More diamonds but smaller or less diamonds but bigger for DBTY bracelet?

[girlyglam]

I'm kind of on a jewelry frenzy right now, so while I'm looking for ~1ct studs, I'm also looking for a "diamonds by the yard" style bracelet. I had one years ago and sadly lost it, and have always wanted to replace it. I'm bouncing between a few options right now, and I was wondering what others would do/feel is best:

- 5 stations, 0.60 CTW (0.12ct for each diamond) - this is exactly what I had before so it would be a true replacement of the one I lost
- 5 stations, 0.75 CTW (0.15ct for each diamond - obviously a bit bigger than what I had before, but it's hard for me to tell if the size difference would be all that noticeable so I'm not sure if it would be worth the additional cost?
- 7 stations, 0/70 CTW (0.10ct for each diamond) - obviously smaller diamonds that what I had before, but also 2 more diamonds than before...again, I'm not sure if the size difference between 0.12ct and 0.10ct diamonds is all that noticeable, and even if it is, would the size difference possibly be countered by the number of diamonds?

For reference, I'm looking for the bracelet to be 6 inches long in white gold.

Thoughts or guidance on which option to go for?

The size difference would be less than 0.2mm in either direction, afaik, so I doubt it would be perceptible. I would go with the 7 station bracelet!

Given the tendency for flipping, and minimal difference in diameter, I think the bracelet with more, smaller stones would have better visual impact.

I have a 9 station x 0.06ct stones (so smaller again), platinum and 6.5 inches. I'd love larger stones but went with more stones because it means there are no 'bare' patches around my wrist, just little glitters!

I agree that I think having more stones would work best. that's what I would choose.

It's from White flash; I had one extra station added to their standard 8 station bracelet.
