My girlfriend makes a lot of her own clothes so I had her measure my wrist. It measured around 8", but she warned me that no way were the links on this bracelet going to lie as flat as the measuring tape. She said order a 9" bracelet. BUT, the tape just said 8"! Long story short, after 24 years I've learned not to argue with her. So I ordered a 9" bracelet. Came in the mail this morning. Fits perfect. Has a little weight to it, but not to much. Looks awesome. Extremely pleased with this purchase. Can't beat the price. Great buy!
