Extending a ladies watch bracelet

[Santiago]

hi, I am trying to extend my wife's watch by using an extender of some sort as the extra links are not available. It has a H clasp on one end and a clip over on the other. I am aware that you can get extenders for H clasps on USA EBay but for some reason, not the UKEbay and postage to the UK is horrendous.  I have checked Cousins and can't find anything that would really do the job. Would anyone have any ideas? Would be extremely grateful......

A pic might be helpful then someone on the forum might be able to assist where to source.

Hope this helps. The width of the link is 5mm

That wasn't the easiest to make longer? Only thing i  could think of is if you could do the clasp longer? If there are any such buckles? Find a bracelet that looks the same would be difficult i think? 

What width does the buckle has?

Or put a deployment buckle there? Like on this ebay auction bracelet. Just an example.

I once solved this issue by putting on a 'double slotted' clip clasp in place of the single slotted, sure, you can't actually use the second notch, but it gives just a little bit extra length, might be enough?

Thank you for the reply. I did think the same thing and will probably give it go, but ideally I would like a bit more length. But many thanks for the idea

Anyone else any ideas....?
