This is a very handsome, well made bracelet, with a secure snap closure. Why it ended up being too big for my son, I don't know for certain, as I have not had the chance to measure the bracelet, nor his wrist, since he got it. He says his wrist is 8.3" and the talented person who made this by, hand, claims ithe bracelet is 8.3 "in length. If anything, one might think it might be too small. When and if I have the chance to measure both I will update as to where the error lies.
