Women's Miami Cuban Bracelets

The link: what a Miami Cuban bracelet is, for a woman's wrist

A Miami Cuban is a curb link built heavy. Its rounded links lock tightly into one another, and their faces are ground flat, so the bracelet lies down on the wrist instead of rolling. That build makes it heavier than most links of its width. On a woman's wrist a thin one reads as fine gold, and a wide one reads as the statement. Five pieces sit here, from a plain link to diamond name bracelets and a matching set.

Width: a thin Miami Cuban bracelet or a wide one

Wear a thin link, 2 to 4 mm wide, if it never leaves your wrist. The 2.6 mm here weighs 5.5 grams. It sits flat under a watch and stacks beside other gold, and it is the only piece here that sold in the past year. Across the store, nearly half the gold Cuban bracelets bought in that year were under 4 mm. From 9.7 to 11 mm the bracelet becomes the piece people notice, and each name bracelet weighs over 60 grams. More thin widths sit with the men's Miami Cuban bracelets.

Length: Miami Cuban bracelet size for a woman's wrist

Wrap a soft tape around your wrist bone and add about half an inch. A Cuban link is thick and stiff, so it needs that room to close and to move. Most women wear one near 7 inches. Each bracelet here comes in one length. The shortest is the two-tone piece at 6.5 inches, and the thin link is the longest at 8. Ask us before any shortening, because a bracelet cut down for you is final sale.

Gold and diamonds: 14K or 10K, two-tone, diamond Miami Cuban bracelet

Four pieces are 14K and one is 10K. 14K carries more gold, 58.3 percent. 10K, at 41.7 percent, is a little harder and paler. The 10K piece is two-tone, two colors of gold in one bracelet. The name bracelets and the set come in yellow, white or rose, and the thin link in yellow only. Three pieces carry diamonds, all round, prong set and listed as natural. Each name bracelet holds 3.62 carats. The two-tone piece holds 4.65.

Name, set and buying: custom name bracelet, chain and bracelet set, returns

The two name bracelets are custom made, a diamond nameplate on a 10 mm Cuban link. Send us the letters and ask about the length first, since custom work is final sale. The set pairs an 11 mm chain, 18 to 24 inches, with a 7 inch bracelet, finished with locks and heart charms. None of these listings names the clasp, so ask which one closes yours. The live chat answers first, or call or text 212-872-9692 from 10 AM ET. Returns run fourteen days from the day it arrives, for a piece nobody has worn or altered. Clear it with us before it ships, and send it on the return label we issue. We keep five percent for restocking, plus what that label cost.
