Links Removal Tool
How to adjust watch bracelet links:
Step 1
Flip the watch band over and check the underside. Links that can be removed will have an arrow etched on them. The arrow's direction indicates which way to push the pin to slide it out of the link. The link you choose to remove will be attached to another link on each side by a thin metal pin or, in some cases, a screw.
Step 2
Place the watch, underside facing up, on a lint-free cloth. Using a cloth makes it easier to collect the small links and pins you remove and prevents the pins from rolling away
Step 3
Locate the pin head on the side of the link. Adjust the space on the tool kit’s platform by twisting the handle. Place the watch bracelet on the platform and adjust the height by using the crown on the side. Line up the pin head of the link segment that you wish to remove next to the pin pusher bit.
Step 4
Gently adjust the handle to push the pin in the direction indicate by the arrow. As the pin emerges out the other side of the link, pull it out carefully to avoid scratching the metal band. If the links are secured with screws, use a screwdriver to carefully twist them out.
Step 5
Remove the second pin from the other side of the link to remove the link from the band completely. You will now have two pins: the link you removed and the two remaining links disconnected on one end. You will need one of the pins to attach the remaining, disconnected links to each other.
Step 6
Fit the disconnected links together so the holes in their ends line up. Insert the pin through the holes with needle-nosed pliers. Gently tap the pin into place with a craft hammer. If the watch uses screws, insert them with a screwdriver. Do not mis-thread the screw or force the screw into place, which will damage the threads. Collect the loose links and pins and store them in a safe place in case you need to reinsert them into the band.
