Fat Five 0 Posted June 21, 2011 Got a beautiful Chanel J12 from Mary for the wife but two links have to be removed from the bracelet. Has anyone done this? Neither myself or my watch repair guy can figure out how to remove the links. Thanks, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdubt 0 Posted June 21, 2011 get a push pin. a thumb tack. one side of the pin has a tiny hole in the middle, the other side is just flat. push the pin into teh side with a tiny hole in the middle. the pin will fall out the other side. it's like a 2 piece pin, one side is a pin and other side just a donut that grabs onto the end of the pin. I used a thumb tack and it worked great. ok i used the word pin a lot. LOL seriously you have to push something very very tiny into the side of the link pin that has a tiny tiny hole in the middle.

HeavyKrush 16 Posted October 16, 2012 Ditto here. Really should get a link remover. Check out the RWG shop for the complete tool kit or pick up a cheap one on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/SE-Watchband-Link-Remover-Tool/dp/B002QI6G3E/ref=sr_1_24?s=watches&ie=UTF8&qid=1350386169&sr=1-24&keywords=Band+sizing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted October 16, 2012 Ditto Ditto - Luths post was most useful. They are very tight though and need a real bash BUT remember Cermic is brittle so take care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
