How do I remove pins to size an Invicta Sea Spider model #0140

Sea Spider 1261 INVICTA Sea Spider Men 50mm Stainless Steel Gold Black dial 3600K Mechanical watch located attached link offers multiple compatible straps

Hi I love my Invicta watches also. My wife is telling me that collection is close to how many shoes she has LOL. You will need a special tool the tool has two adjustable prongs so it will fit a Rolex and any other screw on type watch. Normally they come in a set of watch tools. I would suggest eBay, you can get a kit that not only will open any back on any watch but you will get tools for removing the pins in the band. There is also a unique tool to help you put the spring pin in that holds the band to the watch. One word of caution when searching on eBay look to see where the seller is. If it is China I would find one here in the States. I hope this will help you
Have a great day.

You need to remove the push in pins. Use a small pin or dull needle that fits the holes size. Push on the pins to remove and push them back in to reconnect. They can be in fairly tight so be careful. It can also be hard to push them back in as well. They usually only go in one way, just in case, pay attention to how they are oriented when you remove the, so they go back in the same way. See image attached. Remove as many links as you need, to get the size you want.

Normally on this type of Invicta you would use a slim punch to push out the little pins at each end of the link section you want to remove, then reattach the band using one of the removed pins.

In some cases one end of a pin will be slightly wider than the other so that the pin is meant to be removed in one particular direction. If you can't tell any difference, the pin will probably come out either way. You may use a small hammer to tap the pin back in if needed but don't scratch your band.

Contact the authorized service center. There is nothing you can do, in this case. Gopakumar Gopalan Google

You should use two extremely small flat head screw drivers to remove links on Invicta polyurethane watch bands. The smaller pens on the polyurethane watch bands have a notched cap (tiny screws) on each end .You must use one screw driver to hold the pen cap (screw) steady and the other screw driver to turn the cap (screw) counter clockwise. You only have to remove one notched cap (screw). These caps (screws) are very small and you should be careful not to lose them. Once you removed the cap (screws) you can use a small screw driver or paper clip to push the pens through the links. You should repeat this til you remove the desired links.

Thank you for contacting FIxYa.<br /> I suggest you take your watch to a reputable local jeweler for sizing. Expect to pay a nominal fee (around $5) for this service. Do not attempt to size your own watch! You may damage or scratch the watch and bracelet. The liability is yours.<br /> If you still decide to do, follow instructions given here:<br /> <a href="http://www.webwatches.co.uk/how_to.htm" target="_blank">http://www.webwatches.co.uk/how_to.htm</a><br /> Best wishes.
