Let me see if I've got this correct...you 'pinned' a link to a tool set but couldn't be 'arsed' to use a tool set? Given this example...you're NOT gonna be my 'techguide' if this is how 'half assed' you 'guide' people. 5 yrs this video has existed, still online, still availible...still 'representing' YOU! And you're still 'active' on KZfaq (you added 'pinned links' within the last year, so its not like you abandoned your account). Might be time to consider removing the video, REDOing it and representing yourself much BETTER. At least, if you want any hope of being someone's 'techguide'. After all, I wouldn't follow ANYONE that called themselves a 'guide' but only 'guided' me INTO the wilderness, but NOT back out of it!!!!!!!!!!!! This all might sound like nit picking...but I'm NOT the only one to make these observations. Great idea for a video, but INCOMPLETE; and the exclusions/errors UNDO the purpose, IMHO. IF YOU READ BEYOND THIS POINT, NO WHINING ABOUT A 'RANT'!!!!!!! You made your choice. There are SO many errors in this video and exclusions. 1. Common (or flat head) jeweler's screwdriver (or precision screwdriver) NOT 'flat phillips screwdriver'. Phillips is a type of screwdriver HEAD, it is NOT the name of a group of drivers (unless Phillips makes them, but even then they're not called 'phillips screwdrivers'. IE Common (flat head), Cross (Phillips), Square (Roberson), Hex (Allen), Star (Torx). But they're all screwdrivers...a Phillips head screwdriver isn't reffered to as a 'Phillips Phillips screwdriver' 2. You're using a forcep (also known as a type of hemostat) not a pair of needle nose pliers (but you COULD use needle nose pliers). 3. There are FOUR arrows in the section of links you showed (alreadry removed from the band)(not that this really matters, had it been the ONLY error...but it speaks to the sheer number of errors) 4. 'Walking' the FLAT head jewelers driver, as you did, can scratch the links (where as, had you USED the 'tool kit' you linked to, you would have 'driven' the pin out without marking the links. 5. You failed to reattached the links so the band is wearable. By this video, one is left with a band that is still in PARTS and can't be worn. "I'm going to show you how to easily change a tire on your car....by ONLY showing you how to take the tire OFF, you'll have to work out putting it back on, yourself." (you failed to show how to reattach ANYTHING, properly...you didn't even show to reattach the LINKS back together and REATTACHING is just as important) 6. This video is not about 'how to adjust' a watch braclet, its about how to ONLY remove a link. You didn't even mention the 'micro-adjustment' holes of the clasp (that may allow a user to NOT even have to take a link out to start with).

My Seiko watch came in the mail today, and I couldn't figure it out. I googled for help and your videos popped up. I watched them both; the second was the most useful. Thanks to you I was able to take out some links and was able to wear my watch tonight rather than take it to a store and pay for adjustment tomorrow.

Finally! I have been searching forever for a video like this recorded on a DSLR. All the others just didn’t work for me but because THIS ONE was recorded on such a specific type of camera (DSLR), I was able to understand and Resize my watch band.

Great work! Two tricks to share after doing this the first time... (1) A simple fingernail clipper can pull the pin out with much less exposed pin than needle-nose pliers. (2) If replacing an existing watch, count the number of "arrow" links to know how many to remove from the new watch (I had a "duh" moment when I was done an realized this).

Watched your video three times to make sure I had everything, then removed 1 link from my new Seiko Men's SKS421, and it all worked just as you demonstrated in your video. Had a heart-stopping moment when the hinge pin popped out of the hinge and launched into the air like a rocket ... but I was able to find it on the floor, and after that I was more careful with it. Other than that, no dramas. Thanks for the video -- it saved me $10 or more at the jeweler's, and now my watch fits perfectly.

I went to the shop and adjust my watch yesterday, but when I wear it today, I realized that my Seiko 5 band is one chain big and the watch slide up and down my wrist. So, when i got home, I tried to go to the shop but the shop is already closed. I have to wait till tomorrow to wear my watch again but I really don't want to. So, when searching through the internet I found this video. I watch the video and took out the extra chain by myself. Now, I can wear my brand new Seiko 5 tomorrow to school and I now know how to adjust the band myself. Thanks man.
