Removing Ceramic Sub Bracelet
Although it is probably on here somewhere, what is the best way/tools involved to remove the bracelet on a Ceramic Sub? Any good tips?
Thank you, |

A bracelet removal tool from bergeon will do the trick. You simply grab the springbar on both sides behind the little edge, squeeze them to the middle and gently pull the bracelet out at the same time. It's very easy

I wouldn't do it. You will always scratch your watch guaranteed

Have to agree like most things have the correct tool then the job becomes very easy to be extra careful put some tape on lugs.

Bergeon 7825, Period Dot! If you use a cheap "pen-style" spring bar remover it is the surest way to devastate the backside of your lugs. Nearly made this mistake - buy the proper tweezer tool noted above as it is the closest solution to the OEM Rolex tweezers. Otherwise, your 8k watch will have permanent damage.

I use the Bergeon 6767-F. It was like $14 on Amazon. The back of the lugs on my watch were a little scratched anyway so it’s not a huge deal to me at this point. You can use masking tape to combat this. Here is a you tube video I made about removal.

I use a #100 screwdriver and I remove/install these bracelets flawlessly. But then again I have a lot of experience as a watchmaker lol.
