The bracelet is shiny and seems to retain its shine after having been worn quite a bit, through the shower, at work, in the kitchen and it is not as chunky or heavy as I thought it might be, but still feels comfortable when being worn. The clasp is a little awkward to use but is secure once you get it.
I found this bracelet not bad value for the money, but I would not like to pay any more than the price asked.
