Determining bracelet length
Place the watch with the bracelet
open around your wrist and esti-
mate the number of surplus brace-
let links that you can now remove
from the bracelet (as described
above). If you need to shorten the
bracelet by several links, you
should remove the same number of
links from each half of the bracelet,
if possible, to ensure that the clasp
can be worn more or less at the
centre of the wrist.
To enable you to adapt the bracelet
as accurately as possible to the
size of your wrist, we have included
an extra-long bracelet link in the
clasp. Your bracelet is shortened
by an intermediate amount by
omitting this bracelet link, and finer
adjustment to the length of the
bracelet can be made in this way.
Keep the surplus links and the
separating tools safely for use in
subsequent adjustments.
Attaching the bracelet
Attach the component parts of the
bracelet link to the connection
point, and push the pivot pin into
the bracelet from the side.
Using the special tool provided,
now press the securing pin down-
wards and, at the same time,
slide the pivot pin back into the
bracelet until it lies flush.
The securing pin must be brought
up flush with the upper edge of
the securing link. Please be sure to
check the correct seating of the
pivot pin.
