Cuban Link: The dominant men's bracelet style. Flattened, interlocking links create bold presence. Available from subtle 6mm to statement 15mm+ widths.

Figaro: Italian classic with alternating short and long links. Distinctive pattern, versatile for dress or casual.

Rope: Twisted links create textured, light-catching surface. Classic look that never goes out of style.

Franco: V-shaped links lie flat against the wrist. Strong, sleek, modern appearance.

ID Bracelet: Chain with engravable plate. Timeless masculine style, often personalized.

Cuff: Open-ended rigid bracelet. Modern, adjustable, easy on and off.

Width dramatically affects the look and presence of a men's bracelet:

4-6mm: Subtle and understated. Works with dress shirts and business attire. Professional environments.

8-10mm: The sweet spot for most men. Noticeable but not overwhelming. Versatile for any occasion.

12-14mm: Bold presence. Makes a statement. Best for casual wear or making an impression.

15mm+: Maximum impact. Definitely gets noticed. Consider your build—larger frames carry wider bracelets better.

Match bracelet width to your wrist size and personal style. What looks balanced on a large frame may overwhelm a slimmer wrist.

Proper fit is crucial for both comfort and appearance:

How to measure: Wrap a flexible tape measure around your wrist at the bone. Note the measurement.

Adding comfort: Add 0.5" for a snug fit, 0.75-1" for comfortable movement.

Standard men's sizes:
- Small: 7.5-8"
- Medium: 8-8.5"
- Large: 8.5-9"
- XL: 9-9.5"

When in doubt: Go slightly larger. Too tight is uncomfortable and restricts movement. Slightly loose looks intentional.

10K Gold: Most durable option. 41.7% pure gold. Best for active lifestyles and daily wear. Most affordable.

14K Gold: The sweet spot. 58.3% pure gold. Excellent durability with richer color than 10K. Most popular choice.

18K Gold: 75% pure gold. Richer, deeper color. Softer metal—scratches more easily. Best for special pieces.

Yellow Gold: Classic, traditional look. Warm tone that works with most skin tones.

White Gold: Modern, versatile appearance. Rhodium plated for bright finish. Needs replating every few years.

Rose Gold: Contemporary, distinctive. Warm pink tone gaining popularity in men's jewelry.

Solid vs. Hollow: Solid bracelets contain gold throughout each link. Heavier, more durable, higher value. Hollow bracelets have empty space inside—lighter, more affordable, can dent.

Clasp types:
- Box clasp with safety: Most secure for valuable pieces
- Lobster claw: Reliable, easy to use
- Toggle: Decorative but less secure
- Fold-over: Low profile, secure

Link construction: Look for soldered links rather than open links. Soldered links won't pull apart under stress.

Weight matters: Compare similar styles by gram weight. Heavier usually means more gold and better quality.

Daily care: Wipe with soft cloth after wearing to remove oils and sweat.

Cleaning: Warm soapy water with soft brush. Rinse thoroughly, dry completely before storing.

When to remove: Sports, gym, yard work, swimming, showering. Impact and chemicals damage bracelets.

Clasp inspection: Check weekly for wear. The clasp typically fails before the bracelet.

Professional service: Annual inspection catches worn links before they break. Worth it for valuable pieces.

Storage: Lay flat or hang to prevent link damage. Keep separate from other jewelry to avoid scratches.
