Oh I hope that’s the case, I don’t want alternating anything on the 20 motif. A full WG guilloche is going to be amazing. I’d have to pass if it were alternating.

Yes it would make so much more sense for the WG 20 motif to be all guilloche rather than alternating pave as the blinginess of the guilloche may obscure the pave. Whereas for YG version the guilloche and pave look more distinct from each other.
Was YG guilloche and pavé part of an anniversary collection? Their vintage alhambra definitely stands out more in YG than WG for sure.
I asked my SA about the line and she was going to look into it but doesn’t have any information yet.
Does white gold guilloche reflect the light the same as the gold or not really? Asking incase anyone had the holiday pendant for reference because I am reserving a bracelet
If stacked 24/7 with a WG diamond Juste un Clou, would you go for a 5 motif WG Guilloché or for a made to order WG hammered gold bracelet?
I would have thought a guilloche bracelet would be badly scratched by the JUC. The hammered is more durable.
I thought so too. I guess Guilloché should be worn alone and perhaps even better as a necklace, less scratches.
Yes it does. It is very shiny and reflective like the YG version but because it is silver toned, feels a little more casual than yellow gold. Think the bracelet will be beautiful!
I would go with guilloche. The JUC is a very industrial and architectural look. The guilloche is the same with it's crispy cut metal lines. The hammered gold is more old world glamour. The point of hammered gold is texture, to make it look old-world. In WG, the hammered gold will not look 'YG old world" nor will it be polished metal shiny. I think it will gray next to the JUC because it is so textured and your JUC is so polished. Note though... if you were wearing a Clover, I would say go with WG hammered because the hammered adds texture and plays off the Clover.
If you are going to wear JUC, I would stay with the polished metal theme and go guilloche. You get a super shiny wrist.
I wouldn't worry about scratches... buy what you love and what looks great, not what is safe. Buying safe tends to end up with regrets.
Just my two cents. Hope this helps.
On the wrist the scratches on the guilloche would bother me too much since the bracelet is within line of vision. The WG hammered is very white to me, in fact flat almost matte white. Doesn’t reflect except the center bead so it is very white. And scratches are impossible to see. The question is whether the hammered goes with the JUC.
