BRACELETS FOR MEN
A man may wear a silver ring to follow example of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) on the basis of scholarly consensus; in fact it is Sunnah to do so, as we have seen above. … But wearing bracelets and some other things such as bangles and necklaces is not permissible for him even if they are made of silver, because that is a kind of effeminacy that is not befitting for dignified men.

Ibn Hajar al-Haytam said:
It is haraam to imitate them (i.e., women) by wearing fashions that are unique to them, such as wearing bracelets, anklets and the like, unlike wearing rings. al-Fataawa al-Kubra, 1/261
الشيخ زكريا الأنصاري رحمه الله :
" وَلِلرَّجُلِ لُبْسُ خَاتَمِ الْفِضَّةِ لِلْإِتْبَاعِ وَالْإِجْمَاعِ ، بَلْ يُسَنُّ له كما مَرَّ ... ، لَا لُبْسُ السِّوَارِ ، بِكَسْرِ السِّينِ وَضَمِّهَا ، وَنَحْوِهِ ، كَالدُّمْلُجِ وَالطَّوْقِ ؛ فَلَا يَحِلُّ له ، وَلَوْ من فِضَّةٍ ؛ لِأَنَّ فيه خُنُوثَةٌ لَا تَلِيقُ بِشَهَامَةِ الرِّجَالِ "

وقال ابن حجر الهيتمي رحمه الله :
" يَحْرُمُ التَّشَبُّهُ بِهِنَّ [ أي : بالنساء ] بِلُبْسِ زِيِّهِنَّ الْمُخْتَصِّ بِهِنَّ اللَّازِمِ في حَقِّهِنَّ كَلُبْسِ السِّوَارِ وَالْخَلْخَالِ وَنَحْوِهِمَا بِخِلَافِ لُبْسِ الْخَاتَمِ " . " الفتاوى الفقهية الكبرى" (1/261) .
