I bought the Doris an Omega Seamaster quartz mid last year, an old one from 2003ish but serves her perfectly as a tool watch that can take the knocks a working wedding florist gives it. The bracelet has some stretch in it and recently one of the pins slips out a mm or 2 before i spot it and put it back in. Does anyone know of a way of fixing this issue (without resorting to superglue) or someone who could fettle it ?
Thanks

I'd take it apart and give a good clean. Then I'd buy new pin and sleeves from cousinsuk.
You can flatten pin or sleeve a bit, but it's better to change.
locktite if a new pin and sleeve doesn't do the job
I think the issue is the hole in the link has worn so the pin and sleeve are no longer sung. I think I have a spare link but if memory serves it's the last non removable link that's the problem area.Quote:
