Tommy Hilfiger Quartz Watch Band Link Replacement

Introduction

Use this guide to replace the watch band links on your Tommy Hilfiger Quartz Watch wristband.

Watch band links are rivet lug components that hold together the wristband and allow the watch to fold. There are often cases where these links need to be removed or added, and performing a dedicated replacement with a few special tools can help you accomplish this.

Before using this guide, it would be preferable to have a general idea of whether you will be adding or removing the watch band links on your watch. The watch should be tight enough that it stays in place, with enough room for your wrist to breathe.

Step 2 focuses specifically on the removal of links. Step 6 is directed towards adding new watch band links.
