    The “everyone has it” comments definitely come from a chronically online place. On the internet everyone talks about it but in the real world not everyone has it, not even close

      I bought a bag for my best friend before. The details of the *condup* bag are very rich. The replica is very exquisite. The stitching, interface and leather are great. My friend likes it very much.

    Hi Cynthia! Love your videos! So refreshing to see someone who appreciate luxury but doesn’t come off as out of touch or show off. I agree with you that it really doesn’t matter as long as you love it, then it’s worth it.
    Both screws don’t come out, unlike the older model. I stack my love bracelets and my theory is that the constant vibrations from the bracelets hitting each other causing the screws to come loose. I purposely got a little bigger sized ones because I am between sizes. It’s kinda annoying to hear the clinging of the bracelets so I tend to add a “damper bracelet” in between, like the smiley bracelets from Lisa Goslan or the three infinity ring string bracelet from Cartier( not sure what the exact name is). I love mine and completely agree with all your points on pros and cons. Oh and remember to take it off when going to onsen in Japan. I was stupid and lazy so I left it on. It destroyed my white gold love-the luster is lost and turned REALLY dull. Ugh! Anyway, way too long of a comment. Love from Taiwan!! ( currently visiting my parents)

      Hi!! Omg thanks for your comment I appreciate your kind words and the info about the love bracelet!! That’s so smart to stack other bracelets in between. Your stack sounds gorg! And omg re onsen is it something to do with the onsen water that affects the love bracelet?
      Have so much fun in Taiwan!! Eat all the good food!!!!

    One question: What led you to choose yellow gold over white gold or rose gold? Was it a tough decision, or did you always know which you wanted?

    • @Cynthiamhuang
      @Cynthiamhuang  20 дней назад

      Ty!! Personally I feel like yellow gold is most classic and it’s what I wanted so I got it! I like to mix metals anyways :)

    I can sympathize when your friend lost her bracelet. I lost mines at a concert and I’m not sure if the screws were loose or someone did steal it.
    But Cartier is definitely worth it. It’s nice to own a beautiful piece of jewelry and that’s all you need.

    I’ve been saving up to get the love bracelet this year so this video was perfect timing! I feel like a lot of the things you went through when making your decision (value, brand, diamonds vs regular, original vs small - I’m also on the tall side) are exactly all things I’ve been thinking about so this was super helpful!!
    I recently went into to the SF boutique to try on rg vs. yg again and I ended up also trying on the Tank Louis watch. I kinda regret trying on the Tank Louis because I fell in love with it and now I’m debating between the two for my first Cartier purchase 😭😂

    • @Cynthiamhuang
      @Cynthiamhuang  Месяц назад +1

      I’m so glad this was helpful!! Omg Cartier watches are stunning but just think about whether you want a bracelet or watch more! Bracelet is good bc you never take it off vs watch you will but it’s not hard to put on. But if you already have a lot of bracelets then a watch could be a good change!

    Loved the video! Couldn’t help but notice your wedding band! Is it an oval eternity band!? Can we please get a video on your wedding set? I’m planning to get an oval eternity band for my wedding band but can’t decide on the per carat size for the band! It seems like 0.2 is the most popular? Thoughts?? Thanks in advance 😝

    I was just recently gifted the VCA white gold guilloche from my parents for Mother's Day which I've been eyeing for a while. I've heard that VCA has become cheugy but I'm idc absolutely in love with it. I can't girl math per wear on a Cartier love bracelet (white gold) like you said that you can get diamonds on something else with your jeweler for less or similar. I'm still thinking of what push present I want!!

I plan on wearing it with my dainty diamond bezel necklace layered. All my jewelry is white gold and platinum. My mom has had her yellow gold guilloche for over a year and a half and it hasn't dulled but she doesn't put lotions or perfume near it.

    It's worth it to buy the solid gold 21kt versions sold in the middle east. Those retain value because they are sold per gram.

    • @alinachernyshova1494
      @alinachernyshova1494 21 день назад

      Higher than 18kt is very delicate gold, they are more soft! That’s why a lot of jewelers don’t recommend to buy higher than 18 on daily basis. If you are looking to buy gold as “investment” better to buy coins or gold bars:))

    No body is walking around with the Cartier screw drivers 😂 your friends bracelet just probably slowly unscrewed over time and fell off. It happens often in the beginning when the bracelet is new.
