I saw this bracelet then read the reviews. I bought the bracelet anyway. Most of the reviews said nice and great price but almost all said bracelet very hard to open. I figured, if anything I would return it if I couldn't open and close easily. The bracelet is excellent for the price, the diamonds fit the bracelet and the bracelet is NOT hard to open and close, simply push one end into the other to close. Where the safety latch is gently press and pull the bracelet apart to open. I would recommend to friends and it makes a lovely gift. Just love mine.
