- Today we will tackle sizing the SARB033 bracelet. Like other Seiko bracelets, it uses a pin and collar system, but not exactly like the others. There's a few tips and tricks to pulling your hair out! Don't lose those precious collars! Save a few bucks, do it yourself, and do it right!

Thank you for watching.
Mark saving the day as usual. Word of advice: Don't resize your bracelet over carpet! If you drop the collar on the carpet, it's GONE! And as Mark said, the pin will not stay in the bracelet without the collar.
Your service is incredible. Highly recommend Long Island Watch.
Thank you!
I helped a friend shorten his SARB033, and was pleasantly surprised when I saw the collar on the center link. That was way easier than having the collar on the outside edge. If I hadn't watched your #15 video with pins and collars, I wouldn't have had any idea what was going on. Thank you for these videos.
Indeed; thanks for watching and commenting.
This video taught me how to change my bracelet size! Extremely helpful. If like me, you don’t have the proper tools at home - patience, needle nose pliers, and a sewing machine needle do the trick.
OMG... Bro you completly read my mind. Just bought the 033 and I wasn't really sure what to do lol. Talk about perfect timing
Perfect!!!
Same 🤣😅
I watched a lot of videos on how to adjust my Seiko Prospex Solar watch band, but your video is the only one that actually worked. Thanks a lot for the helpful video.
I got a deck monster from my coworker. As soon as I put it on the watch fell off my wrist. I packed the watch away and I was able to fix it today. Happy I got it going. Watched the video after I did the repair and confirmed I did it correctly.
Finally a tutorial that's not full of bs and gets straight to the point.
Oh geez I'm so glad I found this, thank you for posting it! For future viewer reference; the SBDC047 Transocean also uses this pin and collar set.
Thanks again Long Island Watch for posting these helpful videos!
Super helpful. Thanks! I was losing my mind over why the pins kept falling out!
You have the best vid on how to size pin and collars on the turtles. When I got my SRP775 I was worried that I’d have to take it somewhere to get it sized, but after watching it I had it done in no time. Thanks for all the help.
Great, thank you!
Long Island Watch hey Mark, I recently bought a SRPB9. I knew that it was pin and collars but when sizing the bracelet I was surprised the system was a tad different. The collars where placed in the middle part of the link, and not on the end like on my turtle. And the pins were symmetrical. They were easier to deal with, just thought all pins and collars by Seiko would work same way.
This took me forever to realize on my Oceanus T200. I was sure there was a collar but didn’t know where it was until it fell out. Thank goodness I had a towel to catch it. Then i spent ten minutes putting the collar into the wrong side of the link, then dawned on me to check the hole sizes. This video is so helpful. You do great work, Marc
Wow, that collar is a lot smaller than it looks in the vid. Didn't realize how magnified it was. Thanks, Marc!
I had no idea where the collar on my desk came from and immediately went to watch your video. Thanks a lot!
Love your videos, they are always always so informative. Save me a lot of frustration!
NEVER have my fingers felt so fat! I am detail oriented, not clumsy and I'm generally patient with fiddly jobs but this was one of the hardest things I have done. Total pain in the axx. Not only that, but I lost the collar no less than three times on a worn hessian rug. Cannot believe I was able to find the thing each time. Anyway, your video was a godsend. Thanks. Phew!
Over the last 4 years, I think I've seen this video at least a billion times and will probably see it another 20 billion times in the next couple decades cause of this damn pin and collar system
just wanted to say thank you you saved me so much time and educated me i enjoy yours and the urban gentry's channel such great info
Just went through EXACTLY what you described at the beginning of the video with my SARB033 (purchased from you last week). I was losing my mind trying to get the collar into the outside of the bracelet. Finally tried the inside and it dropped right in. Had to laugh when this video popped up in my feed. I already adore the watch. It's going to be a mess in a year because I'm going to wear the crap out of it. Don't care... I'm going to enjoy it.
