How tightly around your wrist do you wear your diamond bracelet? Pictures welcome :)

\As someone who comes from a predominantly 'bangle' culture I am curious to know how one decides the length of one's diamond bracelets. How close to your wrist do you wear your bracelets? Please post some pictures for reference!

Comfortably loose but not loose enough to slide off or be accidentally pulled off when removing a sweater , coat ( what’s a coat? Ha ha). I mostly wear bangles too but like the look of my tennis bracelet solo or with my watch.

I don't have a tennis bracelet any longer BUT since my hand is nearly as small as my wrist (and I have a small wrist - 6 3/4") any bracelet or watch is worn very nearly as small as my wrist, i.e.I can barely push my smallest finger between my wrist (7 1/2") and the watch band/bracelet.

Here is mine. I think it could be a tad shorter and still be comfortable.

I like mine loose.

Great question and topic of conversation. Look forward to swing the answers as I am curious too.

I like mine fairly loose and normally wear 7.5in ones up to about 4 bracelets/bangle on my right hand which I go out on dressier events.

I prefer bangles because for the most part they stay in place and fit my wrist best

My bracelets are much more dainty (read: inexpensive!) than the ones posted so far. My wrist is 5.75" and these are 6" for the bar one and 6.25" for the other. That's enough room on both to slide around a little - I get about 1.5" of movement from the smaller and 3" from the larger up and down my arm. My chunky sterling silver 'Please Return to Tiffany' bracelet is 6.6", so I personally can't imagine going more than an inch bigger than my wrist for any diamond bracelet unless I really wanted it to drape. I would be worried about damaging stones with it that loose as well.

My wrist is exactly 7 inches so I buy 7.5 so it doesn’t pinch.

I got a CZ bracelet to try out at this length, just above the palm. It felt restrictive at first but the tighter fit has grown onto me. It doesn’t get in the way when I am cooking and hosting a dinner party or need to carry boxes for an unexpected delivery.

I can slide 1 finger back and forth under it.

My wrist is just over 6” and I wear my bracelets at 6.75-7”. I would be ok with even smaller, but bigger is a no-go. I hate it when the bracelet slips down to the palm.

That's a very nice bracelet. It's not often that I see many yellow gold tennis bracelets and this here is the perfect bracelet in my head. Thanks for sharing the pics!

Dainty they may be but they pack enough sparkle. Love the dot and diamond bracelet design. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Thank you. Length-wise this would be ideal. Doesn't slip off nor is it too tight.

Thank you! It was a very lucky find on ebay several years ago. My aunt left me a small inheritance and I treated myself. I love platinum and white gold but Yellow gold is more flattering to this vintage redhead.
