Beautiful piece of jewelry. Easy enough to get the ball in and out once you loosen it. Great purchase!

Probably best at smaller gauges. At double zero the ball is almost impossible to get out or back in. Don't think they look as good either. Also being squared there not a good idea for newer stretchings.

these are so awesome, but opening and closing pliers are necessary
