Size guide
Find your bracelet size
Measure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
- Wrap the strip around your wrist, just above the wrist bone, snug but not tight.
- Mark with the pen where the end overlaps.
- Lay it flat and measure from the end to the mark: that is your wrist size.
- Find your wrist in the table below and read the bracelet length, close fit or looser.
Already have a bracelet that fits well? Lay it flat, clasp closed, measure it end to end and order that length.
No ruler? A bank card is 8.6 cm long: count how many fit along your strip.

How to wear it
At 23 cm (9.1 in), this bracelet is made for a broad wrist, roughly 20 to 21.5 cm, where it sits with a little movement. A double chain runs to a lobster clasp, with a small hollow cross hanging near it. It looks plain and solid next to a watch, with a work shirt or a T-shirt.
The stainless steel does not rust, so it can stay on in the shower, at the gym or on a job site. It comes in a silver finish only, easy to match with a steel watch. It suits a son starting his first job, a friend in a hard year, or Father's Day.
Questions
What wrist size does a 23 cm bracelet fit?
A broad wrist of about 20 to 21.5 cm (7.9 to 8.5 in). On a slimmer wrist it will hang loose.
What does the cross look like?
It is a small hollow cross, an open outline, hanging from the double chain near the lobster clasp.
Does it come in gold or black?
No. It comes in a silver finish only, which matches a steel watch.
Is the double chain of The Bonded Cross sturdy enough for daily wear?
Yes. The double chain, the hollow cross and the lobster clasp are all stainless steel, made to stay on every day without rusting.
Is it a good gift for a man who does not wear jewelry?
Yes. A plain double chain with a small cross is understated enough for a man who usually wears only a watch.
Is The Bonded Cross a good Father's Day gift for a dad with a broad wrist?
Yes. At 23 cm (9.1 in) it is cut for a broad wrist, and its silver finish sits naturally next to a steel watch.
Bracelet for a large wrist, men's cross
Measure the wrist with a tape first, then add a little room so it does not pinch. The Bonded Cross is 23 cm (9.1 in) in stainless steel, with a small cross near the clasp, the longest of these. The Gilded Strands comes in 20 or 22 cm, with twisted cables around a cut-out cross. A bracelet that fits gets worn, and one that is worn gets noticed in the middle of an ordinary day, which is the point of it. More: Cross Bracelets for Men.
My husband lost his dad last month and he won't talk about it. I'd like to give him something small but I have no idea what to write with it.
Silence is sometimes the only shape his grief can take right now, and you are already doing the hard part by staying next to it. A small sign can say what he cannot hear out loud: this is not yours to carry alone. The Bonded Cross, is a light bracelet with a small cross hanging near the clasp, easy for a man who wears little. You might write: 'You don't have to talk about him. I just want you to know I pray for you both every night.' Leave it where he will find it. Galatians 6:2 asks us to carry each other's burdens, and it never says we have to discuss them first.

Its meaning
Paul, an ambassador in chains
Several of Saint Paul's letters were written while he was a prisoner.
To the Ephesians he calls himself an ambassador in bonds, and to the Philippians he writes that his bonds in Christ had become known in all the palace. For Paul, the chain became part of his witness rather than a defeat. A cross on a chain bracelet can carry that memory for a man who holds on through hard times. This one hangs a simple cross from a strong link bracelet, 23 cm (9.1 in) long, in silver-tone stainless steel with a lobster...
Giving it as a gift
Give it to a son starting his first job, or to a friend going through a hard year. For Father's Day, it fits a man with a large wrist who likes simple things.
