    hi
    Here is a stupid question but I don't want to risk breaking something. Is there anyway to remove a link on a vintage omega time computer 1? I have spent ages looking a the bracelet?
    Thanks

    Usually there are very thick and short spring bars inside bracelet links. Just push them open and remove links. Should be very easy to do, as long as those spring bars are still working.

    That's a very tapered bracelet that doesn't look like it was designed to have links removed.

    Looking at pic 3 of 6 you may have one or two removable links left. These are a prick to remove as you have to get one end out of the pin hole then try to get the other one out.

    Yup, pic3 shows the small removable links which are between the bracelet links.
    A sharp screwdriver will ease the spring bars out, one end at a time for each inner link.
    Just s bit fiddly.

    Should make it easier. I highly suggest doing it a large clear bag as they might jump out as they are spring loaded.
