Post subject:  Breitling strap repair and back removal
I would appreciate some help how to repair the strap shown in the picture at

http://i.imgur.com/wBQnGJo.jpg

I have added notes to the picture but what I would like help on is:

How to:
Replace the missing broken pin on the right of the pic. What do I ask for? How do I get it out?
How to replace the clip. Where does it go on the strap?
How to get the 12 sided back off so that I can put in a new battery. I have ordered a watch clamp, but is that going to be enough?

I am also wondering about tools to replace pins. I have seen two types advertised. One type looks a bit like a pencil, the other is
a clamp with an internal pointer that is screwed into the pin to be replaced. I asssume the clamp type is easier to use, but which type should I buy?

Have I posted this to the wrong forum, because i think by now I could expect at least one response? If this is not the best place for such queries could you please suggest some other forums more suited to my question.

Since that's not a genuine Breitling strap, I don't think anyone here will be able to provide you with any insight. Generally I would recommend that you take any genuine Breitling to dealer to replace batteries since the case back is difficult to open. Having said that, the case back is for an automatic that does not use batteries - assuming the watch is even genuine.

Yes, you did post it in the wrong forum. No idea which forum to suggest, l'm not into fake watches.
