A watch buckling system having an anti-disassemble watch buckle and a disassemble tool, the anti-disassemble watch buckle comprising:
- a bottom housing and a top housing with an in-between space for accommodating a first strap, the anti-disassemble watch buckle having a first end and a second end being opposite to the first end;
- and
- a cantilever snap with a rear end fastened to the bottom housing at the first end, and with a front end hung in the in-between space;
- wherein the bottom housing has a protruding part facing the cantilever snap and the first end, and the top housing has a through hole;
- wherein the disassemble tool is used to compress the front end of the cantilever snap away from the in-between space via the through hole of the top housing, until the front end of the cantilever snap presses against the protruding part.

A method of operating an anti-disassemble watch buckle, comprising:
- providing an anti-disassemble watch buckle comprising a bottom housing, a top housing and a cantilever snap, a space being disposed between the bottom housing and the top housing for accommodating a first strap, the anti-disassemble watch buckle having a first end and a second end being opposite to the first end, the cantilever snap having a rear end fastened to the bottom housing at the first end, and a front end hung in the space;
- the first strap entering the space via a first end and moving toward the second end;
- the first strap compressing the cantilever snap by an inclined plane of the front end of the cantilever snap facing the first end, thereby moving the cantilever snap downward to exit the space;
- when the front end of the cantilever snap encounters a hole of the first strap, the cantilever snap moving upward into the hole by elastic restoring force;
- and
- a disassemble tool compressing the front end of the cantilever snap away from the space via a through hole of the top housing, until the front end of the cantilever snap presses against a protruding part of the bottom housing, thereby facilitating disassembling the first strap.
