VERY Uneven SELS

You may be able to insert a wedge under the bracelet flange to both remove any play and lower the SEL height. This is an easy mod. You could even get away without gluing it in although it would be much more of a challenge to install the bracelet. Once locked in, it should stay put. This is an easily reversible mod, you can dry fit it first to see if it would help. You can't even see it once the bracelet in on.

Like this:

I started by cutting and shaping 2 pieces of 22 guage (.645mm) 316L wire. It's strong and retains its shape. I glued it to the notch in the case where the bottom SEL flange would normally sit.

The link separator tool is the best tool I have bought recently, couldn't stand those flush SELs anymore.

Working on SELs is a breeze and results are great.
Shoot me a pm if you want to send in your SELs and I can separate and ship them back (you cover shipping cost of course). Putting it back is super easy and the process leaves no marks. A drop of thread locker and a vise to push it back. (Or you can order replacement links from eBay if you do t want to use the old once)

damnn $450 is steep but wow that looks so good. What Bothers me most is that the NOOB V7 SELs were great but I do like the ARF bracelet more.


First of all thank you for offering to help..

Where are you located?

Damn it! I feel like I have ordered a premium watch and got gshock in the mail!
The guy wanted $300 for it when he asked me if I want to buy. A week later I told him that I will, and he said it was for his old one and that he can order me a new one and charged more.. I hope customs catch him next time he is passing through the customs with the gens he is bringing illegally.

I could buy the jubilee seperator also at that price point!!
KJ2020Vvvlllooo So thanks guys..not that I feel like an idiot now, I have to get the jubilee separator now from aliexpress!!!! I do Appriciate the share mate but not my wallet. :)