Reeeally wish I would have watched this first... All the pins fell out of my watch while I was running down the stairs.
Little Drummin Boy 🤣🤣🤣
Life saver! Thanks for this.
I learned many new words, and lost a year of my life to stress, trying to get a Sarb033 collar back in the hole in the outside part of the link!!!
Marc, this is a terrific video. I just got a SARB033 and sized it in about 10 minutes thanks to your instruction. (You sold out as I was ordering from Long Island Watch.) Sizing would have been a disaster without your help. Thank you, my friend.
Very valuable content for all SARB033 owners who want to adjust their bracelet themself.
I wish you had made this video a month or two earlier! Luckily, I was able to figure this out based on your previous Seiko sizing videos (where I learned what a collar was), and that I got lucky noticing the collar all out. So thanks again for your videos!
Glad you still found it useful, thanks!
Thank you Marc! That is the right design for a pin and collar bracelet, in my humble opinion. I believe that’s the design my Omega SMP had. Collars on the outside of the bracelet are unnecessarily difficult.
Marc, great and useful information here. While I do not have the watches you referenced in the video, I did recently purchase a Rado Golden Seahorse that has a beads of rice bracelet that I needed to resize. While I have resized numerous watch bands for myself and other over the years and have an accumulation of numerous tools for that task, I was struggling trying to remove the pins on the bracelet. I knew the bracelet was a tube and pin type, and I had never resized one of those types before. I watched numerous You Tube videos that all noted how the tubes were easy to lose, so I approached with caution. Using my existing tools I was able to get one pin about one quarter of the way out but it was very tight and refused to pull out even with a few gentle tugs with my pliers. On this bracelet there are no arrows to indicate which direction the pins should be removed, so I thought perhaps I was trying to remove the pin in he wrong direction. I put a pause on my efforts and tried to gather more information, but I could not find anything on a tube and pin resize on a beads of rice bracelet. You should also note that most of the videos that focused on this resize would show a close up of the tube on one side of the bracelet near on edge. Under magnification, I did not see that on my watch, so I was puzzled. Yesterday, I watched you video and the light bulb went off when you noted that the tubes in your Seiko watches were of the internal type. I also saw that you used a pin pusher that was much longer than the ones I had, so I ordered a few after measuring the diameter I needed (0.80mm). This morning I tackled the resize and with he new pin pushers, the pin came right out, but no tube. I realized I needed to push out the tubes separately from the middle links. The beads of rice bracelet makes this task very cumbersome and you certainly need patience, but I took my time and was able to remove the two links to fit my wrist. Your tips and comments were invaluable in both giving me the confidence, using the right tools and understanding what I need to do, so I waned to say, THANK YOU, and let your other viewers know that you do a great job in your watch and learn videos. Best regards.
Bro you saved me with my sarx075. Hearing that you made the same mistake also let me go a bit easier on myself ❤
Thank you for this video. You really saved my ass because I didn't notice the collars when I removed the pins from my watch. I actually found the collars on my floor after watching this video 😄
just got my SBBN031 and needed to remove 1 link from each side. I could not have possibly done this without your video! Thanks for doing these.
Cheers mate the battle finally has been won
Mark is simply a legend. Sizing my Seiko SBDY029 Samurai - watched the first vid - thought that doesn't seem right. Watched the 2nd vid about pin and collar - still struggled. Watched this and it was spot on. Thanks heaps.
I wish I saw this video before I spent 1.5 hrs with my Seiko Prospex Solar Chrono Diver SSC675p1 last night. I saw your other video on pin and collar bracelettes and couldnt figure out why the pin wouldnt come out. You definitely need the small longer punch to disengage the pin from the internal collar, as the shorter ones on the vice-type pin-pushers don't go in far enough. Once I got one out and finally saw how it worked, it was a little easier. Great video.
Thank you Mark. This video helped me resize my new Sarb033. It gave me the confidence to do it myself. So easy once you know what to expect. Thanks again.
