Cuban bracelet

The Cuban link bracelet is a hip-hop style classic: oval, tightly spaced and flattened Cuban links that catch the light with every wrist movement. Discover our collection of Cuban link bracelets for men and women, available in polished, iced or colorful versions, from the discreet 5 mm style to the wide model that won't go unnoticed.

What is a Cuban link bracelet?

The Cuban link bracelet, also called a Miami Cuban or Cuban link bracelet in English, is a curb chain with thick, oval links placed tightly together and then flattened. This process creates dense, even and flexible Cuban links that follow the wrist without twisting. Originating in Miami in the 1970s, Cuban links became one of the symbols of hip-hop jewelry, worn both as a chain and as a bracelet.

Men's or women's Cuban link bracelet

The men's Cuban link bracelet is often chosen wide and bold, from 8 to 12 mm, for a real sense of volume. The women's Cuban link bracelet is generally worn slim, from 5 to 7 mm, alone or stacked with other bracelets. Cuban links are unisex: the width defines the style.

Choosing the width of your Cuban link bracelet

Finding the right length

Measure your wrist circumference with a tape measure, then add 1 to 2 cm for a comfortable bracelet that moves slightly.

Several models have an extension chain to adjust the length.

Materials and finishes

Our Cuban bracelets come in a gold finish or silver finish, depending on the model. Iced versions are set with rhinestones or cubic zirconia. The exact material and type of clasp (lobster clasp or box clasp) are indicated on each product page.

How to wear a Cuban bracelet

Wear your Cuban bracelet alone for a stylish touch, or pair it with a Cuban chain of the same width for a coordinated look. It also pairs very well with a watch or a tennis bracelet on the same wrist. To take it further, discover our matching Cuban rings.

Care

Remove your bracelet before showering, exercising, or swimming. Avoid contact with perfume and household products. Clean it with a soft, dry cloth and store it away from moisture to preserve the shine of the links.
