Is it any harder than finding the right one on flea bay and unscrewing and screwing the pins in? Cartier santos 2000 year.

Is there not spare links in your box?
Dig right to the bottom under all padding and warranty booklets.

Take the watch and link to a jeweller.
They will add the link in about 10 mins whilst you wait. Probably wont charge or if they do it wont be much.

It’s pre owned and just compared it to her current watch and looks like it’s going to be marginally too small. So was thinking of getting a link just incase so no probs come Christmas Day !

I got impatient and worried the matching link on fleabay would go so I bought it. I’ll report back after Xmas if I’ve needed to do slightly drunken watch alterations after santas visited.
