Bracelet project

I’ve recently started a project to salvage a few bracelets..

What I’m doing is creating a full on bracelet with oyster links. With the issue being that if I wear the bracelet with just the links, it will be placed on my wrist and will not be able to come off unless I have a screwdriver, obviously.

does anyone have any ideas how to connect the links with the OEM clasp?(The OEM clasp has female connectors on each side.) But Obviously when it’s wrapped around there will be a discrepancy… and I will need a mechanism to connect the female part of the last link

If the OEM clasp idea is shot.. what other ways could I do this?

What? Why?

The glow of the 904 steel is pretty nice and I’d like to wear the links since I swapped out my bands for Rubber/ nato

Not “salvage”… more so to keep them out of the closet when they aren’t on the watch
