Since our specialty here is Omega watches, I am not familiar with that Swatch model to say for sure. But a Swatch probably uses the standard method, a push-out pin in certain links of the bracelet. Sometimes there is an arrow indicating which direction to push the pins.

To ask your question to a broader audience that likely includes Swatch owners, try posting your question on the Public Forum at www.timezone.com.

Also, if you are unsure or don't want to bother, you can take the watch to any watch shop or jeweler. They can usually adjust the bracelet for you for only a couple of bucks. That's a lot cheaper than fiddling with it yourself--expecially if you slip and end up scratching your watch!
