I recently bought 2 more of these bracelets because of a 'flaw' with the first one, which is weak links. The bracelet would just randomly fall off. I reinforced the first one with jump rings which works fine where the links are round (not so pretty though), but then I realized the paperclip links are the ones that are opening a gap...which is a major flaw for the bracelet (IMO) because my second one just fell off and I've only had it 2 weeks. (I didn't even need to look down when I heard something hit the floor, I knew it was the bracelet). The paperclip chain is the weak link on this one, too. I can stick my fingernail in the gap. I'm not sure how I'm going to strengthen it and it's very disappointing because I love the bracelet so much.
