A Guide to Men’s Gold Bracelets

When it comes to accessorising, men’s bracelets have transitioned from a symbolic jewellery piece to a stylish and versatile way to elevate any outfit. From casual looks to formal attire, the right bracelet can add a touch of personality and flair to complete your selected ensemble. 

In this guide, we'll explore some popular types of men's bracelets and offer tips on how to style them to create a polished and put-together look.

What are the Different Types of Men's Bracelets?

At Hatton Jewellers, we have an array of men’s bracelets to choose from, featuring different design elements to suit any style. Each type brings a touch of unique character to your wardrobe. 

By understanding the different bracelet types and learning how to style them effectively, you can effortlessly enhance your outfit and show off your personal style with confidence.

Belcher Bracelets

Belcher bracelets are characterised by their symmetrical round or oval links. This classic design exudes simplicity and elegance. They can be worn solo for a minimalist look or layered with other bracelets to create a stylish stack. And their versatility makes them suitable for both casual and formal occasions.

Miami Cuban Bracelets

For those seeking a bold and luxurious statement piece, Miami Cuban bracelets are an excellent choice. These bracelets feature thick, interlocking links that project a strong and confident aesthetic. Often worn as a standalone accessory, a Miami Cuban bracelet can instantly draw attention and add an air of sophistication to any outfit.

Rope Bracelets

Rope bracelets are crafted by twisting and braiding strands of material, creating a distinctive textured appearance that resembles a rope. They come in various materials such as leather, fabric, or metal. Rope bracelets inject a touch of ruggedness and nautical charm into your ensemble, making them ideal for casual outings and beach-inspired looks.

Curb Bracelets

Curb bracelets are recognised by their flat, interlocking links with a slight twist. This design delivers a balanced combination of elegance and masculinity. Curb bracelets are versatile enough to complement both casual and formal outfits. Their sleek appearance adds an element of refinement to your wrist.

Mariner/Anchor Bracelets

Mariner bracelets, also known as anchor bracelets, pay homage to maritime themes, featuring a looped rope design with a metal or nautical-themed fastener. These bracelets are known for their relaxed and beachy vibe. They pair perfectly with laid-back, summer-inspired outfits and are a great way to infuse some coastal charm into your look.

Byzantine Bracelets

Byzantine bracelets stand out with their intricate and ornate woven links. These bracelets often have a more substantial feel and are ideal for those who appreciate detailed craftsmanship. A Byzantine bracelet can also serve as a statement piece, adding a touch of elegance to both casual and formal ensembles.

How to Style Men's Gold Bracelets 

There are many ways to style your bracelets and create an array of looks. Make a bold statement and wear them alongside other pieces of men’s jewellery, such as chains and necklaces. Or sport them alone, as a simple yet stylish accessory. Consider the looks you love for inspiration - the choice is yours.

If you’re in need of a little further inspiration, here are our top tips on how to accentuate different men’s bracelets:

Minimalist Elegance: If you prefer clean and minimalistic jewellery pieces, opt for a single belcher or curb bracelet on one wrist. This understated look is perfect for both professional and casual events.

Layered Looks: Experiment with mixing different bracelet types. For instance, combine a rope bracelet with a belcher or anchor bracelet. Ensure they're of varying weights and dimensions to create a dynamic and stylish stack that’s perfectly tailored to your style.

Bold Statements: To make a bold fashion statement, we recommend wearing a Miami Cuban bracelet on its own. Keep the rest of your accessories stripped back and simple to allow this piece to take centre stage.

Beach Vibes: If you’re jetting off to sunnier climates, a nautical-inspired anchor bracelet can make the perfect holiday accessory. Pair this with a casual outfit, such as a linen shirt and chinos, to add a touch of relaxed charm to your ensemble.

Formal Flair: Byzantine or Miami Cuban bracelets can also look slick alongside formal attire, adding a unique touch to your ensemble. Just be sure the bracelet complements your outfit's colour scheme and style to enjoy the full effect.

Wrist Symmetry: When layering bracelets, aim for balance. If you're wearing a watch, choose a bracelet that complements its style and doesn't overwhelm your overall look. Alternatively, opting to wear rings and bracelets on the opposite wrist to your watch can be a simple way to ensure your accessories aren’t competing against one another.

Textural Harmony: Consider the textures of different materials when pairing your outfits with your jewellery. Leather or fabric bracelets pair well with casual outfits, while metal bracelets work better with smart-casual or formal looks.
