Measure your wrist circumference and calculate the appropriate length.

How do you measure your wrist?

Wrap a measuring tape or a string loosely around the narrowest part of your wrist, directly below the wrist bone. Note the circumference in centimeters and enter it above. For a comfortable fit, we recommend the "Comfort" setting.

Which fit is right for you?

  • Tight, snug fit, ideal for delicate chain bracelets.
  • Comfort, classic fit with a little slack, for most occasions.
  • Loose, falls over the back of the hand, for a casual look.

Which bracelet type lasts in everyday life?

Bracelet type On the wrist with a watch Without a watch
Small link Easy to combine Looks subtle
Wide link Competes with the watch Standalone eye-catcher
Bangle Rattles against the watch case Very good
Bead bracelet Good, soft contact Sporty and light

What should you look for when buying a bracelet?

The fit determines the comfort. One finger should fit between the bracelet and the wrist. If it fits tighter, the clasp will chafe the skin; if it fits looser, it will slide over the ball of your thumb and be lost.

Bracelets are the most heavily used category of jewelry because hands are constantly in motion, brushing against table edges, keyboards, and sleeves. Sturdy link bracelets withstand this better than fine chains or elastic strings of beads.

The clasp is the weak point. Carabiners with a safety loop are the most reliable solution. Magnetic clasps are convenient but open under tension, which happens quickly when putting on a jacket.

Those who combine a watch and a bracelet should pay attention to the metal color. On the same arm, it looks harmonious if both match; otherwise, wearing the watch on the left and jewelry on the right is the simpler solution.

What do you get in which price range?

If you want to categorize the price, you should distinguish between material value and utility value. Under twenty euros, you get solid basic pieces; between twenty and forty-five euros, more elaborate shapes and versatility are added. The money is well invested where you put on the piece without thinking.

Which bad buys can be avoided with bracelets?

With bracelets, a poor choice rarely costs much money, but it repeats if the cause remains unclear. When giving gifts, there is also the fact that you decide according to your own taste instead of that of the recipient. Errors of this kind only repeat themselves until you have named them once.

When should you take off bracelets?

Anyone who wears bracelets daily should know three situations in which the risk increases significantly. Creams, perfume, and hairspray should be applied before the piece is put on, not after. Everything else is uncritical, and constant safeguarding makes an everyday piece pointless.

How do you wear bracelets without it looking cluttered?

A harmonious picture is created by graduation, not by as many pieces as possible. Rose gold combines well with yellow gold; with silver, however, only via a two-tone link. This logic can be transferred to any jewelry category.

Which details reveal the workmanship of bracelets?

Anyone who picks up bracelets will recognize within a few seconds whether they have been crafted precisely. Clean edges without sharp spots, even surfaces, and a clasp without play are important. What survives this check usually withstands daily use as well.

What care do bracelets really need?

Anyone who wears bracelets daily collects skin oils and care residues, and that is exactly what makes surfaces dull. For coated pieces, a dry cloth is sufficient; use water only if necessary and then briefly. The stainless steel core remains unaffected and retains its shape.

Why does my bracelet keep opening?

Usually, the carabiner is worn out or the magnetic clasp is too weak for the load. A safety loop prevents loss.

Can I combine multiple bracelets?

Yes, preferably different widths within one metal color. Bracelets of the same width next to each other quickly look like a mistake.

How to measure correctly

Place a measuring tape directly below the wrist bone, where the bracelet will later sit. Without a measuring tape, take a strip of paper, mark the overlap, and measure it with a ruler. The result is your wrist circumference.

Wrist Snug Normal Loose
14 cm 15 cm 16 cm 17 cm
15 cm 16 cm 17 cm 18 cm
16 cm 17 cm 18 cm 19 cm
17 cm 18 cm 19 cm 20 cm
18 cm 19 cm 20 cm 21 cm

What the design changes

Link bracelets need more slack than fine chains because the links need room to move. Bangles have a fixed opening; the inner diameter counts there, not the length. Many models at Corelune have an extension chain of two to four centimeters, thereby covering two sizes.

A test for the fit: One finger should fit between the bracelet and the wrist. If none fits in, it is too tight. If two fit, it will slide over the hand.
