Quick and easy fix for PO diver extension prob

Recommended Posts

amuthon

Got my PO yesterday and really like it, besides the poor diver extension,

that won't stay in place and makes it tricky to close the bracelet.

Heard that some PO owners have the same problem with their bracelet.

Here is a quick and easy solution, that works fine for me.

 

I detected this piece isn't formed enough to tighten the extension inside the clasp:

release the bracelet from the watch and place it on a solid surface (hammerhead)

bring a screwdriver or center punch in position and beat the bastard (carefully) with a second hammer

Some light punshes on both sides solved the problem for me.

Sorry for my poor explanation, I hope you'll understand what I'm babblin...

It's a lazy sunday and my dictionary is on holiday!

Tell us if it worked for you.

You know, we're just too stupid to close the bracelet properly.

All these clasps work from the start, simply the noobs don't know how.

 

Maybe ask the wise trash heap
