The size is for a child, not an adult. Can't wear!

This product is not suitable for adult wrists. I'm very disappointed as they were supposed to be gifts (I bought two) and because I was so busy I missed the return window!

Pros
  • I wear it every day
Cons
  • higher price

Well built and literally beautiful

The strap is on the thicker side, which I didn't like at first, but I've come to the conclusion that it won't buckle if the end catches on something. The thickness allows for deeper engraving in my opinion and the clarity of this self-admonition is remarkable. The strip is very smooth and the finish is very shiny. All of these qualities make it a fantastic choice for yourself or as a gift for a friend who needs a reminder to keep the bastards at bay.

Pros
  • Fits perfectly, does not turn the skin green, good quality
Cons
  • Quote May Be Misinterpreted: Because the quote on the bracelet is written in Latin, it may be misinterpreted by others unfamiliar with that language. This can lead to misunderstandings and even ridicule.
