Hi, my Seiko 7223-6010 kept falling off so, as it was a gift from my wife, I decided to retire it. Then I began taking an interest in watches so sourced new 1.3mm pins for the bracelet clasp. The first one fitted perfectly but one end of the 2nd went straight through the locating hole. It is the fixed end hole unfortunately. Then I discovered that the clasp is broken too. Bracelet is Z335 but I cannot source a replacement clasp. Any ideas?

Hi  If its a genuine seiko you want  try cousins in the UK or Jules Borel/esslingers in the states,  you may gain somthing from having a look at  "The Watch Site" they are predominatly Seiko Citizen  and have a market place for bits

The part that is broken is very common.  Just about any tri-fold snap clasp of the correct width, e.g. 16mm or 18mm, should fit.

The hole on the end of the buckle, where the other end of the folding part should be attached, looks strange.  I'm guessing this is the one the spring pin slides through?  It looks like maybe this buckle has been repaired by putting in a rivet pin, which caused the circular worn area around the hole.
