A better fit, around your wrist

A few careful measurements make a difference. Find a bracelet that sits comfortably and moves the way you want it to.

THE DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE.

A bracelet should work with your movements. Start with an accurate wrist measurement, then decide how much movement you want from the finished piece.

Your wrist circumference is a starting point. It is not automatically the bracelet length to order, especially with thick Cuban links.

Take your wrist measurement

Choose the position where you normally wear a bracelet.
Wrap a soft measuring tape around that point, keeping it close to the skin without compressing it.
Record the measurement. If you use string, mark the meeting point and measure the string flat against a ruler.
Repeat once to confirm the result, using the same position and tension.

Measure the wrist on which you intend to wear the bracelet. Keep the measurement in the same unit used by the product’s size options so you can compare it directly.

Decide how you want it to move

Fit preference	What you are looking for
Close	A bracelet that stays relatively near its chosen position while allowing comfortable movement.
Relaxed	Some movement around the wrist without feeling restrictive.
Loose	More movement toward the hand; check that the bracelet cannot slip off.

There is no universal allowance that works for every link style and clasp. Follow the product’s sizing guidance rather than automatically adding a fixed amount to your wrist measurement.

Account for the thickness of the links

A thick bracelet’s inside circumference can differ from its end-to-end length. Two bracelets with the same listed length can therefore feel different on the wrist.

If you already own a bracelet that fits well, compare its measurement and construction with the piece you are considering. Check whether the seller measures the full bracelet including the clasp, the wearable inside circumference, or another specified dimension.

Measure first. Use the exact piece’s fit guidance second.

Check before ordering

Your bracelet checklist

Record your wrist circumference and preferred movement.
Confirm the measurement method for the listed bracelet length.
Check the link width, thickness, and approximate weight where provided.
Ask for help if your measurement falls between available sizes.
Review sizing and return terms before ordering.
