Which Clasp Do I Choose? You get a choice between two high quality clasp styles. Each has its advantages, so it's really a matter of personal preference. Mag-Lok Clasp: The Mag-Lok is a very strong, self-aligning rare earth magnet encased in sterling silver. The advantage of a Mag-Lok is that it's easy to open and close with one hand. The disadvantage is that, being a magnet, it will grab onto metallic objects when it gets close to them, which can be annoying to some people (but entertaining for others). To open the Mag-Lok, it is best to SLIDE the two halves apart rather than pulling. A thumbnail can be handy to get it started. It closes itself! Mag-Lok Cautions: Those with pacemakers should not wear the Mag-Lok clasp. Mag-Lok clasps should not be worn on the same wrist as certain types of watches because magnetism may cause them to gain or lose time. Analog quartz, spring drive, and mechanical watches may be adversely affected, but digital quartz are fine because they have no motor. Lobster Claw Clasp: A lobster claw style clasp is the tried-and-true classic jewelry closure. The advantage is, it's a bit lighter and prettier. However, it can also be a bit more challenging to attach and detach using one hand, especially for those with arthritis or poor vision.
