Tudor end links

Hi gang, been trying to remove my end links on my Tudor Chrono without much success. Just want to take off sharkskin strap and try something different, have had them off once before using the same "tweezer" tool I use to remove my Rolex bracelets but I'll be darn I cannot get these suckers off, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

They can be tricky. I try to apply a bit of pressure on the end link from the top while compressing on one end of the spring bar to get it out of the lug, then compress the other side. After some practice it does get easier.
Good luck,
dP

Glad that helped. Was thinking of you this morning as I was removing the SEL's from mine to re-install the Tudor jubilee.
