Wear it home after.
Silly question but just curious on how would you do it (assuming you didn't size it on purchase).
1. Don't wear a watch, bring the new watch to the shop in the box.
2. Don't wear a watch, bring the new watch to the shop in your pocket.
3. Wear a watch, bring new watch to the shop in a box so you can place your current one in the box and wear the new one.
4. Wear a watch, bring new watch to the shop in your pocket. Place current watch in pocket when you leave.
It's my first time resizing a 2nd watch (I know!) and I'm thinking of '3'.
Obviously options above are not exhaustive...

I size it myself.
You cannot be serious.
If it’s just a screw in single side link I would do it myself at home. Bergeon screw driver set and done. I find some staff in AD’s can be very ham fisted and scratch watches. I am in dispute with an AD for butchering the end links (upper side) of my 58 when changing the bracelet.

What on earth
Can I suggest one of these?
Nicerio portable single watch, travel case with zipper and soft felted interior for holding watches and smart watches https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B078JTTQ..._-4pADb46XBTAX

Panerai 1.6mm screwdriver for Oysters
Decent set of hex scrwdriver for Blancpain
The push pin vice thingy for horrid pins
And a set of bergeon screwdrivers for everything else.
How do you pick out your socks in the morning?
Just wear what the wife leaves out next to the rest of the clothes/shoes for that day.
It's just a matter of time...
my valet usually sorts out things like that.
When I recruited my butler, I explicitly made sure that his wrist size was identical to mine. So I merely dispatch him off to the relevant AD on my behalf.
I just eat pies or lick raw chicken until the matter resolves itself.
Cheers..

How do you choose the shop?
Does the pocket have to have a zip on it? Trousers or jacket pocket?
Good idea actually, might learn how to at some point.
With a cheap few dollars chinese tool...ordered with aliexpress. Easy to size (especially after loosing virginity) and dont need to go anywhere

If screws I'd back myself to make less of a mess than the dealer. If hateful Omega pin/collar things remove bracelet and replace with Isofrane strap ...
Resize all bracelets myself. Only have one person to blame then...
On purchase or do it myself. I am a complete novice and I have done several successfully.
The more I learn and do myself the more interesting and enjoyable I find it. I have done several battery changes and recently regulated my first watch.
Go for it.
Great franchise idea, thanks!
