Removing presidential permanent link
Hi, just bought as a gift a gold Ladies President 69178 and even after removing all the links, the bracelet is still too big. Is my only solution to break off 1-2 permanent links and if the answer is yes, does anyone have a tutorial or video on how that’s done. I was only able to find oyster bracket removals, so not sure what to do with president band. Thanks in advance.

You may want to contact a jeweler. Try Rolliworks - they have serviced my band and I would highly recommend. Not sure this is something you should try yourself.

Just took it to a friend of mine, local jeweler. He was able to remove in about 10 minutes without any damage so the links are reusable. Basically used a a tiny blade to cut the pin and then slide the link to the side. Will take a picture if anyone wants to see but was super clean and easy.
