No, I don't know....I ripped the stuff off. It sounds to me like you got them reversed though.
I would take it all apart, put the extra links back on...then lay it out upside down so you see the "button" link goes where it is in my picture.
If I remember right, the long end has the button link.
Remember, in my pic...the extension is in there, folded underneath. Also in my pic, the bracelet is installed and the crown is facing me.
