Help sizing TT folded jubilee

Hi
Do I really need to cut of in order to size this bracelet? Not sure of the correct referens nr.
And if I cut any links, how do I reattach them? :)

I suggest taking it to a reputable jeweler.

Thank you for your suggestion

But anyone else have any guesses? Seems kind of wrong as its folded but no links to fold even if one were to cut any links out...

Are you able to tap out the center of the fold on each link?

Also if you look at my bracelet there are no cuts on the inside of the links as for the ss jubilee or the oyster in the thread. The pins looks to be welded but it might just look that way cuz of the age. Don't want to force anything before I know the correct way :)

I've got confirmation that I have to cut the links in order to size the bracelet. The SS folded has cuts for opening and closing but the gold was to soft to make the same "c" like construction back in the days :)