I can't thank you enough, Marc, for this video. I've been avoiding sizing pin/collar bracelets for years. I can't tell you how many collars I've lost during sizing that ,seem to disappear into thin air. Instead, I've bought straps, Strapcode bracelets or had a professional do the sizing. Thanks to you and this video, I now have several OEM bracelets installed and sized; and others to come, saving me $$$ in the long run.
You are welcome!
Excellent video! Caught it just in time, have a couple of Seiko's I need to size. Thanks for taking the time to post and share.
Best Seiko link adjustment video out there, thank you!
Thanks Mark, wonderful video
Great video! I watched your previous video and was surprised when I received my Orient Triton and it was this style. Based on the information I had already learned, and a happy accident where the collar fell out on my table (not lost), I was able to size the bracelet without a problem. Thanks again, Marc!
Great to hear, you are welcome!
This is excellent mark! Thanks for this video. I guess I’ve been spoiled none of my other watches have this setup.
Extremely helpful. Thank you.
Thanks Marc, I’m expecting the SARB035 today so this video definitely helped.
Hey thank you so much! I finally got it! Never new what those small tunnels were! Mil Gracias and Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you for this video! I didn't even know about the collars and had drop them. Luckily I found them on my carpet near where I took it apart. BE CAREFUL GUYS, these are really hard to replace it seems
Thank you so much! Saved me a headache and a trip to the jeweler's.
Thank you so much for this video, I was trying to figure out a spb077 bracelet for hours. This is the only video I could find to figure out Seiko center link colars. Thanks for the wonderful content. 👍
Great video, really helped me!
Thanks for the helpful vid. Just got the samurai srpc93 and was clueless when I saw the small collar laying on the my table after freeing the link. So glad I found Ur vid. Big ups! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Similar system on the Alpinist watches. I (stupidly) did the bracelet change on my couch, expected cotter pins instead of pins and collars, and lost two of the collars. By the grace of the watch gods, I found the collars! Should have watched this video before... I think it makes sense to install the pin the same way it was removed, that force you apply would drive the collar into the middle link instead of the side...if that makes sense.
Marc; great video! With your clear and concise instructions, you taught me how to resize my own bracelets. No more going to the mall kiosk! LMAO!! Thanks so much for these incredible "Watch and Learn" videos. They are so useful!! Cheers, bro!
Thank you Mark. You put a lot of dedication in your work.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
The pin and collar style was confusing. Thanks for clearing it up for me!
Save my life with this video
If I'm correct, reassembling in the correct reverse order is somewhat necessary. As the pin goes through the collar the force of it going through would actually tighten the collar around the pin due to the tapered center link hole.
Nice tutorial, thanks.
Good info. I was just going to take mine in to get done . I still will but this is good to know . Thanks .
I really wish I had not taken your advice on removing the spring bar at the clasp. I have tried and tried but am still
unable to replace it. For now I have a spare bracelet for a SARB that's currently on leather. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. Great help.☺️👍
Mark, God bless you.
Thanks Marc for these videos! I was on the edge of collapsing when adjusting my Seiko Samurai, because I assumed that the collar goes in from the side and saw immediately that it is not possible in any way. After watching the video everything went smoothly and now I couldn’t be happier with my Seiko! 👍🏻😊
Thanks Mark, you just saved me $20 (minus what it cost me for the tools!). But it was satisfying to be able to size it myself. Things seem to be countersunk well and I have the micro adjustment in the middle so if I'm off a little I can adjust. Kind of a pain though, I can see why people are going to screw. I just sized a Deep Blue and that was another new type. It had screw heads on both sides with one side a pin and the other a tiny screw with a sort of spring. I had to use a screwdriver on both sides to open it and close it. Not sure what that is called. Again thanks!
Fantastic explanation! Thank you very much
Thank you so much for saving my day 😅
Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou! I wasn't the least bit frustrated before I found this video. Nosiree ....
