Cartier Agrafe bracelet, recognize these markings?

[Garuda]

Was the Agrafe bracelet ever made in a smaller size? Less than the 2.93ctw ?

I'm looking at one now, that is less weight and less ctw. It LOOKS real, and checks out as real diamonds and real gold.. and the Cartier mark seems to be done right.. but I don't see a smaller one on their site, or on ebay.

Any one recall a smaller piece? I know they make different sizes of stuff, ie Trinity rings.

Are these other markings something you guys have seen before?

Thanks so much!

I don't know... The craftsmanship and the hallmarks on the Cartier look a little shaky. I've attached a picture of a hallmark of a real one. Do you have papers?

The one you have might be an older version, but the newer ones have screw in links.

I counted the links, the ones I find on ebay etc, all have 13, I have only 11. The person stated that 2 were removed as owner had a small wrist. I confirmed with the SA at Cartier the links that get removed have screws.

No papers.. part of why it feels weird.

How long has Cartier been making these? Is it possible they first started with two sizes?

I'm perplexed, why would if you're making a knockoff, would you make a obviously smaller one?

I'm not saying its a knockoff but i wouldn't assume that knockoff artists would get it the right size. when you look at the differences between brand name item and the fake items the difference can be that obvious. and the markings are very different too

I wonder if the girls at the purse forum would be able to help you out more. they specialise in knowing the difference between the fake and the legit and although its mostly purses i think they could help you with the pictures you have

Ya posted over there. My cartier SA said it looked alright but really.. I don't have a whack of faith in her.. She's kinda off.. Waiting on some info back from her.
