Hi folks! long time reader, first time poster. I’ve just taken delivery of my new Santos Carrée, ref 2961. I’ve lusted over this piece for a LONG time...
No, but much like with good alcohol and quality food, it’s one of those rabbit holes I’d like to learn more about without falling too far down… the watch budget takes priority! 😅
Definitely something I’d be interested in getting educated in.
Thanks for clarifying the model name; I'll admit, I'm rather embarrassed as I'd watched a video where someone illustrated the differences between the two previously... and yet, when it came time to write the above, I still got it wrong! I've updated the post now.
I've been loving this piece thus far; took it in my watch roll for a few days away in Gdańsk with my partner, during the recent hot weather. Sitting outside in the old town with a good drink, watch glistening in the sun against the backdrop of such a gorgeous city was truly a marvellous experience. :)
Good news, I managed to figure it out, turns out, you need to push in a tiny spingbar in the middle of the back of each link, and slide the link out sideways. A little too tricky with a regular springbar tool, BUT I can confirm a small sewing needle worked perfectly (accompanied by quite a few swear words and some sweat).
Perseverance wins in the end.
Cant wait to wear this thing to the office tomorrow!
