Charge (not HR) users - how well does the band stay clasped?

My first grader has been asking for a Fitbit just like mommy and daddy's (we both have Charge HRs now). I bought him a cheap pedometer watch from Amazon for Christmas with a slap bracelet-type band, but he was disappointed by it - he really wanted one exactly like ours. I'll be darned if I'm going to buy him one EXACTLY like ours 
, but I was thinking of getting him a used or refurbished regular Charge for his birthday (looks like ebay or Groupon can hook me up for $50-70, which is doable for his main b-day gift), until I noticed the regular Charge seems to have the clasp like the old Force with the tabs that just snap in, rather than a buckle-type like our Charge HRs. How well does that stay buckled? Would you trust an active 7 year old with it? I mean, I'm realistic, even if I super-glued it to him he'd lose it eventually , I just don't want it gone on day 2.
