Help/Advice adjusting Oris cotton candy bracelet

I just got an Oris cotton candy, and am in love with it. However, I cannot figure out how to adjust the bracelet. Looks like screws, but they turn indefinitely without tightening or loosening. I’ve found some Youtube video of folks adjusting Divers 65 bracelets, but the rivets looked different than what I see here. Is this pin and collar? If so, how do you adjust without scratching the heck out of the bracelet? I tried a pin remover, but the pin didn’t budge. There are no arrows, either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is it possible the screws are from both sides? You might need to prevent them rotating by having screwdriver on each side.

Thanks for the suggestion -- I tried that, but it didn't seem to work either. I haven't had any luck, and I don't want to risk scratching the bracelet, so it's looking like I'll just have to go somewhere to get it adjusted.

Yeah def doesn’t look like pin and collar. Both side screw meaning u gotta hold stable sounds likely. Good luck!

Closing the loop here, had it sized at an AD, and y'all were correct. Two tiny screws on each side that go into the main pin, and you need to hold one side fixed while unscrewing the other.

I'm loving it. The size is perfect for my wrist, the bracelet (while maddening to adjust) feels great and looks and feels "vintagey", and despite the faux patina against pink, the legibility is pretty darn good. Every time I look down at it, I just can't help but smile.
