Very very creative, will the paint last, or will it Crack, chip and peel off? BTW, I really like the look!

If it’s been done right, with a suitable rubber paint, then it should have sufficient flexibility to cope with the bending arc when worn.

Looks good.
I would be a bit worried though about how much of an attention-grabber this would be on my wrist. Sam |

im not an expert but looks like it cracks because the outside of the bracelet stretches slightly when put on the wrist
maybe if you paint it while it is on the wrist, when the rubber is already stretched then the paint will go into the parts that open up cant really explain but hopefully you know what i mean
