Help - leather wrap bracelet with hook clasp that doesn't stay fastened

Close up of problem clasp

A short while ago I bought a double wrap leather bracelet with a hook clasp, while visiting my daughter.

Closed in wearing style

When wearing it I discovered a problem: As the bracelet loosens its wrap while wearing, the metal clasp comes unhooked. It makes it precarious and awkward to wear the bracelet.

Fully open

I am looking for suggestions on how I can fix this problem.

Is there a silver binding ring or clamp I could attach to the bracelet? I need something to keep the bracelet from loosening around my wrist.

Are there any other suggestions for me to try to make this bracelet wearable? As it is now I have wasted my money on it. Thank You.
