This bracelet is the perfect color and weight. I wear it every day. It seems very durable, I will be putting it to the test! Customer service was great, too. I inquired as to the material these are made of, since I couldn't find that mentioned on the website. They are a metal alloy with plated color. The metal is strong and the color seems to be holding fast. The email response was quick and courteous. All this and it took some trash out of the ocean!
