I got mugged today and broke my tc v6 :(

[ooarr]

I've messaged tc about ordering a new clasp as its now broken, tried to attach pictures but this bloody Lumia app won't let me do anything! had a bad day and would love some suggestions on how I can possibly fix without changing the entire clasp, im not the best with watch terminology but its like a small rivit? And spacer on the one side of the small part(the last bit you close) of the clasp? (wow that was a poor description!) I've bent it back straight but have lost the spacer and thing that holds it in, sorry again for lack of decent description and pictures!
Rwi your the best!
Much love

Download tapatalk app on your phone to share images I really don't understand what you mean :rofl:

Pictures would be helpful but you may just try to buy a new bracelet.

Tell us about the mugging. Is that how the watch broke?

Sounds like you need a new clasp if you've lost parts from it. TC sells an entire bracelet for $50ish.

Yikes. Let me be the first to say - screw the watch. Are you OK? What the hell happened and is the other person in rougher shape than you, I hope? :shooting:

That's awful. Hang in there, brother.

 

[cybee]

First let me say that I hope you are alright but it did remind me of this thread.

I'm just gonna get a new one directly from tc, im okay heads a bit mangled as I got stamped on the floor, but I assume we got off pretty even, more concerned about my watch to be honest! Couple parocetamol and back to work this morning, thanks everyone

If you had an Invicta on maybe you wouldn't have been mugged!

 

[ooarr]

I keep my watch under my sleeve when out alone, it was my phone he was after but during the scuffle I got snagged on his clothing, and the clasp broke, nevermind ey, ill sell some stuff and buy a new clasp or possibly get a gen clasp? Depending on price!

 

[revhrd]

Get a NATO strap

If you had an Invicta on maybe you wouldn't have been mugged!

..or maybe he would have ..

I've bent it back straight but are missing a small end pin and washer, is there any way anyone knows how I can obtain the parts missing and fix myself as funds are literally none existent

 

[flyr]

These are most likely the wrong size but this is kind of what you need. You will have to figure out the size you need.
I think once you know the size you should be able to ebay them.

[Ciccio_started_it]

You were stomped on the floor and you're more concerned about the watch?! Dude, how big was the mugger, you must be one tough SOB

 

[trailboss99]

It's called a pressure pin which is a hollow tube with a rivet in each end. Any watchmaker will have a selection of them. The size you need is the measurement across the clasp without the catch included. When you knock the rivet in do it in stages and test the catch as you don't want it too tight. Not sure why there was a washer under there but you should be able to get away without it.

Seriously this mate, you had your head stomped on, worry about that first! Have you seen the doctor?

 

[ooarr]

Thank you flyr!



Cheap shark mesh strap for a while until I can sort something out, wounds heal my watch won't! Haha

 

[egroegart]

That's why I love our concela carry laws. I probably wouldn't have used it because that guy would have been beaten to a pulp but I know my piece is always on my side if I need it.

Hope you're feeling better and I agree. You definitely should see a doctor. Even the slighted hit to the head can cause serious internal injury. But just to be safe its a good idea

 

[al358]

Yikes, please get yourself checked out and I hope you feel better!

Be grateful. Someways south of me they shoot, THEN take your belongings.
