“The reason I rated the quality only a 3 was because I effectively ended up buying this piece twice. The slide on the first one was so loose that I ended up loosing the bracelet within a relative short period of time. However, since I loved the bracelet, I bought it again with the plan to somehow tying the ends together to prevent it from happening again. Luckily the second one I received had a much tighter slide and I do anticipate the same problem. Its just a shame that I effectively paid double to get the bracelet. Had it not been for that, I would have given it 5 stars. Buyer beware if you get one with a loose slide.”
