Is it the spring bar I am missing?

Hey all,

I am getting my Datejust resized tomorrow and just had a question...

When I had my Datejust sized I had a link removed which I have kept. I feel like it's missing a link/spring bar between the two smaller sections?

Do you know what it is, and is it something my AD would likely charge me for? Or would they be willing to help me out with one?

Thanks!

It's not missing anything.

When it fits in, the next link will use the screwbar that you see between the 3 sections.

Imagine repeating that pattern over and over. Those two tangs are held by the next bar in the 3 tang links.

No issue there as stated above.

Make certain whenever a bracelet is resized that you get back any and all unused links and "pins" (that is official technical term for the "bracelet screws".) It is easy to overlook getting back a pin, and then when you may need it later it is gone.

There is NOTHING missing.

It would be a screw but that is in the bracelett now or it would not be done up.

So .. Dont worry, That link is complete.
