A tennis bracelet should follow the wrist elegantly without sliding too much up and down.

Add 1 cm for an ideal fit.<\/p>\n<p>The most common and well-balanced fit for a tennis bracelet is wrist measurement + 1 cm. This allows for a little movement without the bracelet twisting around the wrist or sliding up onto the hand. If you prefer a looser feel, add + 1.5 cm.<\/p>\n<p>For slimmer wrists\u2014or if you prefer a closer fit\u2014+ 0.5 cm may be just right.<\/p>\n<p>Example: A 16 cm wrist = a 17 cm tennis bracelet.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-2118077749\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<h3>Consider the diamond size<\/h3>\n<p>A tennis bracelet with larger diamonds is stiffer and may therefore feel tighter.
