Resizing tool for 5711?
When I got my 5711 I had it resized twice - After the 3rd link was taken out it felt too small, so I decided to get a 1.5 link. It took a while before I got it, and I did not wear the watch until I did. Ironically the day I went to get the 1.5 link I wore the watch (with all standard links) and it felt really comfortable. The watchmaker recommended I'd get the 1.5 link anyway... Now I am starting to think I don't need the 1.5 link anymore as it feels just a tad too big... (I also lost some weight btw)
Anyway, don't feel like having to go back to the service center every time, so was wondering if anyone can recommend a tool that allows me to change out links myself,,,
Cheers!

It's a screw driver

I did almost the same thing. I put in a 1.5 link and then decided it was too tight. I went to the jeweler and he changed it right in front of me. He simply used a jeweler's screw driver. He did mention that tightening them was a bit tricky and I should ch...
