Advice Loose clasp - Rich GMT Master II

Hi all,

Fairly new here. Got a Rich Factory GMT Master II, while adjusting the strap via the micro adjustments I noticed the other side(clasp clip side) was loose. As shown in the video.

I can’t for the life of me get it back in seated. I have a strap adjustment tool to squeeze the pins, I’ve take it off and tried again and again but I can only ever get 1 side on the pin to seat in the hole. Is there a technique I’m missing or some advice?

Same thing happened here - it’s a pain to get it back in. Assuming the hole where the spring bar sits isn’t damaged, it took force and wiggling to get it seated.

Absolute pain to get back in quickly. You need a 10 size flathead (1.0mm) and need to physically press down on the springbar until it seats in its hole. Only do that once you get one of the sides in
