Cartier love bangles

[Anonymous]

I am contemplating a Cartier love bangle. Classic gold. My question is whether or not this item is a staple, a necessity, and something that is timeless and worth it. (All of my friends have them, and none of them had to buy it for themselves. I would be purchasing this for myself.)

You’re asking if a $7,000 bangle is a necessity?

I don’t know much about fine jewelry, but if I was going to make the investment, I wouldn’t start with this. Assuming I was looking at the right thing in the Google search, it’s a very plain bracelet that’s primary embellishment is looking like it’s embedded with screws. It doesn’t feature beautifully cut stones or detailed craftsmanship. I don’t think it’s very appealing. Unless you’re a carpenter or own a hardware store, I can’t imagine why you’d want it. Maybe I’m just too unsophisticated to appreciate it, but if so, I’m thankful.

Overdone. Hard pass.

The fact that all your friends have one is a good reason to pass on this trend.

They scratch like crazy.

Omg no! Everyone will know you had to buy it for yourself and that's so embarrassing!

There are options with diamonds but it’s way more expensive that way.

Are you being sincere or is this sarcasm?

No. Buy something below $500 and invest rest in treasury bonds. If you are loaded then pay somebody's hospital bill or house rent.

I just saw this post with the link? Why would you buy yourself a manacle that you can’t put on or remove yourself?

I can perhaps see it as a substitute for a wedding band or collar, although it would decidedly not be my preference. However, you’re buying it for yourself so it doesn’t represent a fixed commitment to anyone. Even if you have the jeweler put it on, what are you going to do if you want/need to get it off?
