Where to find a birthstone Rosary bracelet?

I need some help.
Not long after our miscarriage, I bought a November birthstone Rosary bracelet for me to wear in remembrance of our little Saint. My intent is to get a Rosary bracelet for each child we have, and eventually combine all the colors into one Rosary bracelet. But that’s down the road.
The one I purchased from Aquinas and More was wonderful. It is the youth size, which is fine for me because I have very tiny wrists. The only problem, is that the links would come apart and it would fall off. Greg would repair it, reclasp it on me and I’d be set.
However …
Last night, Greg and I went on a walk around the Diocesean college campus. While the walk was beautiful, the bracelet again broke but without either of us noticing it. It’s pretty much Not Going To Happen to find it again, so I’m left to repurchase a November bracelet and a bracelet for Elise (be it August or September).
I will most likely go through Aquinas and More, but I was wondering if anyone had other places to buy birthstone Rosary bracelets. I’m a little scared that if I get two more from Aquinas and More, that this situation will repeat itself. Not that Aquinas and More sells bad things – not hardly! Maybe I got a dud, but either way; I still use Aquinas and More for my Catholic needs, and will continue to do so.
I’d like to keep the costs down, and depending on the size I can wear either youth or small adult. The bracelet from Aquinas and More was 6 and three-quarters, which fit perfectly (even in my 39th week of pregnancy!).
I plan on doing some Googling but I was just curious if anyone had any suggestions. Thank you! :>
edit
I did end up finding it (thank YOU, St. Anthony), but I’ve not had Greg fix it yet. I’m afraid I’m going to lose it again. :/

The Anchoress recommended St. Hubert’s Rosary Bracelets on her blog… I don’t have one, but I’m willing to take her word for it!

Hi Kim,
Can you tell me which bracelet it was? I will contact the manufacturer about the problem you are having.
God bless,
