In Response To: you are on the right track ()

What timing! I have a SMP with a speedy bracelet. I'm waiting my Hirsch to arrive to swap out the bracelet.

Is it as hard to swap out the speedy bracelet? Will I need a special tool?

: Use the fork to compress the first end and
: apply pressure with the fingers of the hand
: holding the watch to the band so as to keep
: the pin from expanding back into the lug.
: Maintain that pressure while switching the
: fork to the other end of the pin and repeat
: the process there. The Omega ends are much
: tighter fitting than many others. The tool
: from Otto Frei is highly recommended.
