Thank you for compare both bracelets. I have two fake ones and it's sad to see how the real and expensive bracelet scratch as the fake one. Big hug from Brazil 😉😘
12:14 I have to disagree; I like the look of the Cartier. Which the replica provides at a fraction of the price for the same look. And that "feeling" of wearing the real one is confidence. Confidence comes from one, and not a bracelet. That's the same logic as "lucky underwear".
The real one looks like it needs an appointment for a free complimentary quickshine and cleaning service my Cartier boutique was able to bring back some luster for mine after wearing for a year
A lot of celebrities are and have been wearing dupes for years 🤭 I say wear what you love ❤️ and can afford. I’m saving for a real one 🫶🏾 but wouldn’t look down on someone wearing a dupe . Life is hard treat yourself (within your means) if you like it 👍🏾 I love it for you. Safe space here 🫂 no judgement.
Thank you for this video . I bought the exact replica, that you showed here, a while back. It’s funny, when I bought it online it said nothing about looking like the love bracelet I just thought it was a stainless steel bracelet. Anyway, it showed up looking just like a real love bracelet. Today I received a genuine Love bracelet, albeit the small version, and it’s fabulous.
I forgot to say, that I really did wonder if my other bracelet was real. When I found your video, you showed the serial numbers etc, and that was the deciding factor…it’s counterfeit
I get what you mean! The fake one is brighter. But trust me, when you have it on, the real one is much better 😂 Happy you liked this video!! Thank you for watching and commenting. Take care 🥰
I agree with you, I wouldn’t encourage the replica~ but this is pretty expensive, so it’ll be great for those who can’t afford Cartier! Thanks for sharing girl 💛
Thanks for the video I found a replica while cleaning out a storage unit and for a few days I been thinking I struck gold literally lol but turns out it's fake. The weird thing is tho that my bf took it to be appraised and one place told him it is authentic gold tho so it gave me hopes but it has the same serial number as your fake so it has to be fake. Thanks again!
Haha what a story! Glad this video was helpful 😀 At least it sounds like it's real gold, so at least you can sell it to a jeweler for something in return 👍🏻
I don't like to encourage replica either, but it's a good idea to try it out to see if we like the style before we purchase the authentic pieces. Thank you for sharing Donna❤️❤️
I actually have done that with bags and it have saved me so much pain! Some bags I’ve wanted just aren’t functional but I wouldn’t have known without trying the fake first abd realizing the design was awful lol
Crazy how they went up in price!! Must be annoying... I don't have this problem, since most people don't know what it is where I live 😂 Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for the video, Donna! I find these quite informative when I'm researching a piece and looking into buying it in the preloved market as I'm deathly afraid of getting scammed. I know I can have stuff authenticated but for my own piece of mind, I also prefer to know what to look out for. x
Thank you for watching Patricia 😊 Exactly! This video can also help people see the difference between the real and the fake in order to make better choices while shopping on the pre-loved market!
I am buying a replica to see if I like it enough … once I know I love it, I will go to jeweller and get that made in 18k gold with minor change (to save from copyright issues) and that will be 1/4th of the price.
I wonder if the replica is wider because it’s a 20? I wonder whether the smaller sizes are slimmer. Just a thought. But I do notice that the undertones are vastly different. I wonder if that’s because white gold is mixed with platinum so maybe there’s some residual yellow gold that becomes apparent? I’m not an expert, but that makes me interested. I do love the white gold color, however. My Love Ring is yellow gold, but I do love white gold. Thanks for the video!
Hello! The width of the bracelet shouldn't change according to the size chosen for your wrist. The replica is just off in terms of measurment. Indeed, the yellow undertone is either due to the metals chosen to be mixed with the 75% of gold, or the rhodium plating is wearing off. Thank you for watching my video 😍
Thank you for watching !! 😊 You are right, from far away, it is hard to tell. But trust me, when you have the bracelets in your hands, the difference is huge 😂
The replica is made of stainless steel. And the original is 750 gold which I'd yellow gold mixed with white metals which will have a yellow tinge.... I do believe that they rhodium plate them since the one in the video looks dull, and "spotty".... Hence she said that they "change color".
Hello! It's hard to say, but probably stainless steel or some other type of cheap compound metal. Yes, I wouldn't see any problem to get it wet on a daily basis. What's the worst that can happen anyway, it's a counterfeit bracelet for 20$ 😂 Take care!