Good video Marc!
I got one of those from you not long ago and, as my first encounter with pin and collar bracelets, I did have a wtf moment when I removed my first link. This should make it quite easy for new buyers. :)
Thanks!
Excellent video as always.Thanks.
Thank you, this video made it easy for my first time.
So that's what that little piece was that fell out. Good thing I kept it. Reinstalled. Tnanks!
Thanks again! Always informative ! Keep these videos coming !
You are welcome!
Thanks for the video. This is just what I needed.
Really helpful thanks!
Thanks...this pin and collar system also needs to be revisited by Seiko..its a frickin nightmare!
Thanks for the help!
Had a link put in at back in at jcpenney now the pins are backing out, thanks now we know why
Very useful. Thanks.
Wow thats why my watch kept fallin 😂 thx mate!
Thank you kind sir
You’ve saved me hours of swearing 🤣
I went through the hours of swearing and it was rough
I just bought an Spb143
and had no experience at all with these collars being in the middle link.
It took me 3 hours (and this video) to realize what was going on
I just couldnt get the collar in the outer link... (what I am used to).
Yay pin and collar!! So glad the Turtle and Sammie fit me perfectly out of the box! Im sure you know this, however strapcode is selling a bracelet for the SARBs now
Where did you find the bracelets for the SARBs?
Saw it on strapcodes page last night.
We will have it soon!
One thing I would add, on my Sarbs (I have the 33 and the 35) The 'balancing' of the links is important, because the clasp is so small, I found that although the number of links I removed on mine were the same, because the balance on each side of the bracelet was reversed between the two watches, and one wears nicer than the other, keep meaning to put them both the same. I found this bracelet a heck of a lot easier than the turtle/sumo with the collarts being internal in the centre link.
The best OE seiko bracelet though I think.....The only ones I havn't gone aftermarket with.
Thanks for commenting.
Same here. And part of the delight of my Long Island Watch SARB033 experience is that it fit me right out of the box.
Thanks for tutorial.. done
Perfect Mark, just what I needed, thanks
Thanks Marc.
Hi mark i own the 035 and love it , i also like the bracelet apart from gaping buckle and worst of all just the two adjust ment holes. I like my bracelet s tight but cannot adjust it correctly , i either cant close it at all or it slips over my wrist knuckle which i hate , i guess ill have to invest in an after market. Take care.
Thanks, Mark
Thanks Marc. If you end up getting the new Strapcode/Miltat oyster bracelet for the SARB033, would love to get a closer look at it.
We will, and I'll do a video on it.
Many… many thanks!!! 🤝
Great demo/explaination Video!!
Thanks.!!👍
You are welcome!
Thanks, this was a lot of help
Aerospace Mark you legend
Great vid, thanks so much :) super helpful.....PS, is that actually a Breitling Navitimer? For some reason I thought it was a Breitling Aerospace titanium.
i found you can push the pin back in the same side you pushed it out. even easier
Super helpful, ty :)
I knew those little pins were important! Guy at the jewelry shop didn’t believe me when I said they needed to be in. He called them “end caps” that made the watch look flush. Do it yourself and save the hassle!
you just saved me close to $100 with this video, thanks haha
Thanks for this 🐨
Great video, this really helped.
Saved my broke ass $20, bless ya soul!
I will pay the $20 just to get it done . Lol
Hey Long Island Watch, I just got Citizens signature Classic and the bracelet doesnt have any arrows on the inside but it looks like it has pins in it. Is it normal for a bracelet to not have any arrows on it?
I've got a Citizen CC3026-51H with a two tone 4-3 configuration bracelet, man it's a nightmare getting those collars back in, if you happen to have the above-mentioned model in stock can you show me how to tackle it.
Thanks
I lost a couple of pins and collars for my seiko SARB033 links. Could you advise me where to buy just the pins and collars?
