Re: Omega link tool?

In Response To: Re: Omega link tool? ()

Hi Dan,

You might try the following if you get the uncontrollable urge to mess with
a bracelet!

I use the Frei & Borel screw type pusher to remove the bracelet pins.

To re-insert, I press the pin most of the way home against a hard surface -
my workbench, or the smooth side of a pair of small pliers. You must be exceedingly
careful not to bend a pin. I've not had a problem, but figure I may one of
these days! I finish seating the pin using the screw type pusher against the
protruding end of the pin. The pusher driven pin moves so slowly and with such control that the
pin doesn't slide off the end of the bracelet pin. If it does slide, it's not going to move far enough
to scratch the bracelet.

Best wishes,
Bob
