cartier store and tried the JUC with diamond. So confused now also because of the price point. 5000 euros more for a 0,59 crt diamonds that had me not yet make the buy! My husband keeps saying that I will regret it if I take the plain one because my stack not contain any sparkle of diamonds!

What a luxery problem

My experience is that because my stacking right now don’t have any sparkle (plain reg love + plain reg juc), I have to get a new diamond bracelet as soon as possible (nailed down to a $22k one! I think most jewelry lovers would be not satisfied without bling bling in the end…) Good thing is that I think a plain JUC and a plain love would be a balanced background for a diamond bracelet in the middle. Bad thing is that if I got the diamond JUC from the very beginning, I wouldn’t be this eager to add a additional $22k bracelet. So I guess either choice would be okay….

I think you are right, the same thing my husband said. Thank you for sharing your experience.
 
Wow, gorgeous stacks!

I don‘t want to regret getting the plain Juc but I feel the diamond one would compete a little with the small diamond one, maybe that‘s a good thing? I loved the look with diamonds on the WG Juc but it doesn’t wow me as much on the YG or RG Juc. Luxury „problems“ indeed!!
 
I love the yellow gold diamond JUC next to your clash and with your stack. My second pick would be plain JUC without diamonds.

I think you have to look at each Cartier piece for what it is in terms of its artfulness and how it looks and feels on your person. I get that we analyze material value compared to retail cost but this doesn’t completely make sense when we are talking brands. This is Cartier and every piece is over priced. We pick the pieces because we love the look and enjoy wearing them.

What did you LOVE and go with that!
 
I'm not a fan of the JUC without dia, this particular design for me leans more masculine, but with dia it totally changes the aesthetic in my opinion, it makes it so much more special and feminizes the piece. I also prefer all my pieces with dia, so I am biased here. I like the dia JUC best in your stack options. In terms of the closing mechanism, I don't believe what the SA told you, I have a very secure JUC and I don't wear everyday, I have had it for 4 years and open/close the mechanism often, it has not budged at all or made any clicking noise like some have mentioned.

Thank you very much for your comment. That‘s the thing - nothing jumped out at me (they all did, somewhat). With my other pieces I wanted them and was sure…

Today I was thinking if I only had one Juc - the regular - it would look more streamlined. Should I sell the small Juc?
 
I would say it depends on your style. If you prefer classic and more feminine with a lot of sparkle, then JUC with diamonds goes really well with your stack (though not that classic in my opinion ;) )
Otherwise, for a more edgy look, the one without. I hope this help (a little) :)

Thank you very much. So I would have to buy it online to get a fresh one, and would feel bad regarding my great SA. Although he didn’t freely offer to order a fresh one.

Thank you! I like both looks, some days I like rocker chic, leather jackets, others I like cream tweed blazers and more elegant feminine looks. Lol!

If you don't mind going through the miserable ordering process plus the chaos of their online operations you should do it (hope they handle it through Switzerland and not Amsterdam). In your case as you are not absolutely sure you reserve the option - online only - to return for money rather than just for a voucher.

Hmm I wonder if the small JUC is what is throwing you off. I will say from personal experience I bought the small with diamonds. I held out with JUC for YEARS (even before small was created as my SA told me they were going to do it) wanting a small with diamonds and thinking I didn’t love full size. Finally they released and I bought it. It was cute but didn’t work with my stack. Then I turned around and exchanged for full-size with diamonds (the price held me back the first time) and am so so happy! If you like the full size more and only feel one works with your stack I say yes sell.

Hi, oh dear, I ordered my rainbow wg love online, and it went ok. First it said Amsterdam (which meant additional CC fees…), then I called and they finally changed it to Switzerland. Idk, I might call this time.

I think the last sentence makes a lot of sense. I never thought I would consider selling it, it‘s so pretty and dainty.
