Well........you can use the dremel for the ones on the endlink.

As for the bracelet connection the only thing I could see you could do is drill it out if you have enough metal there.

Sticky wicket.

I think there isnt too much material for dremel it, but i can try.

P.s. the Yuki bracelet is too expensive O.O

Great tutorial matey - it reminds of when Bonesy first started doing his Red Sub mods (God that feels like years ago now). Whatever happened to him? I used to love reading his step by steps...

It was years ago. I think he retired from watch stuff. Not logged in for a long time.

Great thread with the pictorial.
Good tips on the stem removal with 1.2mm tip and the layout/setup prep to catch the spills. I had wrecked the keyless twice in the past by being too ham fisted. And I had countless session on the floor looking for spring bars, screws and even bezel lume pips. Sometimes i am amazed I could locate them at all.

Sorry I will be the absolute class-A dickhole.
The lugholes shouldn't be chamfered. Never.

But I really liked your's, and anybody who reads a tutorial and then tells the OP what they did wrong in that tutorial, without making a tutorial of their own, is an absolute class-A dickhole.
So, let me just say, HUZZAH! HUZZAH! NCRICH!
