It's more a gimmick than a real tool, do not count on the "forked" to remove a bracelet, as the metal is so "soft" that the fork departs instead of pulling on the bar. The "sharp" side can possibly do his job to push the pins of metal bracelets, but in this case the need to buy this product, a nail or any thin metal rod will do. For the price I have not lost much, fortunately.
