goldrolexdaydate 0 Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Just wanted to share this trick with anybody who hasn't heard of it, and is having problems with a loose clasp which keeps opening on their rolex - have tried it myself with oyster bracelet and president bracelet clasps, works very well.

Hmm maybe try slightly bending the other side, but to make it less curved? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narikaa 129 Posted August 17, 2017 It doesn't really matter which 'arm' of the clasp you alter as it's the actual change in overall relative length between 'hinge' and 'catch' that increases/decreases the strength of closure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tried both mate, even used the egde of my marble countertop as a hinge and pushhed down, won't budge ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah ok, then probably the actual catch which holds the two parts of the clasp together is not deep enough or maybe twisted out to a weird angle. I'm not too sure what the fix would be.
