I'd really like to find a stainless bracelet with solid links for my Seiko 5 (SNZD15K1)

I help understanding if one is available and how I'd go about removing my current folding links bracelet?  It appears that the case does not have drilled through holes.

Any direction would be appreciated.  Thank you

As always...I would like to suggest the watchadoo SS Bracelet...as for removing your current bracelet...if you turn the watch over, you will notice slots on the end links.  Place your knife, screwdriver, lug tool (or whatever) in there and press down!  Bada bing - bada bang - bada boom!

Thanks KenC,

So where would I go about finding a SS bracelet from this watchadoo fella?  I did a search and uncovered an E-bayer seller . . . same guy?

Also, what type of end piece is mine considered?  Basically what type of end peice would I need for my Seiko 5?

Thanks a ton!

you will have more $ tied up in the bracelet and having it PVD'd than in the watch Glock and more than likely the coatings will not match as the Seiko5 uses a ip plating ( $595. is the base price to PVD a watch case alone)..... it would be less expensive to just spend a little more on another Seiko w/a better bracelet like a Seiko Monster / Samurai and just put a strap on the Seiko5 imho...here is a link w/step by step instructions on how to remove a bracelet Buddy :)
