Oh yes, that happens too often. I had a dealer do it to mine. I made them order me a new watch and did it myself. I am a firm believer that if you want something done right, do it yourself.
Sizing a bracelet is very easy, if you have the right tool.

: they be careful with it? Next time I will do
: it myself that way if I do the damage I can
: only blame me. Besides, I would have done a
: better and more careful job then the
: "jewelers" would. Has anyone ever
