Hey everyone!

So I wanted to share my experience with the Small Love. I've had it for like a year and it has been very very secure with no accidents. However, as I am traveling/working in Greece now - there was one incident that happened. I do not have my screw driver - the screw suddenly got loose~ and even with the magnetic closure - my love bracelet snapped open and hung on my wrist! Thankfully it was when I was in my hotel room and I saw it! I quickly snapped it back on and used a card to screw it back in place. However, I am not sure how this could even happen. I was quite sure this bracelet was more secure and less hassle than needing to tighten screws every week or so... but now I'm not so sure... I'm also the type to always look at it and check if my screws are in the right position too... Has this happened to any of you? What do you do? TIA.

Yes, unfortunately with one of my SM Pavées. Exactly what you said, suddenly it hang half open on my wrist. Never happened again since :shocked:

I hope its as you said - like a freak accident kind of thing... happens once and never again... a SM Pave love though - that would give me a bigger heart attack!

My mum actually lost the screw from her WG love last week :annoyed: she just looked down one day and it was done. The bracelet stayed on, but it was loose. I used the purple jewellers loctite on her bracelet and its a lot more secure now. You can just put a little on the screw or behind the screw mechanism so it can work its way in.

is your mom's the regular one or the SM love. Cause for SM love - it doesnt even really use the screw - so the screw won't be lost. But it's just crazy how it can turn itself and even open the magnetic closure! :P

I am glad she got it secured... but I've been reading this forum and people said they don't prefer to use loctite. So I'm still a little hesitant on using it.

Welding for sure is the ultimate thing to do but do we need to go *that* far?

That's what I'm thinking too... especially with the magnetic closure and the ability to not lose a screw on the SM love. It just baffles me how even the magnetic closure can open >.< And I always check to make sure my little screw is on the right position too!

It's the regular love.

I have loctite on my bracelet and the screws are extremely difficult to open, to the point where I can't get my bracelet off alone. It's good if you plan on never taking it off!
