HELP, Jai J424873 bracelet length?

pupwhipped — Fri, 05 Jan 2024 13:46:45 GMT

I could use some help, please! If any of you happen to have J424873, the Jai Byzantine and Box chain bracelet, could you please measure for me? I always wear an average in Jai bracelets and that's what I ordered. It is too big. The plastic bag that bracelets come in usually have the item number and the size noted on it...this one did not have the size. So I wonder if I got a large by mistake. If you have this bracelet in small, average, or large could you measure it from tip to tip? Knowing the actual length of any of those sizes would help me out. Thanks so much!!!

Could you compare to your current average sizes? That might be the answer.

Wanted to add, I certainly understand that an average size Jai bracelet should have a "71/4" inch fit." And depending on the style of the bracelet not all averages will be the same length. Jai has to adjust the length to accommodate how the thickness, style, design of the bracelet will actually "fit" on the wrist. I have six other Jai bracelets and they are all in the average size. This particular bracelet that I ordered in average rolls right off my hand! That's why I wonder if I got a large by mistake.

Yes, thanks! I already did that and it is about 1/4 inch longer then my average bracelets I already have in the style below. BUT, the question remains is this a large size sent out by mistake or the average that I ordered. Was just hoping someone else could give me an actual measurement of J424873 that they have. If QVC made a mistake and sent me a large, and then I ask for an exchange in small to get a shorter one then the one I have, then it will be too small. I don't want to get caught up in having to return a bunch of bracelets! LOL!

WAIT A DARN MINUTE, now that I just wrote all the above, I went and measured the two against each other again. When I measured a few days ago I laid the bracelets down on my vanity and the one below that I already own tends to scrunch up when laying it down and it was shorter. When I hold them in my fingers and let them hang they are pretty close in length with the one in question just a smidge longer. And when wearing the one below with many more beads on it I think it would not roll off the hand as easily because of the design.

OKAY, bottom line to this boring personal saga is I am beginning to think the J424873 bracelet is likely an average. But because of the design it will roll off my hand easier. I have an average size wrist but small hands.

Thanks so much!!!!!!

@pupwhipped

Adulting is hard isn't it 🥰

That said, if I was still bothered by the rolling it would go back.

I had a bit of a duh moment when measuring the second time. Ha!

I guess my issue is generally I need a small size for my hand and an average for my wrist. Seems I "ain't" built right. 🤣
