This video as a tutorial on how to identify, choose and then fit a new watch clasp. These are the 3 fold type that are fitted on many watches. There are some things you need to know in order to select the right one and fit them. I was replacing one of my own so decided to film it. Hopefully this may help others out there wanting to do this.

About me:
My name is Mike and I am a hobbyist watchmaker. I am completely self-taught in watch repair and restoration. My channel is all about my journey of hobbyist of watchmaking. I have watch repair tutorials, watch restorations and watch repair videos. Some of my content you can easily follow along to if you are working on the same watch movement. My main focus is to document my journey and inspire more people into this wonderful hobby and demonstrate that this hobby can be very rewarding. I do not profess to be a professional watchmaker and in my videos, I show all my mistakes, mishaps, highs and lows and keep everything as honest as possible. It is easy to edit all the mistakes out and make my videos look perfect but I believe that keeping it real reflects the true reality of this hobby. So, what are you waiting for? please check out my watch repair and restoration videos, get inspired and start your own watchmaking journey.
