Tudor Black bay help needed

[simonm]

i just got the new V3 from intime and i think the watch over all looks great. but i needed to take of a couple of links on the bracelet because i have pretty small wrist.
the problem is just that i cant unscrew the "pin screws" it is possible to unscrew them just a little but then they get stucked, this goes fro all of them.

does anyone know this problem? and maybe got a solution for it?

it is really sad not to be able o wear this nice watch.

Interesting you should say that as someone couldn't get theirs out last week (there's a thread on here about it and they ended up breaking the bracelet. (I cannot vouch for it as i have a v2 and i have mine on leather) but it sounds like there may be a bigger issue if the v3's are having the bracelet issues...~Maybe someone else can chip in.
Personally i would try some penetrating oil on there first and leave for a few hours for it to soak in and try it again.
But i think this is worrying as you are the second person to say that they could not undo the links.
Good Luck

I just had the same problem with mine. Used a little oil and also an expensive screwdriver that would not bend under the pressure. Eventually it popped free, it felt like a heavy duty thread locker had broken free.

Yeah after a couple of hours in oil mine is good to go aswell. thanks again to all of you!

Glad you all got it sorted.

WD 40 - helps me from this situations.

Same issue on mine. Lubed with some WD40 (the best solution in "sticky" situations like these) and popped them out 1 by 1 after that.
