‘Not many people know this secret about Cartier, but if you have the Trinity bracelet, which happens to be one the cheapest bracelets that Cartier do, you can go into their store and change the color of the string as much as you like in your lifetime for free and often as you’d like,’ dished Amelia in the viral clip.
The Trinity bracelet consists of three circular charms wrapped around one another – one made out of 18-karat white gold, one made from 18-karat rose gold, and one made out of 18-karat yellow gold
‘You end up with a brand new-looking bracelet in five minutes.’
The Trinity bracelet consists of three circular charms wrapped around one another – one made out of 18-karat white gold, one made from 18-karat rose gold, and one made out of 18-karat yellow gold.
It sits on a thin ‘cord’ – which comes in a range of colors like green, blue, red, purple, pink, black, brown, and white.
While Cartier’s website doesn’t mention the hack Amelia discussed in her TikTok, someone backed up her claim on Reddit.
‘Yes, cord [change] is free – Cartier can do it in store on the spot,’ one user wrote in response to someone who asked if the brand would replace theirs.
However, on a forum called PurseBlog.com, someone else said it ‘depends on the Cartier store or and/or repair salesperson.
‘There’s no hard and fast rule,’ the person explained. ‘Some people have never gotten charged and seem to change a lot and some have been charged.’

Amelia’s TikTok got over 1.3 million views in a matter of days. Some viewers loved the tip, while others claimed the cord should be free anyway, since once person said it was ‘just a string’
Another user chimed in and wrote: ‘Hi, I have never been charged, in fact I have been given a couple of extra silk cords in different colors each time.’
‘No charge for me,’ commented someone else, while a fourth person said, ‘I have changed my cord MANY times, white, hot pink, gray, black, etc. and it was free EVERY time.
‘I am in Southern California. The Sales persons were always very kind, always encouraging me to come back and change up the colors for free any time I got bored.’
Amelia’s TikTok got over 1.3 million views in a matter of days, and it sparked a slew of comments from people who were excited to try it out themselves.
However, others claimed the cord should be free anyway, since once person pointed out that you’re spending so much on a bracelet that they described as ‘legit just a string.’
‘For the price of this little thing I’m gonna be changing the string everyday until I make up my money back,’ one person joked, while another added, ‘It looks like a hair tie.’
‘I can make this for free,’ said someone else. A fourth comment read: ‘This is like the friendship bracelets I made in 1993.’
‘Go on a holiday near the beach you’ll get one of those for [a few dollars],’ wrote a different user.
