If it is a standad Patek buckle it is just a spring bar and the only tool you need is a toothpick or similar [nt]

Finally received the new shoes for my precious
I now need to get to the boutique to get them on! Hopefully it’s going to look good!! Kev ...
how big is your wrist? what size did you order
i can only wear the S size but i think the XS is better size for my 5.9 inch wrist.
Hi it’s 16 cm I think
A really small one I usually go for what is smallest in terms of strap Kev
They are good
But too long for me I had to go for smaller ones The watch was moving a bit on the side of my wrist especially in winter time. Kev
New straps are really like shoes
You can polish shoes and they look like new again. A new strap makes the whole watch look new, if of course you have treated her good 😉
I don’t have the tools
And need to put the buckle back on the new strap. I am actually thinking about buying the tools but as I will be around the boutique this weekend anyway I’d rather get it done by pros though Kev
How do you get the deployant clasp off?
That seems harder. No quick release mechanism.
One screw on the “tang buckle end” of the strap and then just put the strap end through the other end and fasten the hook in the strap’s hole, just as easy
But the pic does show a tang buckle and not deployant from what I can see.
