Folks, I have bought on ebay 2 additional links for my 7912 bracelet. It arrived in 6 separate pieces. Each link seems to constist of the larger middle piece with the sprungs, 1 top part to connect the links and a small part of which I have no idea what it is for. May someone of you know about a link or instruction on the web. Every advice is highly apprecciated.

 

This is one of the most helpful links (by Steve Waddington, and am very grateful as it saved my life) online I found.... hope this helps :

Bookmarking this for later reference!!! Thank you M

 

Great link, thx. Actually it was easy to take out the small piece in order open the bracelet. But even after 30 minutes trying I couldn't put them back together.

 

Humpty Dumpty's bracelet!

 

Yeah, I hear you!
It's delicate intense work, and you end up getting quite tense.
I would recommend you put everything down and take a break, redirect your attention fully to another distraction, and once your set to go again, I believe everything will fall into place

 

The best thing to do with these bracelets when reassembling them is. When you are sliding the retaining plate on the underside> fold the bracelet in half carefully then use a wooden cocktail stick in the gap below the link to bring one side of the link up higher, the plate should slide on a lot easier and glide straight in.
I hope that made sense.
Cheers Mick

 

Sounds like a plan, Michael and Melhadary. I will give it a try....

 

Mission accomplished. The cocktail stick made made my day. Thank you all for helping! Good night.

 

Cocktail sticks, not just for pineapple chunks, cheese and olives. ;-)
Glad you got it done.
Cheers Mick

 

Cocktail straws are also great for putting your lenses back into wire frame glasses. Lotsa McGuyver-y things can be done with bar paraphernalia.

 

Yeah, I still feel a bit like McGuyver thanks to the coctail stick, lol.
