At least the older-style flip lock clasp did not have welds that are apt to fail

No thanks.........I will keep my tried and true flip lock design.

I like the old lightweight, rattly oyster bracelets!

I don't have a problem with the design of the flip lock clasp, but I just wish that it were made of a heavier guage steel. I know it's built sturdy enough, but it still does seem a little flimsy to me. I'd like it to have a beefier feel, more in keeping with the bracelet itself.
