ubiquitous Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hmmmm... Looks like a press fit 'rivet' head pin. Not sure that I have anything that will work, but I will check! Wish I had my old clasp still... I'd just give it to you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narikaa Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Any watchsmith worth his salt will do a 'lifetime fix' on this for a couple of bucks by replacing that push fit with a solid straight pin peaned over to a dome head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbywaingro Posted April 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Just made another order (for the IWC 3717) with the dealer that provided this watch, and she will send a new pin so i can fix this bracelet. ...also ordered the rubber strap so i can put the SS bracelet to rest for awhile. Anyhow, thanks for all the help guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
