The best and safest way, would be to bring it to a place where they repair watches and such, should cost you under 10$.

Yup, take it to the "Bomb Squad".

They push out from one side, but there are sleeves on the pins, or at least in the one I had taken apart there were, so be careful not to loose them. I suggest pushing them out with a pick or similar tool inside of a plastic freezer bag so you can catch anything that comes out.

There are arrows on the inside that designate which way to push them out too.

Just get a watch link removal tool on ebay for like $6 bucks....

if you take it to an o-store the should change it for free.

thanks for the help, i might take this one to a watch shop and order the tool from ebay for the next time i need to resize a watch.

Those pins with the sleeves are a bitch to remove. My Omega Planet Ocean has the same sort of pins and even pin removal tools have difficulty pushing them out. It's best to take it to a jeweller who has a special punch to get them out.

No special punch needed. Any watch tool should be able to push the pin out.

i ended up doing it myself, couldnt wait to get time to take it in, i used a tiny screwdriver to push them and they came right out. took less than 5 minutes to remove 3 links and put it back together.

or, you coud cut the yellow wire....

RIGTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:o)

The yellow wire option always works...ALWAYS
