Adjusting the metal bracelet
If you have decided on a metal bracelet, you can easily adjust it to the size
of your wrist. You can make this adjustment yourself by removing or adding
individual bracelet links.
Taking the bracelet apart and removing individual links
Open the push-button release safety clasp by pressing
the button on the side. Lay the bracelet with its top sur-
face on a firm base. Using the special tools provided, you
can now push down the securing pin (1) at the desired
point of separation and, at the same time, displace the
pivot pin laterally by about 3 mm (2) with the second
special tool. Now pull the protruding pivot pin from the
bracelet (3). The metal bracelet is now separated, and
you can adjust the length of the bracelet by removing or
adding individual links.
Determining bracelet length
Place the watch with the bracelet open around your wrist
and estimate the number of surplus bracelet links that you
can now remove from the bracelet (as described above).
If you need to shorten the bracelet by several links, you
should remove the same number of links from each half of
the bracelet, if possible, to ensure that the clasp can be worn more or less
at the centre of the wrist. To enable you to adapt the bracelet as accurately
as possible to the size of your wrist, we have included an extra-long bracelet
link in the clasp. Your bracelet is shortened by an intermediate amount by
omitting this bracelet link, and finer adjustment to the length of the bracelet
can be made in this way. Keep the surplus links and the separating tools
safely for use in subsequent adjustments.
