Haven't tried, but you may need a pair of the double ended pliers that compress both ends at the same time - assuming g that there is room for the tips. As a one off job I would just take to a watchmaker. |

Thanks Roff I did try the double ended pliers to no avail and discussed it with Craig and he was at a loss. A watch maker may be the way to go. |

Old link is on the General Watch Discussion on altering a Transocean 7102 bracelet. Suspect the answer would lie here with the Vintage specialists. Anyone know?? http://m.breitlingsource.com/phpBB2/vie ... 45#p434245 |

I did it using two springbar removers but using the pointy ends (the Bergeron tool has a regular end and a pin/pointy end used for drilled lugs). I hope this makes sense. But yes it's a royal PITA. |

Dave I responded on the old thread. I used two springbar tools but the pointy ends. |

so you pull the 2 pins simultaneously towards the centre of the bracelet? |

Nothing I like more than merging multiple threads, please don't double post all you are doing is making more work for me to combine your threads. |
