I just would love to save that piece until I make it to NYC, but I am worried about them discontinuing those just like they did the bracelets. So it's taking a chance to wait.
Thank you!!! If I got that pendant, then I'd be coveting your bracelet!
I really don't need the MOP until next summer, so I might lean toward the onyx now. Hmmm.
I think the safe solution is to get both, and avoid all “what ifs”After all that frivole and Alhambra talk I might be getting a JUC instead. They just released a thin version and well I’m actually loving the way it looks in photos. Think I need to try it out. Flip flop.
I just got an email from a resale website, letting me know that the turquoise butterfly was available again (on my wishlist). Looks like they have not adjusted for the new VCA prices. Maybe I should try to negotiate!

One thing I've learned is that when I continuously "visit" a particular piece, I'm serious about wanting it and it's not just a phase. Sigh. Counting down the months I'm still undecided about the classic vs. cuff especially bc I'd get the one diamond version of the cuff which is still less expensive than the classic! I also slightly prefer the fit of the cuff and the fact that it's removable but don't want to regret not getting the original since everyone says you get used to having it on. Any thoughts?
Ugh took another stroll to the Cartier boutique earlier....
So you're looking at the only other bracelet I have in the pic...my tennis bracelet which was a wedding gift from DH. I've never been into bracelets or anything on my wrist which is why I like being able to take them on and off. I've actually just sent off a platinum/diamond Edwardian brooch to be converted to a cuff and will sort of use that as my test once I get it back! While I hear your point about the diamond cuff, that little bit of sparkle sets it apart and the price difference is not that much so that's why I'm considering it.
I do "want" the classic because in my head, I want to be the girl that just wears it all the time and doesn't worry about scratching the bracelet. In reality, I am NOT that person so not being able to take it off every day would not work with my OCD. And, due to medical issues, I cannot wear my cuff on my right arm now. I can't wear anything that is heavy and solid like the cuff. (Didn't plan for that.) So I am very glad I didn't buy the full. At least I can wear the cuff on my left arm. However, for now, my left arm is reserved for my watch. And I cannot wear a cuff with a watch because I don't want to scuff up my cuff. And the watch takes priority as I want to be able to tell the time without pulling out my phone. So my cuff is stashed away. I am waiting for my soft VCA 5 motif which I can wear with my watch with no issues. Sorry that was such a long story just to say the cuff works for my life.This is great feedback and the exact reason I started my search early! I still have time before I pull the trigger and want to be completely certain. Thanks for testing it out with your own loves! I have heard some people wish they would've just gone with the classic and I don't want to feel that way but need to make sure it will work in my life. I do generally prefer less range of motion but not tight. My wrist bone is the culprit of why I need a bigger size
@LLJsmom - are you still loving your cuffs or do you wish you would've gone with the classic version?
Appreciate your input...I sometimes get wrapped up in what people I know have but no one loves or thinks about jewelry like we (PSers) do so it's tough. Everyone around me has the classic and I so want to not care but I do. I am leaning towards the cuff with the diamond...I would also 'save' $1k!
