I recently got a Roberto Coin initial necklace with my son’s first initial. It’s so sparkly!

I am really enjoying mine (non-pave). Great layering piece and so versatile.
Nice YouTube showing the making of the new Tiffany Knot...

Could you kindly post a modeling photo?
I tried the Sweet-Perlee clover a couple weeks back (posted the photo in case someone wants to compare to modeling shots hopefully someone will post here for the Roberto Coin) and saw 2 women I know with them this week, one with one in YG, and the other had stacked a RG and WG, and they were so under impressive for $16,000. I couldn’t believe the one who had stacked them and paid $32,000, instead of getting the full size. She told me she was on the waitlist for that one, lol.
I’d love to see how these look, and at its price point for sure if they are cute....

Aesthesic only, I prefer the clean design of Roberto Coin. I think the milgrain bead edge on the Sweets overpowers the bangle. However, brand-wise, VCA is most recognizable.
Also, if one is not tied to VCA and want a clean diamond bangle, in addition to the Roberto Coin clover/pave bangle, take a look at the this Tiffany Metro five-row diamond bangle. It's so clean and the edges are crispy, hence I think it goes with a lot more pieces. This bangle sparkles like mad, but the big downside is it is only half circle diamonds. I asked Tiffany if they would do it in full circile diamonds and they said no. The full circle diamond version is the true bangle.
Here is the five row hinged bangle (half circle diamonds) - looks nice only from top, underside is just metal

Here is the full circle diamond true bangle (no hinge) - the photo makes it look big, but it's really dainty though in real life with just three rows.

They so are, I am sorry to say.Their ACAs are really out of this world, and I have searched high and low and tried a ton of diamonds. (Not that I own a ton, just tried them.). My friends were just saying that the WF bangle is an amazing deal. Let me tag a friend and see if she can share pics of her bangle.
So sorry for the delay! I did try this 3 ctw Whiteflash bracelet but did not keep it because it was not a perfect fit for my wrist. I do not yet have a VCA bangle and felt like I'd like to try a diamond bangle with a VCA bangle before deciding. These seem to only come in one size. Here's a close up of the bangle. The diamonds are perfection! (My hand looks like it was in a fist fight or something so I cut that part of the picture off!)
I actually really like these bangles a lot. I'd love to try them. The prices are tempting for those of us who may not get Pelee Clover or a perlee pave bangle.

I find a tennis bracelet within a stack, that’s the same size/length as the bangles is perfect.
The five row is so so beautiful! Sparkles like mad, which I think you know I'm a fan of Tiffany diamonds. If I weren't so picky about "half" things which look unfinished to me, I'd get that five row bangle for sure. It's beyond gorgeous. But I'm the type that won't buy a cable sweater if it's only cabled in the front and not the back as to me, it looks unfinished and halfbaked. The SA said some people prefer a half circle diamond as they don't want to bang the diamonds. For me though, as diamonds the hardest substance on earth, these sparkly little guys should be fine with a little banging.
In real life, I think this bangle looks blingy-er (is that a word?) than the VCA 3-row bangle. Don't get me wrong, I like VCA, but for a true diamond bangle, the Tiffany Metro speaks to me, all diamonds, all the way to the edge. The milgrain bead edge of the VCA bangle is a different look, and to me, one is buying a "VCA bangle", not a "diamond bangle". It's really what you're looking for. I also think if you wear other brands, a simple diamond bangle goes with more pieces as it does not have the milgrain bead edge which can add a more antique/old world elegance vs. a clean crisp look. It's all preference.
If you prefer a daintier bangle, the Metro also comes in a single row hinged and single row full circle:

I hope you can try it on and see if you like it.

I actually have tried on the single row Metro bangles before and they are very pretty! I like the oval hinged better. I just need to decide what I'd wear with them so I can make sure everything works together!
I actually am also considering a bezeled diamond tennis bracelet because I think it coordinates with VCA so well!

I agree, the half around bothers me. I am actually in process of getting some diamond bangles that go all the way around. I searched far and wide for the right ones, cross fingers they fit perfectly with my love bracelets. I did not know until recently that Tiffany made similar ones. I had looked at the Cartier ones, but also half way and the price point makes my eyes water since I want multiple.The five row is so so beautiful!

So anyone else looking for dismond bangles I would encourage looking at non branded ones. Lots of options out there.
WOW! I can tell it has a lot of fire. Regarding sizing, Whiteflash told me it only comes in 7” circumference. SO sizing was not an option. I’m guessing they said the same to you? Such a shame! It’s a stunner!So sorry for the delay! I did try this 3 ctw Whiteflash bracelet but did not keep it because it was not a perfect fit for my wrist.

I’ve been looking for non-branded 18k with and without diamonds, but haven’t had much success, bc they don’t tend to make them in multiple sizes, so I can find what fits me
I do want to see your stack when they arrive though
@BigAkoya and @lynne_ross I also don’t like 1/2 diamonds. Annoys me as most tend to turn.
