Resizing tool for 5711?
When I got my 5711 I had it resized twice - After the 3rd link was taken out it felt too small, so I decided to get a 1.5 link. It took a while before I got it, and I did not wear the watch until I did. Ironically the day I went to get the 1.5 link I wore the watch (with all standard links) and it felt really comfortable. The watchmaker recommended I'd get the 1.5 link anyway... Now I am starting to think I don't need the 1.5 link anymore as it feels just a tad too big... (I also lost some weight btw)
Anyway, don't feel like having to go back to the service center every time, so was wondering if anyone can recommend a tool that allows me to change out links myself,,,
Cheers!

recommend it..... The bracelet is quite unique, difficult to resize if you are not an expert and you could scratch it.... Cheers
It's a screw driver
I did almost the same thing. I put in a 1.5 link and then decided it was too tight. I went to the jeweler and he changed it right in front of me. He simply used a jeweler's screw driver. He did mention that tightening them was a bit tricky and I should ch...
