Title: Removing permanent end link sub 14060m
Post by: budakkacamata on August 24, 2017, 09:40:27 AM

Hi all.

I recently acquired sub 14060m but the link is somewhat longer than i expected.

So after doing some research, i know the small permanent endlink (the link between the rigid link and the clasp) can be removed and putting back the clasp directly attached to solid link.

I am looking for watchmaker who can do this. Amcorp mall any good? If we not allowed to say names, it would be great if i can get a pm/contact number of the shop. Thanks.

I am open to other possibility as well. So how else you resized 14060m to a 6inch or smaller wrist.


Thank you.

Hi

Try to switch the 12'clock link to 6 and vice versa. Then the clasp will close the other way round.

Personally, I refrain from removing the permanent link as the resales value will be affected if you flip your watch in future.

I know. But i saw the small end link can be removed and re attached if needed. And hopefully this one is for stay.