I can spot a replica a mile away. I wear a yellow cuff and a white gold traditional screw on cartier love bracelet on my right wrist stacked. The screws on replica are oversized and sloppy looking. The tint on the fake is super silver looking stainless steel. White gold will always have a warm Grey look to it because it's just yellow gold melted with palladium or rhodium to give it that white look. Where my two parts meet together, it is almost impossible to see the crease (almost laser cut looking) . The authentic is a lot heavier than the fake even though the fake will always have more mass. The inscription serial number with metal content , country of maker and all hallmarks are always going to be smaller yet deeper on the authentic and the fake will have super large letters. The screwdriver to real bracelet will say Au 750 p-c. Just states that the tool from cartier has been plated in precious metal. The fakes never have any stamps. I really like how small , tight, clean and non Bushwa / goddy looking the authentic piece is. I work with some people that wear the fakes and I can always tell by the 1mm wide gap in between the 2 arches. No quality control on these Countries that make these. Also the serial number is always like ip6688 or something similar 😆 🤣. Thanks so much for making this video. Very good comparison. 👍
Thank you for your comment! You hit the nail right on the head (no pun intended! 😉) You definitely know your stuff and I agree with you ✅ Thank you for watching and for your support!
Hello! As I said in this video, I do not encourage the replica market. I simply borrowed the replica bracelet from a friend to make my point on this video. Have a good day 😊
That's a shame! Usually, when something is off, it's a good sign that it is fake 😢 Better check with Cartier or a third party authenticator! Take care!
You can’t compare a $20 fake to the real thing. There are some real 18k exact replicas that are less than half the price that you wouldn’t be able to tell.
I find these kind of comparisons intreaguing because it kind of scares my that replicas can be so alike with such a small price 🤯😬😅 but looks fade, quality stays! I’m also rooting for dupes/inspired products but replicas represent an industry to me that I don’t support 👎
I completely agree with you!! Replicas are kind of scary and I hope this video helped show the difference between the fake and the real thing. I love your saying: quality does stay 😍👌🏻
Great video. In my experience, the principal difference and easy one to spot a replica are the side screws. In the replica’s ones, 90% of them, has a flat side screws, and not the more “raise” like the original.
I bought 3 of these at a local thrift store and got excited the diamonds look so real I went to a pawn shop thinking I was going to get rich to be told they were fake I was so embarrassed I should of watched your video.
Thanks for sharing… here is whats more embarassing trying to get money for a diamond ring I got from an ex only to be told it was not at the jewelry store..
I wear mine everyday..haven't taken it off in months..I have the yellow gold.. the real one..funny my Mom wanted one so she got the white knock off.. not a bad bracelet for 20 bucks..when I paid 5800 for mine
When spending > 5000, you should wear it everyday and enjoy your purchase! The knockoffs can be very impressive, agreed! especially they're level of detail!
The fake one honestly looks better. I’ve seen them in store and they don’t look that great with sharper edges than I’d like. I tried one on and all I could think is that it just looks like you’re wearing one of those stainless steel bangles with “le vie on rose” written on or something for €12 It’s really a tricky one with this one! Other fakes I’d definitely not recommend.
Hello Anthony! This fake is well done indeed. But to be honest, I would rather wear the real one 100% of the time. So you know, the fake in this video is almost brand new and the real one is a little old, so maybe that makes a difference in the comparison! Thank you for watching 😊
Thank you for sharing this video! I agree with you, encouraging the replica world is not the way to go 😱 Expensive bracelet though... I like your idea of a dupe or inspired product. I’m sure any local jeweler can make a similar bracelet in real 18k gold for a couple of grand without copying the whole Cartier design. Make more videos like this!!! 😍 Cheers, -TPC
So happy you enjoyed the video! I'm pretty sure that if you get a similar one made by a jeweller it will be less expensive! and yes there will be more comparison videos to come!
This is a cheap replica !! For 20$ ... They are doing ones in real gold that even Cartier workers and Designers cant spot them, but here we are talking about real gold. 33 grams of gold = 1200$ so you cant compare à bracelet not made of gold to the Gold Cartier. Plus Cartier has 33 grams of gold, you have the gold price with the brand price
Also, is not 30 grams of gold. Is 30 grams of 75% pure gold that will scrap value the metal of the bracelet at $900 dollars. So Cartier made a $6800 dollar profit on a bracelet with 30 grams of 75% pure gold.
Easily the best video about this straight to the point and Donna look good AF
Thank you so much 😘
Is it weird that to me the fake one looks better than the real one? Maybe it's just me... lol
No not at all! The fake one is just too perfect, that's what gives it away for me! Thank you for watching!
Yes, it does look better.
Hello mam how are you I'm from Pakistan mam I found a Cartier bracelet I don't know is it real or fake
its fake lmao@@naeemakhter3448

