Using Your Forstner Klip Watch Bracelet
The Forstner Klip stainless steel watch bracelet features a refined ladder-link design and micro-adjustment clasp, providing a secure, comfortable fit from the first wear. Follow the guide below to become familiar with your adjustable stainless steel bracelet and ensure a perfect, comfortable fit from the first wear.
How to Put On Your Adjustable Forstner Klip Bracelet
- With your watch on your wrist, pull on the clasp end of the bracelet to tighten it to your desired fit. Once in place, a “keeper” section on the non-clasp end locks the fit, preventing the bracelet from loosening as you close it.
- Secure the clasp to one of the open ladder slots in the bracelet. The Klip clasp uses a spring-loaded push-button system — simply compress the buttons on either side and click into one of the open ladder slots.
Removing the Bracelet
- Press the buttons on each side of the clasp to release it. The keeper on the non-clasp end will hold your fit setting, preventing the bracelet from slipping off unexpectedly.
- To unlock the keeper and loosen the bracelet, let the clasp end hang freely, then gently extend the keeper from its locked position.
