Try punching where the next pin should be. Each link has three pins. Has to be set then ground flush? Never seen that before either…

How punching? Can’t be serious. It needs to be pulled away. Probably there is no way without damaging it.

Did you punch out the brushed pins? Are there no screws on the other side of the bracelet?

I punched out the cotter pins but there is a second pin on each link. No screws on the other side. I guess they have to be pulled apart, but I feel like that’ll damage them.

silence, then a swift ban lands.

Should've scrolled first, friend.
