I see I can use a paperclip to remove the jubilee band from my rolex but how easy is it to put it back? Thanks for your help.

I would not use a paper clip. It can scratch pretty easily without the right tools. Not sure about the jubilee but I once took my oyster bracelet off easily but it was a real bear to put back on. I was afraid about scratching so I took it to my local AD and he put it on in about 15 mins. I do know, however, jubilees are more of a challenge for your average jewelry particularly if you're sizing it.

masking tape on the lugs.. and a pusher...even a tooth pick. will do the trick..

Or just buy a $10 springbar tool? :/

very simple. maybe wanna pratice on an old beater watch or something so that you get the hang of it, but not hard at all. Takes about 3-4 min or so.

Depends on how far away the musicians have moved over the years.

Thanks everyone for your input, that is what I figured. Its a new watch and a present for someone so I do not want to mess it up. I just wanted to take it apart to see some of the stuff I learned about online, like serial number etc. Not going to mess with it.