From where did u buy the fake one?
The replica looks better to me. The color of the real one looks gray and dull but I get your bias and argument. Good video.
I get what you mean! The fake one is brighter. But trust me, when you have it on, the real one is much better 😂 Happy you liked this video!! Thank you for watching and commenting. Take care 🥰

I've had my real 18k gold one for almost 20 yrs. And paid half the price they are now. I hate when people ask me if mine is real.
Crazy how they went up in price!! Must be annoying... I don't have this problem, since most people don't know what it is where I live 😂 Thanks for watching!!

You can definitely make something similar at the jeweller in real gold for much less than a Love bracelet!! Take care 😊
That's what I did.

I would not be able to tell from afar, but time will test the quality as you mentioned. What a fun video. Thanks for sharing dear!❤
Thank you for watching !! 😊 You are right, from far away, it is hard to tell. But trust me, when you have the bracelets in your hands, the difference is huge 😂
The giveaway is the replica is very shiny, Cartier doesn't plate whitegold with rhodium if it doesn't come with diamonds.
Good point Kimoy Tan 👍🏻

What is the replica made from, sterling silver? would it be ok to get wet on a daily basis?

I would like to see a real v superclone comparison, why don't the fakers use 18ct

How I can buy fake love bracelet and ring for daily use. Let me know the place
Hello! As I said in this video, I do not encourage the replica market. I simply borrowed the replica bracelet from a friend to make my point on this video. Have a good day 😊
Etsy
Is it women's bracelet
No it’s unisex.
I have one that seems like a mixture of real and fake but now I'm not so sure if it is or not
That's a shame! Usually, when something is off, it's a good sign that it is fake 😢 Better check with Cartier or a third party authenticator! Take care!
@@DonnaIsabella yeah my mum went to a jewellers to check it and they said that it was real so thank you
Thank you for doing the comparison babe Tfs ☀️🎶💖💖💖🌻🤗
My pleasure ! Thank you for watching 😊
You can’t compare a $20 fake to the real thing. There are some real 18k exact replicas that are less than half the price that you wouldn’t be able to tell.
True! I've heard these dupes are great looking while still being in gold. Would be a cool video to make 😊
Well done🏁
Thank you 😀
I find these kind of comparisons intreaguing because it kind of scares my that replicas can be so alike with such a small price 🤯😬😅 but looks fade, quality stays! I’m also rooting for dupes/inspired products but replicas represent an industry to me that I don’t support 👎
I completely agree with you!! Replicas are kind of scary and I hope this video helped show the difference between the fake and the real thing. I love your saying: quality does stay 😍👌🏻
Why do both the real one and the replica look so scratched up? Is that part of the design? It's hard for me to tell.
They are scratched up because they are used. It's not part of the design. Metals get scratched over time when it's being used!
Love is more important than the bracelet 🙂
Totally agree ❤️
If only writing cartier and no other numbers etc...is this fake or original
hard to tell just with this information. Sorry!
The price you bought it for should tell you a lot about its authenticity 😅
Where did you buy the dupe ? Thanks
No idea! I borrowed it from a friend.
Great video.
In my experience, the principal difference and easy one to spot a replica are the side screws. In the replica’s ones, 90% of them, has a flat side screws, and not the more “raise” like the original.

Omg this is beautiful!! I love it💕 but I can’t tell the fake or real but it’s beautiful
Haha I know!! Replicas are getting better in better with time. Scary 😱. Happy you enjoyed the video 🥰
This vid helped a lot
Happy to hear !
Some counterfiet makes really good for fake. Thanks for this comparison.

Fake one is gold?
No, the fake one is in another material probably some type of stainless steel or titanium from memory. Lighter in weight.
Beautiful work Donna g👌👌👌👌❤❤💓💓🙏🙏😍😍👍
Thank you so much 😊
Welcm my friend🙏🙏😍👍
Thank you helps alot
Glad it helped!!
Why I am getting tired of love bracelet already. I want the Kelly Hermes bracelet now lol
Haha because everybody talks about it or aspire to get on! It gets tiring with time! Good for you for wanting something different afterall!

The replica looks pretty good but it’s not gold🤗🥰🤩
Exactly!! And to be honest, it doesn't feel very good quality when you have it on yourself 😂
I do not see a good reason to get the real one. No one will be able to tell the difference
I disagree! If you can't get the real one, forget about it and get something else 😊
I wear fakes n real so people cant tell. Dont like to be too flashy. When they ask if they real I say of course they are fake!

Well you could’ve given us a better look !
