need help!! WF tennis bracelet

[laila]

Yaayy cpster! Keep us updated on if the flower clasp is expensive, and what size you decide to go with

! I know how you feel about dropping a lot of money all at once on a non-ering item (I am waiting for a 1.25 ctw 5 stone ring from WF - can hardly wait!), but a tennis bracelet is classic and something you can wear forever. I bet you wouldn''t regret going with the 3 ct if you already know you like the look of the stones at that size. Oh, all the justifications for spending more money on diamonds!

 

[laila]

Oh - and I would LOVE to become a tennis bracelet buddy! But I "need" (i.e. want very very badly

) a new e-ring first! As soon as that happens, I would definitely love to join in and get a tennis bracelet as well

!!!

Laila, I will be getting a bracelet too. I''m just debating between the two and three carat sizes. It''s a lot of money to drop at once, but maybe I can justify going larger by thinking that this will be THE diamond line bracelt for me for the rest of my life. My e-ring stone may be a different story though

Cpster, I would go with the 3 carat one if I were you. I have the 3 carat one, and the diamonds are pretty small. Cindy and I were both surprised at how small the diamonds in the 3 carat one are. So, if you go with the 2 carat bracelet, you may be disappointed in the size of the diamonds. I think eventually I may upgrade my 3 carat bracelet. I wonder if Whiteflash has an upgrade policy on their tennis bracelets?!?

 

[cpster]

Laila...we can''t wait to see your 5-stone ring! Did you order it yet?

Coda...thanks for the advice on going with the 3ctw bracelet. I''ve seen one in person. Hopefully this weekend I can go see what a 2ctw bracelet looks like. I think Flower told me that it is possible to upgrace, but it''s quite expensive since you would need to pay for a new bracelet setting and the additional work to set all of the diamonds.

Hopefully John will send out the photos of the sample bracelet with some diamonds put in today.

 

[Cind11]

Yep, I second what Coda (aka Colleen) said. Go for the 3 ct. one. I had asked Lesley if I could upgrade my bracelet later and she said they don''t take back used jewelry. But could you buy a new setting and would they take back the diamonds and you could split the difference and buy new, bigger diamonds? Actually, the fact that this bracelet doesn''t have big stones makes it nice to wear every day. It doesn''t look ostentatious.

 

[flower12]

yes , can up grade.
what I heard is the policy is
>purchase a new setting and pay 20% re-stocking fee for the returned bracelet plus shipping/insurance.

I am with Cindy > the fact that this bracelet doesn't have big stones makes it nice to wear every day. It doesn't look ostentatious.

about 2 ct or 3 ct. all depends on how you want to it look on your wrist.

I always think those 3 question to my self when I buy Jewelry

1.delicate look? or gorgeous look?
2.how big diamond / style is matching with fashion?
3. match with tall . weight. wrist size

( I often chose Jewelry to match my Clothes)
I wear denim and Tshirts or simple black cotton dress at summer time
denim and black sweater winter time, my all clothes is very simple &most are black .

my freinds is 2 ct toatl for 7 inch ( you can see the size compare next watch.)
it's looks almost 3 ct becuase the way of diamond setting. the diamond setting is not too low
if you see symayof's by side of view, the diamond set is just little bit lower.
maybe 0.2mm lower. also the 3prong setting is more show diamond individial because the joint is small.


I did try 1.5ct up~ 10ct. best match with my wrist as daily use is 3 ct for me.

since I am wearing 3ct up E-ring, necklace .etc
so I don't wanted to go too much since I am 5/2 and 98 lbs.
