Once lifted, a second adjustment location is found, but without the spring-operated toggle lever system (the middle flap will open anytime the locking cover and\/or the clasp is opened). In order to open the middle flap,\u00a0the user has to lift the flap past the natural point of equilibrium, causing the clasp to automatically open itself as the spring function activates.\u00a0The Oyster bracelet can then be slid out or in, to lengthen or to shorten, allowing for a precise fit. Once adjusted, the center section closes to lock the bracelet at the precisely chosen length.\u00a0The Glidelock Clasp\u00a0utilizes the ultimate mechanical system available from a functional point of view, and at all expense necessary.
