Well, I checked with UPS, and the shipping should be around $25 each way, and then according to Omega, the pin is $6, and they have a minimum labor charge of $30. So, it'll be cheaper I guess to order a new clasp. Unless I'd be able to just buy that particular part of the clasp. Also, what tools should I purchase to replace the strap and clasp? Thanks!
: Why do you assume it will be ghastly expensive?
: A small piece like that should be a very
: basic repair.
: Also remember, you can just send the bracelet
: for repair. Put the watch on a strap and
: continue to use it while the bracelet is
: fixed.
: No. Looks like it is a piece that needs to have
: the end fused to lock it in.
: Yes. And a local jeweler should be willing to
: change straps for you for almost if not
: completely free.
