love bracelet can only be removed with a screwdriver

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2836111/Manacled-women-paying-4-000-look-bracelet-screwdriver.html

Manacled! Why ARE so many women paying £4,000 for this look-at-me bracelet... which you can only take off with a screwdriver? 

Cartier launched Love bangles in 1969 - designed for one's true love 
Now the bracelet has become the latest must have among celebrities 
Lindsay Lohan, Katie Holmes and Pippa Middleton spotted wearing one
Consists of two C-shape halves which are secured using two screws
A replacement screw costs £25 and bracelets range from £4k to £40k

I actually love the idea of needing the key to unlock it, sort of like a sign of faithfulness to your better half. But style wise, ya gotta go with the Diamond version ladies [link:https://www.opulentjewelers.com/shop/cartier-love-diamond-bangle-bracelet-18k-white-gold/| Granted it's a bit more than £4,000, but worth it...
