This may seem simple to do but it is literally a ***** of a task. Best to where amplifying glasses and use a ball point pen, not a pin or pencil. Push one side of the pin in while keeping a slight outward pressure on the band. When it releases be care full not to let it fly off into the void(which they can) and then move to where you need the band to be and reinstall using a single edge razor blade. Just carefully align the opposite side (assuming youve alredy put one end in)place the razor blade on center and slide the remaining pin into the hole area pull the blade out slowly and listen for it to click into place.

Can't adjust the wrist band on citizec C651

Look where the band connects to the fold-over clasp. There are several holes on the clasp. Use a plastic headed thumbtack or some other small pointed object to push the pin in and move to desired hole to fit your wrist.
If the longest adjustment is still not big enough you will need to add a link to the band. You can contact Citizen Watch at 800-321-1023 they will send you 3 links at no charge.

Taking off a link from a citizen eco drive watch band

mcdevito75 here, Best Bet, look for a small watch repair shop in your area, You"d need a tool to remove that link, by the time you get the tool, the time to remove the link, is about the same cost of haveing a shop do the job.

How do I adjust the band

If it has a clip-style wrist attatchment, you may slightly adjust the pins a couple of inches with a small pin to remove thte sppring and re-insert in another hole. I recommend tweezers and a clean work surface. The spring MAY fly, so ask someone to hold their hands over the area you are working on. If you need more adjustment, go to a jeweler to have links removed /added.

Adjust ladies citizen watch metal link band

If it is a metal link band, you can remove a few segments. Segments are connected by split pens. You should see a thinner end and a bigger end; or an arrow on the inside shows where the thinner end should be. Push the thinner end firmly with a pin or something until the big end pops out the opposite side.Use pliers to remove the pin.

Watchband is one segment too long

You need the a watch link remover tool. This can be purchased online or a jeweler can do it for you. I would take the watch to where you purchased it and they should do it for free.

Link removal of stainless steel watch band

Actually, this seems to be the big end of the split pen. Take a pin and push into the opposite hole ontil the big end pops out, then use pliers to pull it out. It should be easy to put it back. There should be an arrow on the inside of the band to show where to push.
