      That's my dilemma too.  I want the model 10 bracelet so bad but unsure of what size to go with so I really think it will warrant a trip to SELA to try them on in person.  I'm about a 7.25"-7.5" wrist and I was thinking of going 10A or 10AA.

        We actually just got a restock of all sizes of the Model 10 at SELA, because there's such little difference between each size I would try it on in person to determine which size/weight works for you.

          Mine is a 10A. Sizewise it may be a good idea to start with 1 to 1.5 inches longer as your real wrist circumference. Depends on how tight or loose you like it. I have a 7.5 wrist and ended up at 8.5.
          If unsure I‘d opt for a longer bracelet - you can have it shortened by any talented jeweler or goldsmith…

            That's exactly my plan.  The issue is that I'm in Phoenix so it's about a 5-6 hour drive to SELA so I've just got to set a weekend aside and make the trip.

              Thanks for the input.  I'm mainly referring to the link size though….I think the B's and up are going to be too big and bulky for my proportions based on photos I've seen so my gut tells me the A or AA will be the best for me.

                I would totally go try on if possible .:: but not for me … that way you will be able to dial in a perfect size/fit

                    Yes, size A worked out best for my 7.5 wrist. The B is too bulky for my taste. In addition, I‘m doing office and lab work, not motorcycle repair  😉
                    By the way, size A is not necessarily less heavy than the B. The slightly smaller size of the links is compensated by the higher number of links at a given length.
                    Size AA is too small and tiny for my liking in order to wear it every day. May be fine for business or formerly dressed occasions.

                      I've been wearing my B curb bracelet loads and it just gets better with a some dinks and scratches. Sizing is definitely a personal preference and I can see why its best to go bricks and mortar to see whats best. The guys at IH were nice enough to sending me two chains to get a better idea of sizing. Also bear in mind depending on time of year sizing / fit may vary.

                          @jay-cy Does your frida also turn/ spin on your finger all the time? I get massive OCD about it  ???  😃

                            No, it doesn’t. Frida stays in place. I have to admit that fit in my case is rather tight (0.5 sizes smaller than my usual ring size). I have to use some soap to get it over my knuckle when getting it off  😎

                              Yeah I thought that it has to be tight on your fingers because mine fits on a sweet spot between too tight and too loose if it makes sense. It's neither easy nor hard to put it on or take it off. It's rather easy to turn the ring on my finger and with soap it's even much easier. I get massive OCD when the biggest flower doesn't stay right in the middle and on top  😃 😃

                                Bracelet comparison between the bead bracelet, bottle bracelet, and 10B. Next time I hit SF I want to give the 10AA a shot. The B is great but it gets heavy after a while.

                                  Weight was an issue for me opting for the A size. IMO the best compromise for everyday use…

                                        @manufc10 Late to this discussion but another data point for you… I tried all the A sizes at SELA and settled on the 10AAA for my 7.5" wrist. It felt the most balanced for everyday wear for me (lot of office work and frequent international air travel). The larger sizes also seemed overpowering given I like to wear fairly large rings also; a bit too much metal on one hand/wrist for my liking.

                                        Let me know if/when you make the trek out to SELA - perhaps an impromptu meetup...

                                          @Manticore thanks for the valuable input, much appreciated.  I can never remember if the sizes get bigger or smaller when you add more A's (is 10A bigger or smaller than 10AA/10AAA?)…

                                          I will let you know when/if I make the trip so SELA... @Paul9221 is also in LA and I'll be letting him know as well.  Maybe we can make it a threesome….
