And it worked like a charm. (Hobby screw driver kit) Posted on 12/28/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By Gabriella (Guest Post) Thanks! Great tip! Save me money. I used push pins which also work fine. Posted on 11/16/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By (Guest Post) gr8 post, worked like a charm on my new Invicta I bought online. Important to push the pin out in the direction of the arrow on the clasp. Thanks a bunch.

Spent 20 minutes with a paper clip before you pointed me in the right direction. THANKS! Posted on 06/04/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By (Guest Post) I used the end of a paper clip to remove 6 links, then I have remaining one at each end should someday not be so skinny.

I did remove 5 links in about 10mins (some of which was spent looking for another tack). The best ones were the OVERSIZED pushpins. A gentle tap with a hammer and pull with a plier and my watch was perfect! THANK YOU!

After reading your post I had the pin out in seconds. Thanks! Posted on 04/05/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By Don (Guest Post) Beautiful.

Posted on 03/05/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By Allison (Guest Post) AWESOME - simply AWESOME! I was about to order a kit from eBay when I tried once more to find a resolution on-line. This worked WONDERS - even on one of my old watches that the pins had, essentially, frozen in the holes. Thank you for sharing this wonderful tip! Posted on 02/21/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By Imz (Guest Post) Thanks! I bought a costume jewelry watch super cheap off eBay. I'm used to the screw-type pins or spring-loaded ones in watches. These push pins had me stumped. Thought I would have to waste the money I saved, at a jeweler, to get these links off.

Great tip as long as you are careful. Posted on 01/29/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By rschmitty (1) Contact My Timex expansion watch band doesn't have holes in it to insert a tack. If I had a band with holes in it, how do you rejoin the ends after you remove a section?

Posted on 12/05/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By New watch owner (Guest Post) Yes, I too agree that the thumbtack idea works great. I looked around the house for something that would work, then found this online and it set me straight. Works exactly as described. No need to take a trip to the jeweler.

Just bought a new watch yesterday and took care of the band myself, then went back to a couple of old watches I had around and adjusted those as well. Posted on 07/20/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Watchband Links By Craig (Guest Post) Thanks for the thumb tack idea, it worked great. I do admit to using a push pin though. Hey, what the heck, you nailed it!! Posted on 06/26/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse
