·Yeah- it’s the same JBC used on the zodiacs with wider endlinks and the H clasp.

Oh man can you source one for me? I don't need the H clasp. I know you have your ear to the tracks when it comes to cool stuff.

·I did a bit more work on these end links and fit them with super thin spring bars. 1.2mm to be exact. Man, they are thin! Please hold….

·That will certainly work for now until you round up head links that you prefer.

Yes, these will get me by for a bit. Next thing I need to learn how to do is remove this clasp pin so I can add a link to the short end of the bracelet. Can I assume it’s some sort of 2-piece pin?

·I'd be tempted to open up the center links to add a spare link than to man-handle the clasp pin out and in again. Less chance of gnarling things up.

looks more like a common old smooth pin pressed in.

i hear you, but the problem is that the clasp is so off center and one side of the bracelet has no removable links so I want to add a link to that side to balance it out. Ideally I would add a link or two to the shorter side (right). Take a look.

·I get it. That's why I suggested you simply pry open the two folded links to add an extra link rather than monkey around with the pressed in pin.

·Clasp pins are frequently tapered so they come out kind of easily one way and not so much the other way. Merits close examination.
