HOW TO MEASURE BRACELET SIZES ACCURATELY
For a more accurate measurement of your bracelet size follow the simple steps below:
Step 1:
Measure the circumference of your wrist by wrapping a flexible tape measure around your wrist at a point just below the wrist bone. Then read off and record the measurement.
Step 2:
Alternatively wrap a thin strip of paper around your wrist just below the wrist bone and mark the paper where it overlaps with a pencil. Then measure the paper strip up to the pencil mark with a ruler and record the measurement.
Step 3:
Either of these two methods will give you an accurate measurement for the circumference of your wrist, to which you then need to add some bracelet movement using the table provided below:
Bracelet Style | ||
---|---|---|
Preferred Bracelet Style | Added Length in Inches | Added Length in Centimetres |
Close Fit Bracelet | Add 1/4″ to 1/2″ | Add 0.6 cm to 1.3 cm |
Comfort Fit Bracelet | Add 3/4″ to 1″ | Add 1.9 cm to 2.5 cm |
Loose Fit Bracelet | Add 1 1/4″ | Add 3.2 cm |
For bracelets with a magnetic clasp the bracelet size can be made a little smaller than similar bracelet designs with other types of clasp. With a magnetic clasp being far easier to remove than, for instance a toggle clasp, you can subtract a 1/4” or 0.6 cm from your measurements.
