Re: Best way to fasten Seamaster clasp?

: bad way to do it.

That OUGHT to be the best way to do it. You are pushing the locking clips out of the way if the incoming locking pin. The pin slides in and when you release the buttons, the clips slide in and lock the pin. That should reduce the wear on the both clips and the locking pin.

Did your friend give a reason why they thought that was a bad method?
