Help need, rusty pin in bracelet....

[Salem]

Hi Folks,

First time post a thread in this forum. I recently bought a used gen omega. The watch is nice but 2 links of the bracelet were inserted with rusty pin. My punch and hammer only good for one of the pins. Now I still have 1 rusty pin in the link.

I read some post here about using vinegar or alum spice to dissolve steel, any one know if these will solve my problem? Which one should be better for a polished stainless steel bracelet? Will the vinegar or alum eat the polished surface of the bracelet?

I don't exactly know what made the rusty pin, but it seems some kind of small metal rod.

Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you very much.

Cheers,

Salem
