Service Issue
Quite annoyingly I’ve just had my C7mk2 back from a battery change at CW towers. Work done quickly and I was pleased until I realised they’d put the bracelet on the wrong way. Most normal mortals can change bracelets ok, but I find changing non-QR bracelets a complete faff which ends in high blood pressure, pain and life changing injury. I’ll set to correcting the bracelet in due course but it’s an aggravation I could do without……

Re: Service Issue
Once when I put a non-QR bracelet on backwards, rather than try to remove it and reattach it correctly, I removed pins from the links on either side of the clasp and reversed the clasp accordingly (accounting for the preferred number of links on the appropriate sides of the clasp). It was actually far easier than trying to get the damned thing off then on again!

Re: Service Issue
^^^^ A great work around, especially as the C7 Mk2 bracelets are notoriously difficult to get fitted.

Re: Service Issue
Thanks and thanks again JKB, what a great idea! I'll follow that approach.jkbarnes wrote: ↑Mon Aug 02, 2021 11:54 pm Once when I put a non-QR bracelet on backwards, rather than try to remove it and reattach it correctly, I removed pins from the links on either side of the clasp and reversed the clasp accordingly (accounting for the preferred number of links on the appropriate sides of the clasp).
