On most watch bands there are arrows located on the inside of the band indicating in which direction the pin is to be removed. When reassembling replace the pin in the opposite direction of the arrow with the "split" portion of the pin going in last as this video shows . Also if a link does not have an arrow then that pin and link is to be considered non-adjustable.
Thank you soooo much for this video! Took me about 10 minutes and now my watch fits so much better! I used tiny little screwdrivers instead of a pushpin, and it worked just as easily. Thanks again!
Worked like a champ! I would try not to squeeze more than you have to with the pliers, so that you don't flatten the wider part of the pin that keeps it in the hole. One way is to look closely at the pin and put the pliers on the areas where you see the split, that way it won't flatten the keeper. I watched your video before trying it on my own and it helped to see what to do first. Thanks for posting,
I found this very helpful. I learned exactly what to do from this video. I am not sure why I feel I must apologize for the people making negative comments about the video. They are more to be pitied than censured.
Thank you so much for sharing this! I literally saved $120. I took 4 watches to get sized and was told it would be $30 a watch!!!! I’m so glad I found this video.
Thank you so much mate. Life saver! Spent a tenner on fixing one at a shop and still ended up a bit too big and I was thinking of ways to let my mum know that I’d have to use an other tenner 😅 But this was so simple yet effective and had it done in a matter of minutes. Thanks mate 💪
I just wanted to comment and say Thank you. With your tutorial , I was able to remove two links from my nephews watch easily without having to pay someone do it. Thumbs up for a great diy.
This is awesome, you made it so simple for me, to think I went to a watch shop to have my new watch re-size and was told they don't have the tools for my watch. I can't wait to do this and finally be able to wear my watch. Thanks Nils!
Thank you so much!! I have had a watch for 7 months and my other crappy, very lose watch finally died. I was forced to figure out how to re-size the 7 month old watch on my own - I just did it because of your video!!! Thank you SOOOO much!! It was so easy compared to what I was dreading the last 7 months and never made the time to go to a Jewler. Thank you!!!!
Saved me a ton of time and $20.00 at the mall. A friend gave me a watch for my birthday. I put it off for a while to modify the band. I used your method but couldn't find a hammer so I used a small crowbar. It was hard at first. But I used another person's suggestion with two books to create that gap. Worked like a charm.
Thank you so much for this video❤ I grew up without a father, and some things I've learned for myself (trial and error) and others I just go on RUclips. I was gifted a watch like this from my wife, but never knew how to adjust one, good to know. Thanks for sharing.
I followed this and it worked so well! The watch fits perfectly, I had to go back though because I took three links off of one side and it made it sit crooked on my wrist, make sure to take off evenly on both sides! Thank you to this man!❤
That thumbtack was exactly what I needed. I have a repair kit with all the tools, but it was impossible to get the pins out of this one particular watch. Worked like a charm!
Thank you so much, i bought a new watch online but it was too big so I was trying to give it to a watch mechanic to make it smaller and then I found your video on youtube. You saved my money
This was an outstanding video. I just can't believe all the bitching and moaning and corrections. I watch tons of video on youtube and by comparison, this one is the gold standard. Thank you for being very articulate, explaining what needs to be explained without over-explaining, offering options and having an extremely clear picture and audio.

Thanks guy, just watched your video and took a couple notches off my watch and it fits perfectly! I did this without the wood and just had my husband hold the sides while I hammered lol made a couple tiny dents in the table but overall worked well. Thanks again!
Thank you so much. I was stuck about how I was ever going to wear my new watch , which was bought to big. With your help I now can wear my watch with confidence. Thank you u tube. So simple once the process is explained.
My stainless steel wristband came with the second method tool. Thanks to your how-to video, this process was a breeze. My watch now fits perfectly. Thank you for going out of your way to make this video and share it. I really appreciate it.
thank god there is RUclips. I don't know how much I would have paid Victorinox to get something like that done, but I have finally done it as you showed. The only problem I had was putting the pin back (because I am stupid and kept putting it back in the wrong end). Now it fits me perfectly and I didn't spend a single dime
No, actually it's pretty nice. I'm no watch connoisseur but I've been wearing that Invicta watch for over a year and it's held up really well except for the chronograph, which stopped working. Maybe it just needs a new battery.
I got the little contraption from Amazon and adjusted my Stauer watch that has been sitting around my drawer for about six or eight months it finally fits great and looks great thank you so much!!!
Yous said any hammer would be sufficient. So I took your advice and now every watch I own is smashed into oblivion!! I couldn't find my sledgehammer, so I obviously had to use my jackhammer instead. now I have 23 totally destroyed, non-repairable, watches!! Well clearly this is your fault completely! How could someone do such a thing!? Huh??

Great video. I'm young and like stylish watches and will probably get a new one soon. So in case it is too big, I can easily adjust the length bc of this tutorial. GREAT VID!!!
Thank you Nils, for giving me the courage to take a hammer to a new watch. :) If you file the point of the pushpin (wasn't he a Russian writer?) flat it's a little easier. And Bluebird Toffee Hammers are perfect for this.

+pumpa kungen just use the edge of a counter top and have someone hold it down while you hammer the pin out. i couldn' hold down the push pin, hammer, and hold down the watch with just two hands. worked good.
You sir are the cat's meow. I used a push pin, a wire cheese slicer board, and the heavy handle of a butter knife. Worked like a charm. Kudos to you DIY Nils. Thank you for sharing.
This video was so helpful, thank you! I didn’t really have these tools so I used a spoon as hammer and the pin for opening my sim tray, it’s a perfect fit and it pushes the pin from the bracelet all the way through. Didn’t need pliers. Took me 5 mins
Literally done in 5m. I used 1 push pin, the end of my wooden brush to bang it out, the edge of the side of a wooden table, and my fingers to pull out the link stick thingy lol. Worked perfectly for me. Thanx !!!!
thank you so much this helped! i didn't have wood like that but if you use anything like a dresser or a desk that splits and has to flat surfaces between the crack it worked for me!
There should be holes on both sides of the link.....if you can't get the pin out by using one hole, use the hole in the other side of the link. These pins are not just a smooth piece of metal.....one end has a bit of a flare to it, so when linking back up be sure the flared end goes into hole first. This takes patience, but it's worth the effort....what's worse than a watch that flops around on your wrist!
Thank you so much, it's my 12th birthday and I got a nice watch that didn't fit me so went to you and now it's perfect, thank you once again. This deserves my like

Thanks, MC. If you still want to donate, just click the small "i" in the top right corner and then click the link that says "Support Nils Rasmusson". I think this is the direct link: ruclips.net/video/o3NfebIjLlU/видео.html&ypc_ft=T&ypc_ii=o3NfebIjLlU&ypc_it=V&feature=iv&src_vid=o3NfebIjLlU&annotation_id=video%3Af3a97171-c516-4ed4-87a7-edc469e9fce4
I get an error: Fan funding isn't available in my country -_- Once it is, I'll pay my debt back :)
No worries- thanks for trying!

Didn't know Malzahar wore watches.
Thank you so much. I successfully adjusted my watch now. You have earned a subscriber.
that gadget is freakn cool
This video was a life saver, I have tiny wrists and paying for watches to be sized is too expensive, I can now do it own my own for free
how for a geneva watch?
Thank you so much I bought a $500 watch and it was slightly to big appreciate your videos !
I just used my pocket knife as a hammer and plyers. 🤣
Thank goodness for RUclips. My boyfriend said he needs his watch resized and I told him, " I got you! " 😂 Thank you for your video
