How To Resize And Adjust A Metal Watch Band

Here is how to resize a metal watch band. When you buy a watch with a metal band, you will probably need to remove a link or two for it to fit properly around your wrist. This video shows you how to resize and adjust a metal watch band. The resizing links are marked with arrows. Push the pin out of the resizing link in the direction of the arrow with a paper clip to remove the link. Remove the proper number of links for the watch to fit on your wrist, and you have learned how to resize and adjust your metal watch band.
If you need watch repair tools, this kit is affordable and has all the tools:

Here is where to get the watch I resized the band in in the video:

I heard that hard ass "buckle" 😂💀

[@ACoustaDC]

I might add that if you are going to take out 2 links that you should do one from 1 side and one from the other side, so that the band is even... makes for a better fit and feel. Nice demo and ya save us all a bunch of money with hints like this!!!! (first again)

[@MomTheEbayer101]

He say buckle HARD as heck lol

[@gaz7051]

Thanks a billion. Have been struggling so much in the past with these type of watches, I've just got a new one which i really didn't want to got to the jewellers as the last time the really badly damaged my previous watches, so i wanted to make sure that this one didn't get damaged and it didn't thanks to you! Thanks very much!

Ha! I found this video with a simple search for "How to resize watch band" and what's crazy is, I'm almost certain that's the exact same watch I bought! What are the chances?!!! Thanks for the video. Looking forward to trying this tonight. The band it came with is HUGE (like, I could wear it on my bicep - lol!)

[@KB-sh3ri]

had bought a watch that fit to big so I just had it laying around til today that my mom had a little pre graduation ceremony and I wanted to wear it to make my outfit pop a lil more. Great video, I only needed like the first 2 mins and was on my way to making my watch smaller in the car as we arrived to the university. Came out great now ima keep wearing it

Thanks man. Just because of you I was able to fix my watch

[@hoohoohoblin]

No welcome. I’m glad I could help.

[@jimcooper3048]

Thanks a bunch for cluing me into how to do this. Now - a couple of things I discovered: a small vise is super useful for this, as it can hold the metal band in place while you aim and tap the knockout wire. Place a cloth across the opening of the vise and press it into the opening a bit - this will protect the band from scratching AND will catch the pin if you drive it too far out. A small pair of pliers (vise-grip pliers even better) are useful for pulling the pin out the rest of the way; and for starting the pin back in the hole again. When putting the band back together, be sure you don't get it "inside out"!! (guess who did that the first time...)

[@hoohoohoblin]

Excellent advice! Thanks.
