    Thank you so much for this video. Got a very inexpensive set of required tools from Amazon ($10) and with your step by step guide was able to take links out from each side of the watch with absolutely no problem. My local jeweler wanted to charge me $15 just for the one time, now I'm independent for life!

    Thanks for this. My Wife had an old Omega watch that was a little tight, so after familiarising myself with how the pins/links worked using your guide, I was able to resize it by adding a couple of links to it. I had to make do with using a SIM needle and a meat tenderiser lol, but I was very careful and had no trouble other than being unable to recess the pins as described at 3:30.

    I just adjusted my watch by removing 5 chain links, easier said than done without the proper tools, but absolutely worth it. Thank you for showing me how to do this! The arrows are crucial to find the links that can be adjusted, my watch had 8 of them (4 on each side). Additionally, you can further fine-tune the size by the clip in the middle. The pin that goes in there is spring-loaded. With a nail you can dislodge the pin and move it to another slot. Also, if you have a nail with a flat head, you can use it to press into the opposite side of a link you're trying to reassemble. That keeps the structure in place. Make sure that the nail is a bit bigger than the hole though, otherwise it will wedge itself in. Keep that nail bottom side and rested on a crafting table, and whack ahead. Make sure to check regularly whether the pin is actually going where it's supposed to.

    all the reactions about you "yanking" out the pin only mean they haven't tried it themselves. I found this video really useful and well put together. It sure helped me, and yes, I had to "yank" it out too. Maybe in a 2 dollar watch the pins aren't as hard to pull out, but mine surely were. And I probably would have stopped trying (out of fear of damaging the watch) if you hadn't shown that the use of force was necessary. Great job and thank you!!!!!
