obelisque Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Bracelet is too wide. How do you adjust it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmena Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 6 inches is a very small wrist. Mine is 6.4 and I though it was very small. Unless you can not unscrew some screws, you should be able to size it... I have same type of bracelet and I only have two screws still on. I had to remove another 3 or 4.

HauteHippie Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Thanks for your answer and as I suspected. Will put it up for sale.... Will have to check carefully before getting another watch - guess I just have been lucky so far with the models I have choosen. Try moving the pin in the clasp to the tightest setting also. And never buy a Panerai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Agree with Chief- Try adjusting at the clasp... Usually, with a standard non-diver's extension clasp, you can get a good 18mm - 20mm adjustment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfreeman420 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Yep that is one long bracelet. You have one more link to take out, but you have to be really careful if it is too tight. They are easy to strip. Do the screws go through to the opposite side of the clasp? Are there any more to take out of the other half of the bracelet?

Zed Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 If you can see the screw on the other side use a pin pusher to push it out .. Some get cross threaded and stripped in there and won't budge so just push it out if you can or use a hammer and block to hammer it out ...

alligoat Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Have you considered a leather strap? I have one of my Frankenjusts on a dark brown leather strap and actually prefer it to the metal band. And leather straps come in regular, small and long. And at $15-20, they're reasonably priced and very comfortable. BTW, I like Zed's idea with the pin pusher tool- if you can keep pressure on the end of the screw, and turn w/ a screwdriver from the other end, you might be able to back it out.

eunomians Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Nice watch. Try a leather strap. Perhaps an Alligator. It would look unique and very elegant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
