Ladies Cartier Tank bracelet clasp. Where to repair?

[johnfm]

Anyone on here repair watches?

My wife has a carrier TF. The clasp no longer stays clicked shut and probably needs replacing.

Any idea where I can get a new clasp? Don't really want to send it off to Cartier as it really should be a simple job.

Cheers

Hi John,
The clasp probably requires a quick adjustment by a watchmaker. These do lose tension over a period of time. The watchmaker will 'adjust' the two shorter spans of the clasp which fold inwards. They will have opened up with use, and just need to be shortened. 2 mins tops...

Cheers Dom.

Looking at where it catches, I assumed it was a 'wear' issue where there is no longer enough material on the T shaped bit of the clasp to still 'click' into the T shaped hole.

I will ring my friendly Leeds based watch guy and see if they can do this in 2 minutes.

I assume it isn't a DIY?
