SOURCE: Croton automatic watch, band problem
Unless you have the appropriate tools for the job, it is likely that you will mark or damage the links taking them out yourself - any reasonable jeweller will be able to perform this service, normally only costing a few dollars at most. You could also return the watch to Croton to get this done if you prefer; http://www.crotonwatch.com/contact_us.aspx If you are still determined to do it yourself, then it is fundamentally just a matter of identifying the removable links (they will have a small screw head visible on the side), buy the correct size screwdriver(don't get a cheap one, it will do your watchstrap no favors) then it is simply a matter of unscrewing the link pins required, reassembling the pin where you wish to rejoin the strap - use loctite or similar to keep it from undoing, but be careful not to get this in the moving parts of the strap. if you can post a close up picture of the removable links from all sides, then i could talk you through it in more detail. Hope this helps :)

solutions already mentioned(casio wristband) worked for me. However the first link took me forever to remove as I found it hard to envisage what I what attempting. Attached is a pic of a disassembled link which hopefully might help someone....BPB

There are a few possible reasons why your watch is not working:
These are the 3 reasons why your watch could not be working. The reason will fall into one of these 3 categories, so I hope this helps!
SOURCE: Link pins keep falling out on Ceramic Watch
They probably forgot to put the little locking barrel back in before hammering the links shut again. Some watches have the link, the pin, and a barrel that goes in the link before the pin is hammered in. If your watch needs this barrel then the pin will NOT stay in without it, no matter what.
