I wonder if the design would be different, unless it’s not rhodium plated. If it is plated then it can’t be bendy like the current design. I would love a rhodium plated small JUC.
I've read somewhere on here before about the rhodium being the reason they haven't made one previously.
However I have a Tiffany T wire and a Dinh Van Serrure bangle and both are bendy and rhodium plated, so I've never really understood why this is an issue for Cartier.

I wondered if it was more to do with the alloys they use for their white gold.
If you look at the T wire under a loop you can clearly see that where there are scratches it looks slightly yellow beneath the rhodium. My Love is not rhodium plated but is more of a grey / warm tone white gold, definitely not the colour of the Tiffany white gold. So my guess is Cartier use a different alloy in 18 carat white gold to make it white.. maybe platinum? Perhaps that is the reason it can't be bendy?
 
For those that have been looking at the new white gold JUC Bracelet in small, or have this in another color — do the diamonds make a big difference?

Both the small WG with and without diamonds are rhodium plated so the bracelet looks quite shiny. But I’m just wondering if the diamonds are “worth it?” in white gold and looking for opinions.

Personally, I don't think the diamonds are worth it on the wg as it doesn't "pop" enough vs the diamonds on say, the yg small juc.
I tried both the wg with and without diamonds and the one with diamonds was underwhelming for me.

I agree with this. I have a WG Love with 4 diamonds and you don't really notice them too much. They definitely pop more when set against RG or YG.

If I were going to get the JUC in WG, I would skip getting one with diamonds.
 
Love the WG JUC with diamonds. This is a stunning bangle. If it came out like this two years ago I would have bought it. I’m just waiting for the little hoops to have diamonds just on the nail Head.
 
These are a few pictures from when I tried it on in the Cartier in Harrods. When I was there and finally got to try it I didn’t feel the love for it I thought I would and yet now I can’t stop thinking about it 🤔I think I will go back and try again. I am very torn on whether I would want the diamonds or not, I actually really like the idea of the plain one for this piece as the simplicity appeals to me and I have diamonds in my Love and a tennis bracelet, but when I look at these pics I think the diamond one looks nicer. Lots to think about!

I did the same but on Sloane Street. Had to try it on but it wasn’t love at first sight. I have the small with diamonds and the regular so was hoping the wg would wow me right then and there but it didn’t. Now I’m home and can’t stop thinking about it.
