Its nasty to do. Probably in the top 2 bad designs I have tackled. Use a pin extractor to force out the pin. Then a needle nose plier to pull out the pin. The links then need to be bent inward to about 30 degrees so that the lugs on the male end line up
with the gap in the female part of the next link. They are pretty stiff soI used a flat bladed blunt knife to ease them apart. I have a small watch tool kit and I think you will not get this apart without the right tools.
