Hi gents,

I recently acquired 2 x 7Axx sample cases-one in stainless steel and the other titanium.

I read a note somewhere on here that the ends of the bracelets were finished in a strong glue (araldite?) to protect from theft.

My question is- how do I SAFELY remove the glue without damaging the bracelets?????

Thank you

Con

Carefully, Con. :P


Quite honestly I can't tell you. :/

All the sample cases with bracelets I have bought (mostly from 49Ronnie) have already had those black plastic end pieces removed.

Hey Paul,

So the grinder and the sledge hammer wont work? :D

Any chance you would have his contact details? Maybe I can ask him how he did it

Thanks again
